#OxfordMidSummer Chat before Easter

 This is notes for a drink just before Easter.  I don't have characters clear yet, this may depend on how the improv takes shape. I think there are about four police or related roles. Balanced on leave / remain opinions but all concerned about support for police.

Main topic is something noticed in newspapers after the fines for PM and Chancellor. There is the start of criticism of the Met. Daily Mail editorial wonders "what motivates Scotland Yard to dribble out these fine notifications in such a piecemeal fashion" -  they should get it over and get out. Sun quotes an MP "The Met are yet again bungling this by dripping it out and prolonging this agony for everyone".

Opionions include whether the procedure is intended to delay main report till after elections and what else Met could do. Expectation id to proceed through approx a party a week.
