“The next Chief will be a 'placeman' of Hogg, he will have to agree with everything Hogg wants, or the Chief will be out the door. No more independent Chief Constables.”

“What on earth is Kevin Lavery doing on the interview panel ? The post is supposed to be non-political and Mr Lavery is the most political person imaginable!”
