I have no sympathy for Tory Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell in the ongoing “Plebs” row. I still think he should go but , when I read The Sun’s report quoting the official police log why did it immediately conjure up images in my mind of shady deals in pubs between hacks and coppers as a result of notes written up after conversations in the police canteen?
Of course such images only stem from memories of the “bad old days” and do not accurately reflect the relationship between police and press in the 21st century.
Not at all….
