South Yorkshire Police (AGAIN !)

Committee chairman Keith Vaz said: "South Yorkshire Police's handling of this situation was utterly inept. The force allowed itself to hand over sensitive information to a journalist and granted him privileged access to the execution of a search warrant.

"The email exchanges could easily be mistaken for a script from The Bill. The force should have refused to co-operate and explained to senior BBC News executives why the premature broadcasting of a story, which they claimed the journalist threatened, would have prejudiced the investigation."

Mr Vaz added: "No British citizen should have to watch their home being raided by the police live on television. Sir Cliff Richard has suffered enormous and irreparable damage to his reputation and he is owed an apology over the way matters were handled.

The committee said police sometimes decided to publicise the name of the subject of an investigation for operational reasons - for example, to encourage potential witnesses to come forward, but it was wrong to do so otherwise.

Sir Cliff won't be back that's for sure.

But what will he do, and what about promotional activities for the calendars and CD and DVD box sets planned for future release?

Why wont he be back? As far as we know, he has done nothing wrong and I think they might have underestimated how popular he is.

He's starting his tour in Sheffield, honey! - then if he gets arrested (lol !) he won't have to do any more dates !!!

... and he celebrates his 75th birthday during the tour (Oct 14th).

Shocking behaviour
