Political puppets?

Efficiency.

This country’s police force was once renowned around the world for efficiency and fair play. For whatever reason this is no longer the case.
The Police Commission should address this as a matter of urgency.

Traditionally the police force in this country works to enforce the law, independent of government, whereas in Europe the tradition is that the police work for the government. This long held tradition in the UK appears to be changing and could have far reaching consequences.
The police should be independent.

Do you agree?
Independence.

The police should be independent. Do you agree?
The Government’s task is to get the legislation right. The Police task is to enforce the law.
Do you agree?
Zero tolerance.

The zero tolerance policing applied in specific areas has, in general, been received well by the public, but not favoured by the government except in respect of motorists.
The police are paid through our taxes to enforce the law. Why should “zero tolerance” not be the norm?

Do you agree with Zero Tolerance in respect of the following?
Assault
Burglary
Drug dealing
Drug use in prisons
Carrying offensive weapons
Gun crime
Human trafficking
Mugging
Rape
Smuggling
Weapon/knife crime
