Frozen policeman




Times2 did a very nice snow edition on Tuesday – must have been a bit different for those involved, since I imagine they are not usually required to work to the kinds of deadlines which apply to news

I was particularly taken by this photo [Masons News Service] of a policeman watching ‘British jobs’ protestors outside the Lindsey oil refinery in Lincolnshire. It is a picture which makes you smile, wince, & admire the fortitude


I am particularly intrigued by his helmet – I cannot remember seeing such a low-rise model being used by any other modern force
