Rejected petition Stop the proposed Policing cuts, perminantly
More details
The riots which have taken place across England, have now highlighted just how important the Police are in maintaining Law and Order.
The government are misguided in the assumption that cuts, no matter what figures and percentages are used, to policing numbers will not affect all police forces ablity to deal with crime and still produce the number of officers at short notice, such as seen on the streets of London. Thereby taking them away from their own regions.
These cuts over the next 4 years are ill conceived and the public derserve to be told the truth by hearing a debate in the house of commons.
