This is what is going to happen to the police service in London. Due to cutbacks the Met Police is having to find major cutbacks and people will almost certainly lose there jobs. Remember the Tottenham riots several months ago, well l was there and it the most scariest thing that l ever saw and the government want to cut policing.
You cannot have a private company run this sort of work its totally impossible, look what happen at the Olympics, total chaos.
WE need to do what they did in America, they DOUBLED there police service, and we should be doing the same here.
Next time you call 999, see what happens then. Crime will almost ceratinly go up, and the general public, thats you and me will feel unsafe when you walk the streets.
I called the police yesterday, when l was in Hounslow and no one turned up as they had no officers spare - this is what is happening in London - so if you think thats complete rubbish, think about it.

999 will probably have a fee attached the company citing it has to balance the books.

Loopholes can be closed on the existing system as well, it doesnt require a flat rate to do that.
