again, my point wasn't so you could think of what Google "could do". But, rather contrast what Google might reasonably do and contrast with what the police might reasonably do.

But hey, feel free to over-react on google, but not about lack of gov. oversight.



Well I thought that was pretty reasonable. But since you disagree, lets look at what is actually happening now.

The youngest MP for a few hundred years was elected the other day. Her name is "Mhairi Black". Google her name, and see what you find on the first page.

Now, what have Police Scotland been up to....The last thing I remember seeing was a complaint about their ridiculous policy of sending armed officers to events that clearly didn't require them. They apologised and gave assurances that armed units would only be sent out in response to specific incidents.

Or do you mean personal interaction with the police? Last time I saw our local policeman, it was because his young son was scared of dogs as a big dog had knocked him down while playing. We took our puppy round so he could pet him and get over his fear.

I'm not sure what lack of government oversight you think there is. Holyrood is under constant scrutiny, not least by those who'd like to see it abolished!
