Greater Manchester Police to review 11000 FAC holders

[Christel]

Sixshot... That story wasnt worth the wait...
Couldnt you have made something up so it was a bit more exciting? :)
Something like you used to be a bank robber and the FEO visit was arranged whilst on a job?

Who do you think I am, Terry Pratchett? Maybe I could have a story where I fall down a rabbit hole into an alice in wonderland type place where All Firearms departments are just too and the laws are just (we have pistols, centrefire semis and no knee jerk reactions) or would that be too unbelievable?

Oh I wish razz

So me being a bank robber on the jobs and the visited arranged whilst on the job would have been more believable? Makes sense.

I am guessing the "decisions" relate to FAC holders with "domestic" allegations.

The key word is allegations, we have allegations until investigations, etc bring up the truth of the matter showing said allegations are substantiated.

Not quite. In this case "decisions" could very easily be followed by "... to grant/renew".

If I get time next week I might waste quarter of an hour on the phone to the GIMP press office and see what their fob-off excuse is. North Yorks really, really didn't want to talk about what their employee had done.

It's all north of Watford :P

So taking one step north of Watford being north of Watford. The main thing is South Yorks police screwed up and it seems GMP (or GIMP as your called them ) seem to have also screwed up big.

It's all *north of Watford :P

ONLY a valid comment if * is read in a General Melchett voice
