A Fair Cop Guv. 30.06.2010.

30.06.2010.

Sir Hugh Orde, President of ACPO (Association of Chief Police Officers) and a former Police Chief was commented on the Home Sectretary's address to the annual ACPO conference in Manchester yesterday.
Theresa May revealed that cuts across the crime-fighting spectrum meant that public satisfaction targetting would be scrapped. Police needed to just fight crime rather than be seen to be fighting crime, she inferred. Sir Hugh suggested mainstreaming and sharing police resources and scrapping specialist units. 'We just don't have the numbers' he said.


We can't say 'we've got
your number' any more. We
don't have the numbers.
