Alasdair was eating when Bill asked the question "simple, weve all made mistakes in our lives and done silly things. No one in this world is perfect". He sat back for a moment and spoke once more "the Constabulary way of policing is changing, its becoming more hearts and minds. I'm a great believer in if you hit a dog one....the dog knows it's made a mistake....you hit a dog repeatedly the dog just thinks your an arsehole" he continued "I want the police force to change and I want whitby to be at the forefront of it. I want people to realise that the police force while it is there to uphold the law it is also there to help people in their hour of need".
He continued to eat before answering bills question "its not a question of being kind my friend. Its a question of understanding. The majority of people pass through my cells here are teenagers, young adults with a chip on their shoulder and something to prove. Your a family man who made an honest mistake when his temper got up. No disrespect but to me that's not worth the time and effort for paperwork to get you charged. It's not worth putting that on your record for a bar fight that won't be remembered by tomorrow morning. So as I said my friend. Its not about being kind. Its human understanding"
