This government need to have a good look in the mirror at themself and think, what are we doing to this country.
They have now decided to reduce the pay of officers, not only have they cut the forces down to a bare minimum, they have now decided to cut there pay.
This will not only reduce the morale of officers on the beat to an all time low, but it will reduce the prospect of anyone thinking of joining the service, we need MORE police officers and PCSO's on the beat otherwise crime will go up, and who will win in the end - the criminal, as they will know that if they commit a crime, there will be no old bill to nick em'.
