There are so many issues with this that it boggles the mind

  • Police cosplaying military
  • Doing anything with Dubai
  • Hanging out with war criminals
  • The police board was unaware of the trip until it was reported by the CBC
  • It cost 15K

You forgot we somehow talked Dubai into covering 100k off the cost

The Police Department is asking for a budget increase

How is it vital training but somehow only London went?
