Woman police officer done for speeding

Posted by Rob Irvine on June 26, 2008 4:38 PM | 

83mph in a 40! Through the roadworks! Tut, tut. The boss wouldn't be happy.
It's especially bad news if your boss happens to be the man dubbed by the Daily Mail as the leader of the Traffic Taliban, one Chief Constable Richard Brunstrom.
As things stand, policewoman Jacqueline Edwards' appearance in court today (she got a 50-day ban) is going on tomorrow's front page.
After a quiet-ish week there are some strong stories around today. We've some fantastic news about 300 jobs being created in Bangor.
Read about the rather bizarre request that the boys in blue have made to lock down Rhyl's pubs after the town's footballing finest entertain Irish side Bohemians this Saturday.
Page three is devoted to touching tributes to a brave little girl from Anglesey who has lost her fight with stomach cancer. Thanks to her family for sharing their story with us.

Best picture story of the week? Hats off to our sister paper the North Wales Weekly News for the amazing image of the blazing bus in Conwy yesterday. We've now popped it on our website but they certainly scooped us today!

Things are moving on apace over our plans to create a Welsh language news website. More news follows soon.

Brickbats for Conwy's traffic wardens. Booking people's cars in the nine-tenths empty car park in Deganwy the other night. Shame on you. And what has Conwy council got against Deganwy? The business rates have killed off half the shops, the Chinese restaurant is made to sweat over their expansion plans and the car park fees have gone through the roof.

No fear of Conwy council workers having to pay for parking at Bodlondeb - it's still free on weekdays!
