Jeebus.
Maybe I should be entitled to a job as a profesiionnal basketball-playing surgeon. It's discriminatory that they think they can't employ me just because I am short, horrendously unfit and have no background in medicine.

Sajad Suleman, 35, admitted he could not move his arms or legs when he applied to be a Mobile Surveillance Officer but still claimed he should have been the "preferred candidate" out of the 1,092 who applied.

He said the role – "all about observing people or places either on foot or by vehicle" – could have been adapted and he could have travelled and tracked targets by train, coach or taxi.

Is this a joke ?
No really ?

'Suleman said: "I knew the mobile surveillance officer job was active. They sent you out, sometimes to different countries to spy on someone. You are out on the front line, but it was right up my street.

DOH!

I think it's quite clear they didn't discrimiate against him because of his disability...

Its because he isn't white.

so what would he do if the suspect he was following went up a flight of steps?

It's cost £9k to defend this action? Fookin hell, how cheap would a bullet be? Save the taxpayer on dishing out some benefits too...
