Captain Colonial Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Really sorry to hear this wuv, thieving scum is right, ridiculous that budget restraints and overall policy therein means police won't attend, then officers on the ground get the blame for bosses decisions, when policy means they won't attend for thefts on businesses, won't attend ringing alarms on businesses or homes, won't go on to gypsy sites to recover stolen goods because they're intimidated and won't attend when someone is making a racket and turning their neighbours lives into hell, it makes you wonder why you bother paying taxes, chin up wuv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff oakley Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Sorry to hear this Steve, but the police are now IMHO out of control and out of touch. We have caught a thief at work, all the evidence is there after two weeks still no sign of them. Car drove through the side of one branch in Luton, it was a black VW caught on camera, no action taken "why worry you are insured". If the police cheif constable was paid on conviction rates they would do something, but as it is they just spout the usual rubbish and do nothing. I know we have some officers on here, this is not aimed at them, it is the leadership who are at fault. The net result is people will take the law into their own hands and vigilanty justice is not correct, see the details of an innocent man burned to death in Bristol for that. We need to get back to having a police force whose hands are not tied by PC wishy washy types and supported by stiff sentancing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman Verona Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Steve, I take it that it wasn't your Transit but next doors. I may be a bit controversial here when I say the Police could almost certainly deal with budget cuts by less extravagance in spending rather than cutting manpower. I worked with one department in South Yorkshire Police for 11 years and there appeared to me to be a huge amount of waste and overspending. To put it another way if I'd run my business the way that department was run I would have been bankrupt pretty quickly. Someone said that society gets the police force it deserves.
