POLICE officers have been sent to work at Marks & Spencer as shop assistants – to learn how to be polite.
It follows complaints about rudeness when officers are dealing with the public.
Lancashire Police Chief Constable Steve Finnigan has already had posters put up telling staff to “treat people as you would wish to be treated”.
He said: “I want Lancashire Constabulary to be renowned for quality.”
But the Police Federation, which represents officers, said it was “like teaching granny to suck eggs”.
