NO2ID - Stop ID cards and the database state
 

 

 
A very simple award this week, an arrogant, smart-arse cyclist who thinks that because he can string a couple of sentences together and is a right-on, environmentally responsible road hazard, he can do as he damn well likes and get away with it.
 
The video, shot by the Wanker's helmet-cam, is too big to embed on this page so you'll have to click on this link and watch it on YouTube, sorry. Odd, isn't it? When we were young we used to call policemen “nippleheads” because of their helmets. Now it's this self-righteous road-criminal who's a bit of a tit.
 
Watched it yet? All right, the copper's a bit of a spoon, but we can't all be towering intellects, and he obviously knows enough to tell when someone's jumped a red light. The most distasteful thing about the video is not that someone argues with a policeman – I'm sure we'd all be prepared to do that if the circumstances required it – but the fact that this Lycra lout is so bloody pleased with himself - “Ooh, look at me, I can tie a poor ignorant plod in knots, aren't I clever?”
 
Well no, you tit. You're not clever at all. You're objectionable. And you're our Wanker of the Week. Go on, feel pleased about that.
