We’d have heard this story a hundred times before if it happened
The sort that jerk off to secretaries striped down to their skimpies on their lunch break?What kind of sicko creeps round a park videoing women sunbathing and then posts it on social media?
We’d have heard this story a hundred times before if it happened
As it happens, I have some experience of police raiding a lock-in.
Back in the Eighties, when I worked on London's Evening Standard, the pubs didn't open until 11.30am.
The Cartoonist pub, behind the office, would always let us in early for a gentle White Shield Worthington.
In one of the few recorded raids for before-hours drinking, the doors burst open at 10.45am and in stormed a sergeant and a couple of Plods.
They proceeded to take names. Who are you and what do you do?
'Shaw, Old Bailey correspondent, Evening Standard.'
'Littlejohn, industrial corres- pondent, Evening Standard.'
'Leith, transport correspondent, Evening Standard.'
'Stevens, chief crime correspondent, Evening Standard.'
Turning to the other member of our school, the sarge said sarcastically: 'And I suppose you're the religious affairs correspondent of the Evening Standard.'
'No, I'm the head of the Flying Squad. Now sod off!'
