PUBLIC and press indignation greeted the 159mph policeman's escape from punishment. Why?

Railway workers get ticket concessions, retail workers get staff discounts and MPs guarantee themselves generous, index-linked pensions. Surely, this is just another perk of the job?

What do old age pensioners get - legalised NHS euthanasia?

It's a funny world.
