    What's your point? What's the difference between a low paid police officer and any other member of the community doing a second job to make ends meet?

    Up to them what they do with their spare time. Really nobody else's business.

    Plenty of second jobbing on the Hill (some clowns too)!

    And written in a way to induce ridicule.

    Why not say 'some policer officers are having to take on second jobs as childrens entertainers and in pubs to make ends meet'.

    I just happen to like ridicule - as long as it isn't me you're ridiculing because if it is I'll have to call the PSNI on you. :cool:

    Depends on how much you earn. :cool: :beer:
  • Clowns and fitness instructors - must be highly talented public servants if this isthebest they can do when left to their own devices. My heart bleeds for their low government wage.
