Police
Reprinted from Ideological Commentary |
The Independent (30 April) has a front-page article and two inside pages on police corruption. A week or two earlier in the Sunday Times Books section John Stalker, himself a high police official until he got up against the RUC, spoke of police corruption as an accepted fact. The establishment of a police force overcomes the limitations entailed in being without it, but only at the cost of incurring those that come with it, and these include the risk of crooked coppers.
