    Although the sum paid has not been disclosed, it is believed to be approximately £25k, so basically your niece would be mad not to get in there for a slice of the action.

        It might be worth noting that if she realy realy wants to be plod then this action may be detrimental to her career, though probably not
        I am not qualified to give the above advice!

          Strange thing is that she STILL wants to join plod ! (maybe she suspects her uncle is upto something dodgy )

            Nah, if that was the case she'd be signing up to HMRC

              In which case she should re-apply as a lesbian next time, and then sue them again.

                That's illegal!

                On racial grounds that is.

                One force has just been thumped with a big fine for doing the same thing, although in this instance it was because they dumped a load of applications from white men and kept the ones from women and minority racial groups.

                  It is indeed illegal, which is why I don't believe Eternal Nomads story. It's one of those "Daily Mail" urban myths.

                    speaking of 'what is this country coming to", thats kinda what some 49yr old in Derbyshire said when his council refused to rehouse him, his 13 kids (+1 on the way), wife and mistress (!) on the grounds that he was in their biggest house already.
                    Obviously he works hard to support his fami.....oh i'm sorry he doesn't. He gets £2k a month benefits - go on, hands up if you're surprised. I'll tell you what mate. Keep your fcuking dcik in your pants, get a job, pay tax and THEN come and talk to me you scum.

                    Ooooh i could crush a grape.....

                      Why are you angry with him? If a system exists, people will use it. Blame Clement Attlee - he started all of this crap welfare state bollocks.
