London Police Corbett

In total 1,136 emails were sent out on Monday, the Metropolitan Police said.
Yep, another case of CC: instead of BCC:
Of course, it’s not a Full Corbett, because the Met has actually apologised, and will write to the people involved, explaining what happened. Let’s hope they use BCC this time…
*wonders what make of car the officers responsible drive*
It could all be a way of reducing the Victim Support bill of course… now they’re all in touch, they can set up their own eSupport group. It will probably do a much better job than the official one….
