Cops, bobbies, the Old Bill, Rozzers – there are plenty of nicknames for the police. But in Northern Ireland, they’re often called Peelers. So where did the name come from?

'For Real' is it ? You don't think the presence of a camera crew and a prominent TV presenter alters the dynamic of a police interaction with the public on both sides, do you, Stephen ?

Series one, his presence on scene visibly escalated several of the situations to the point of taking officers from the matter in hand to watching out for him. I only hope this is the final series.

Is Peelers available today ? They've kept that quiet.

Stormont behind the times ? Surely not.
Still waiting for the holiday hunger debate as MLAs still talking about flags and emblems. Stormont proceedings well behind the planned timings.

Jim Dowson wants all the Prods riding. I can't imagine that's a mental image that's doing to put lead in many pencils.

Well, there are options open to Jamie. He can join the TUV and seek election next May, he could join the DUP and seek elected office and challenge the leadership, or he could form his own party and seek election there. Otherwise he's just another commentator.

Nice to see Stormont going back to the old order of the party leader at the microphone for a statement, with half the party gathered round them looking dour and solemn, with hands clasped in front of their crotch.

The purpose, presumably, being to outwardly convey party unity and solidarity, even though it generally looks more like they're about to break into a medley of 'Songs from the Shows'

Needs to work on his material.
Jim Allister has mocked Gavin Robinson over his fondness for Haribo, warning the DUP leader that a new poll showing falling support for his party should serve as a “rude awakening”. Read more: tinyurl.com/nharfes2

On any level 'Someone says O'Neill must go, Gavin says 'Oh no, have a Haribo' is a fucking atrocious attempt at a joke

If only political parties would run all their decisions past the Tele for approval ...
Excellent analysis of Alliance's drastic decline. It should have entered opposition in 2024 (or, alternatively, secured a tangible price for entering government). Once the party offering an alternative to the Executive, now it's at this failing Executive's heart.

An immediate Stormont Levy on Padel, podcasting equipment, Hyrox, golf clubs, and carbon fibre bikes.
Ferraris, Bugattis and £4.5m mansions: NI’s vast wealth that Stormont resolutely refuses to tax... while claiming it’s broke. One in five new cars in NI is a premium or luxury brand as Northern Ireland’s rich live in opulence while public services crumble. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/comme…

That would severely curtail his access to media, though, especially during election purdah. And splitting the Unionist vote so many ways in Upper Bann would likely result in 2 SF MLAs

THR reports that two mystery actors, not one, are in the running for the role of James Bond, in addition to Callum Turner, Jack Lowden and Josh O’Connor. The two mystery actors are described as “notable and established names.” (view.mail.hollywoodreporter.…)

What 'Peelers' could have been ...
This piece to camera went so far off the rails so quickly. Filming in Niddrie on bonfire night… cameo by Police Scotland’s finest.
