[UK] Two police stations branded "Unfit for human habitation"
7 replies, posted
Oban police station has been branded the worst in Scotland after an inspection of police buildings.
The mould-covered property was called "unfit for human habitation" by the Scottish Police Federation, which carried out an investigation into conditions in the police estate.
It claimed the stations in Lochgilphead and Oban should be "closed immediately" over public health concerns.
Police Scotland says it was addressing the issues raised by the federation.
Officials from the SPF said they found dreadful conditions at several premises during a "deep dive" inspection of L Division, which covers Argyll and Bute and West Dunbartonshire.
SPF general secretary Calum Steele told the BBC's Good Morning Scotland programme: "It's almost difficult to put into words just how horrific some of the conditions were that our officials found.
"Oban police station has been described as the worst police station any of our officials have had the misfortune of ever stepping foot in - and they have experience of the police estate across the totality of the police service of Scotland.

Clearly not had enough austerity to save the money to fix all that /s
This is a really sad situation, clearly there's a severe mismanagement of funds or there's just not enough going towards law enforcement.
Jokes are meant to be funny, this is just insensitive and stupid.
Hey this what decades of austerity does
It's really 90% the latter. The Tories are killing the UK and that's all there is to it really.
Are those mushrooms growing on the towel?
Yikes, the place must of been in bad shape for a long ass time...
They were just testing shroom cultivation methods officer
