Curiouser & curiouser
Inspector Gadget’s new book “Perverting the Course of Justice” is out, published on 2nd September.
There’s a little bit of concern over at the Inspector’s blog at the moment. The last post is a reference to not trusting Professional Standards Departments and a previous entry about the book has been deleted from the blog.
Over 100 comments on the latest entry express concern, worry & support & much hand-wringing over whether the Rubber Heel Squad have finally nailed the good Inspector.
Gadget himself has made no response to all to the comments & his publisher, Monday Books, has made two two tantalising comments about not being able to contact him & then a very hurried call.
Â
It’s all very strange.
Update: The publisher has heard from Gadget & is not so worried, Gadget advises of hectic 24 hours, more to follow…

Just ordered my copy, already got “Wasting Police Time” and “Diary of an on-call girl”. My handle suggests I am on the inside, so to speak, so some of the stories come as no surprise to me (and isn`t that the most shocking bit of it). I look forward to Gadgets revelations.
Can I plug just one small book which highlights very clearly one of the causes of the rot in our police and other public services:
“The Retreat of Reason” by Anthony Browne
Available from the Civitas website for just £3.00 (plus P&P) currently. If you hate political correctness then this will become your bible, prayer book and manifesto for change.
How come Scotland and Wales are making all the right choices and England is still miles behind?

I’ve read Gadget’s book and cannot recommend it highly enough. It sums up what is wrong with law and order in the UK. Be careful if you suffer with high blood pressure though, it might just make your blood boil!
