beach bar singer on the Isle of Wight has been arrested for performing the song Kung Fu Fighting. Simon Ledger stands accused of racially aggravated harassment.
He was entertaining a crowd enjoying the Easter sunshine when a man reported to be of Chinese origin took offence at the lyrics and complained to police.
Mr Ledger was subsequently interviewed and is now facing formal charges.
Over the years, I’ve made a decent living lampooning the lunacy of modern policing.
But this case takes the crispy pancake, even though there was plenty of competition from police forces all over Britain yesterday.
