This petition was submitted during the 2015 to 2017 Parliament
Rejected petition Invest in the Police Force and stop cutting funds and officers!
Rejected on
Theresa May and other politians have no idea what is happening in the real world around them and think everything is all statistics. They just want to fill their fat pockets whilst the rest of the country lives in fear from domestic or foreign threats.
Merseyside police are losing up to 40% of their force since 2010, this is not on! Other forces are also feeling this pressure. Something needs to be done and we need to see more officers on the street.
