        @BBCNews A slap on the wrist maybe, a caution possibly! But the sack?? No wonder we haven't got enough police to fight real crime!

        @BBCNews This is ridiculous and just an excuse for avoiding redundancy pay. Disciplinary, possibly, but gross misconduct??? Never. Shameful.

        @BBCNews @BernardMcEldown what are the laws on gambling in public buildings, is a licence needed. If so criminal charges needed.

        @BBCNews police officers claiming for overtime not worked us in my opinion more newsworthy as its effectively theft and at least dishonest!

        @BBCNews I find it difficult to understand how such people are employed in the 1st place. Maybe, Psychological Testing is the Answer
