For all those who think every single member of the Police spend all day doing nothing more than hiding behind bushes with a speed gun Greater Manchester Police are tweeting every single incident they deal with for a 24 hour period.

Some complete waste of time calls already and some of the more 'sensitive' jobs won't be published but I reckon it's a good idea and should create a debate about what the police deal with (the general rule right now is if it's on fire call with fire brigade, if it's bleeding call an ambulance. For everything else call the police) and if they should be concentrating on the core stuff.
