Well considering that if he were to fall and break his neck, I wonder if the taxpayer would have had to pick up his huge disability/pension bill?

A fruitcake, he really is.

I think he was checking that new radar that can track the speed over every car in Wales and issue a ticket in less that 3 seconds.

Top Cop ? in this instance a top liability

Actually I have a bit of admiration for the chap for doing this. To hell with health and safety.

it would of been funny if one of his men had seen him doing it and tasered him and watched the tw@t fall and injure himself. Question is would he get a pay out as he has deliberately put himself in this danger

have to say i agree with that. the bloke might be a prat but at least he does what he says. if the sensible CCs did as much to promote their ideas the police farce could regain some respect.

But if he managed to break into the station, then does the buck not stop with him for failing to secure the station properly?

Shouldn't this be in the Bat Man thread?


If I did that then H+S would crucify me.

Perhaps the act was valid.
Did we really need to hear about it though? I wonder who leeked he story to the press, or invited them along.

Have to say fair play to him, and I wonder if many of the comments/sentiments would be posted if it wasn't Brunstrom?

If we'd been here discussing "Brunstrom's Cop Shop Turned Over In Middle Of Night" he'd be the villain for it not being secure.

Taken in isolation I would say this is the actions of a practical person. He wanted to test the security of a building and to prove a point he broke in.

Point proved in my eyes

So sorry i can't berate him for his actions

Nor me, in fact it's good to see someone actually doing something for once...just a shame about some of his other "antics"!
