Author's Remarks:
15,000 Pounds compensation? Really! Yet some delicate flowers upset by a rude or uncaring remark made to them or even overheard at work, and often significantly so in the public sector, get tens, and even uncommonly quite literally really hundreds of thousands of Pounds in compensation. Absolutely quite barmy!
All the same it's my honest belief that in cases like this one the offending police officers should be the ones paying such compensation out of their own pockets, rather than the money coming out of the public purse.
Keep it in the family; the apt intention but quite disconcerting belief of those who asininely but strongly believe in their perverse and repugnant delusions that they’re innately superior to everyone but themselves, and most precisely so those who have more melanin in their skin tone than they themselves possess!
