    I have realised that not everyone may have been able to read the whole story as you have to sign in, so....

    The Policeman was fined £4,200, disqualified from driving for 30 months, which along with the 15 month suspended prison sentance he is being hammered compared with most drivers convicted pf the same offence.

    He is subject to an internal disciplinary hearing as well which is where he will probably lose his job which also means that he will lose his pension as well which based on my Police pension is substantial not forgetting his lump sum which is many thousands of pounds.

    Is he not able to resign first?
    This always used to be option open to civil servants.

    No, they brought new rules in where officers are not allowed to resign if under misconduct or criminal proceedings
