All shook up

-

While Stuart Maclennan’s colleagues have been busy busting dangerous organised criminals, he has been busting lockdown dressed as Elvis.

The hapless PC – who moonlights as a DJ and singer – attended a 21st birthday party in a jumpsuit, wig and sunglasses.

In doing so, he clearly broke a number of the social distancing rules he is paid in his day job to uphold.

It is difficult to decide what was worse, his singing or the fact he could have been so stupid.

Lockdown has caused incredible stress for millions of people who have observed the rules for the good of wider society.

The economic fallout that is now coming down the tracks will mean many of them will pay for their public spiritedne­ss with their jobs.

The onus is on every police off icer to understand and follow the rules that they have been insisting everyone else abides by.
