Re: Police Commissioners could earn up to £100k
 

yep painfully aware in most areas if not all full ex MP's for more troughing like a rampant pig. I think we should rename it obese westminster most end up fat off the land.

It still dont get why the wages so stupidly high as usual it will be jobs for the ****. What happens when all there is available not worth voting in due to lack diversity. Its often in my ward in council its 2 horse race either lab or con if hate either you goto voted hated party ignore it or abstain spoil. Should 3 main parties forced to post all condidates and selctive 1 other each ward giving diversity.

Maybe the people should take leaf out brucie's millions setup party NONE OF THE ABOVE get in power. Take the power back take on westminister on there own game.

Re: Police Commissioners could earn up to £100k
 

not as easy you think for starters Cost I certainly not got that sort money to throw down a toilet if did not get in. Wonder how many out there on cableforum could do it too its alot money for risk game.

although you will get it back if you get 5% of the vote share the deposit is returned.

For parlementary and local councils its £500

On top of that is your warchest canvassing required for the election so you talking possibly even on the cheap £100 on your own but you need some volunteers leaflets...

Its not cheap I know someone who done it said great experience but too costly. He fought for a local issue he was proud he got few votes but sadly not enough get his money back he felt message was not got simply down to lack funds he missed alot areas. He thinks deposits should be £50.

Now take this police comissioner lark seem they dont want any riffraf in there so the police one is staggering £5,000 for deposit. Damn thats some peoples wages for year why so high.

That would rule out 60% of the population classes from trying to win the police commisioner role. Clear who its marketed for certainly not the ordinary people to have voice on police.

My thought why cant we have commitee with all levels of community who upstanding citizens ie not known criminals or suspected and well respected from poorer areas.

Then they could influence where spending and targeting police action areas to improve those estates. Why has it have to be all huha henry's surely select commitee and public one with cross section far more better an individual who out to milk a cow.

They're so inept they're breaking the law now or given the fact she got away with it perhaps they think they're above the law. Total non job that should've been in the front line of cuts and probably would've been if it wasn't a useful dropping of point for failed politicians
