Comment by TUV leader Jim Allister MP:
“The contrast between how the PSNI treated two probationary Constables after the Ormeau Road incident and how those who brought the police service into disrepute in Camlough, is striking and telling!
“In this incident the officer at the centre of the controversy has many years experience, presumably holds advanced driving qualifications, knows that his Code of Ethics requires independence and yet continues on duty while an internal process proceeds. Whether that process has any credible outcome or whether ‘political’ considerations tame it, remains to be seen. But unionists concerned by prevailing two tier policing will watch with interest.”
