THERE seems to be no end to the political chaos effecting Police Scotland.

Even the number of players involved is becoming mesmerising; the Scottish Police Authority (SPA) board, the SPA’s former chairman, the SPA’s communications director, the Police Investigations & Review Commissioner , the Chief Constable, Deputy Chief Constable, Justice Secretary, senior civil servant and now the ex-Justice Secretary who could, in the circumstances, be considered the sorcerer’s apprentice who couldn’t control what he started.

Surely the situation has been reached where things have to got to change, either a Royal Commission should be requested or the Scottish Government returns to the drawing board and comes up with a model that works.

The colossus that is Police Scotland has not delivered the promised savings and has proved to be unmanageable in many different ways.
