I'm sure we could avoid the worst of the American system of elections, I think we manage it with the national and regional government at the moment.
I agree ,i would much sooner see the head of the police answerable to the general public instead of politicians.
One question though ,are the new commissioners replacing a managerial level or adding one ?
