I was using PCSOs as an example.

This who thing reminds me of the fireman strikes a couple of years back in London. The Fire Officers (whatever they call them now) were on strike because apparently the cuts in the London Fire Brigade would threaten lives. Fair enough, if true.
However, a friend of mine worked for the brigade at the time, and apparently where the cuts would have happened, they thought it would make little difference. They were looking to cut evening and night cover in certain Central London and City areas. The reasoning being that these areas had millions of workers, but very few (if any) residents, so the only thing to protect from fire at night in those areas was empty buildings.
