    You could probably mess most of our cops about a little bit before it came on top. I wouldn't say that about the police in any other country I've been to. Except maybe Holland.

    What about Sweden? They're more like social workers there. They've invited so many refugees into their country, now, shock horror, they've got 'crime ghettoes', you couldn;t make it up.

    That might keep you thinking!

    I'll kick off: Educated, but not posh London accent.
