Police are handing out 'flip slops' to drunken women to help them walk home safely
Police said the flip slops were handed out after they noticed a number of women staggering home in inappropriate footwear. File photo
Naked would be better. They could come back the next day for their clothes, if they could remember where they left them.
Had too much to drink? Get a free pair of shoes and continue on your way.
Won’t the muzzies be offended by all those bare toes?
These “women” are disgusting. However, when the Muslim police take over the UK, they’ll just cut off their heads!
Quick! Get a video camera! She’s drunk and wearing flip-flops!
These “women” are disgusting.
However, when the Muslim police take over the UK, they’ll just cut off their heads....then they can’t drink anymore!!!
I have no doubt that after the very first complaint along such lines from a muzzie, a different (and more expensive) style of shoe will be substituted which will be more culturally sensitive.
What aren't they offended by?
Are these taxpayer-funded flip-flops for these hoes?
Since when is it the job of police to make sure the women are wearing “appropriate foot wear?”
WTF?
I see nothing has changed in the UK since I left. >:(
City and town centers are just giant ‘pissfests’.
Let’s see - poor choices and stupid behavior leads to consequences.
We could
a) Learn from the consequences and make other choices
or
b) Alleviate the consequences and continue the behavior.
B, of course, is what our present society prefers. And we see it in all aspects of life.
This is going to stigmatize all the non-drinking women who like wearing flip-flops.
Everyone seeing them will automatically assume those women are drunk!
Where are the PC Police when you need them?!? ;-)
BPE
Yes. From the article:
The footwear will be paid for by £30,000 worth of funding secured from the Home Office by Safer Communities Torbay.

When Socialists decided that it was Government's responsibility to 'address' any and every societal ill not by encouraging better behavior but by regulating or providing a physical object paid for by taxpayers.
How drunk do you have to be to soil your shoes?
How drunk do you have to be to soil your shoes?
Apparently it has become a problem of such significance that it requires Government intervention to alleviate it.
It seems to involve a level of chronic inebriation that I am wholly unfamiliar with.
Not in Torbay - there aren’t any.
And now it will most likely become a point of pride as to how large your collection of free flip-flops is.
Women will compete with each other to get the biggest collection as evidence of their 'party credentials'.
