The drink driving diplomats of Canberra

police

“CITYNEWS” has had its attention directed to a freedom of information release by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade on the subject of diplomats escaping from drink driving charges by way of diplomatic immunity.

While heavily redacted the number of cases over the last two years borders on terrifying.

Is it time for offending diplomats to be sent home rather than drunkenly careening down Cooyong Street at night with no lights on?
