RMT plan to strike over driver twice caught beered up

[Dedworth]

Well it's in the Telegraph - which is not much better than the Daily Snail

Funny how the biased BBC managed to mention false readings and diabetes and the Telegraph didn't

It depends who their sources were. I'd stick with the Mirror & Left Foot Forward Joe if I was you

Obviously more to this than meets the eye but one wonders if diabetes sufferers stopped by Mr Plod can demand a special breathalyser to be used before being hauled off to the Police Station

I don't think it's about a special breathalyser for diabetics Ded. If you blow a positive in Plods hand held machine he takes you down the station for testing on the more sophisticated machine. If that's positive then you're quite rightly and it's bye bye driving licence.
If you're going to nick someones job then you need to be sure. Secondary testing gets rid of all arguments. Why test the urine for everything apart from Alchohol

You're right Marco I agree. The Union should have done better PR though

Maybe the Telegraph's 'reporters' should have done a better job too.
