Police boss criticised for 127-date theatre tour

Police and Crime Commissioner Colin Sutton, 65, faces criticism after announcing a 127-date nationwide speaking tour across England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Wight, and the Isle of Man throughout 2027. Detractors accuse him of going part-time and neglecting his professional duties to discuss his former career. However, Sutton's office maintains that the tour will occur during his own personal time and will not impact his official work responsibilities as a police boss.
