        @BBCBreaking Good, absolutely ridiculous what some officers are being dismissed for. Wouldn't even get a fine in a civilian hearing.

        @BBCBreaking managing people out of a job to hire more at half the price sounds like a corporate strategy

        @BBCBreaking Not massively clear from this headline - these are officers forced to retire under reg a19, not discipline issues.
