Lesbian Chief Constable Forces Bearded British Cops To Wear Beard Nets


Is she a lesbian Chief Constable or the Chief Constable of the Lesbians? Some of these old medieval titles can be hard to decipher.

In the immortal words of Richard Littlejohn, you couldn't make it up.A radically left-wing gesture like Davenport’s imposition of beard nets is just one more salvo in the agenda to emasculate men in public service, men who are already required to tread on eggshells as they defer the manifold layers of oppressed, wailing minorities above them.
A gesture so emasculating also serves to devalue an old institution like the police, with all its connotations of the preservation of a certain order. Can you imagine Sir Robert Peel’s original bobbies being told to wear nets over their beard for “health and safety” purposes?
Men who are expected to be ready at all hours of the day to mete out violence in order to keep criminals in check cannot be expected to submit to rules dreamed up in a conference room by a jumped-up jobsworth who happens to carry the title of Chief Constable.
If indeed Common Purpose are a malign foreign-influenced cult which seeks, as the conspiracy theorists say, to usurp British state for amalgamation into a federal, social-democratic European state, pursuing the aggressive demoralisation of the police would be an ideal strategy.
It’s a classic case of Gramsci’s edict that progressives should take a “Long march through the institutions.” Let us hope that the undoing of Common Purpose graduate Suzette Davenport and her zany policy of beard nets will come from a minority which has thus far been muscular in demanding religious accommodation: bearded, Muslim police officers.

FYI: For our American readers. a “jobsworth” is British slang for a petty official who over-zealously enforces the rules. Especially rules that seem particularly intended to vex and  annoy and generally thwart people from accomplishing anything useful, rather than assist and protect them. They have lot of jobsworths in the “civilized” and politically correct United Kingdom.
