Happier days: the képi as sported by Inspector Jacques Clouseau
Dalrymple writes:
Gone is the reassuring képi in favour of the moron’s baseball cap.
Many of the French police have given up trying to look the part and simply wear international slum-costume. They
dress in jeans with a black shirt with the word POLICE across its back.
This is not difficult to imitate,
and makes it impossible to know whether a policeman really is a policeman or a lout in disguise.
