Rejected petition Extra funding to the police to increase the safety of all U.K. Citizens.

With many police stations being unmanned and complainants waiting several days for a police response into crime, we the citizens of the UK demand that the government take steps to increase funding to the police to improve the efficiency of this public service for our protection against crime.

I have personally waited nearly 4 weeks for my son to give a statement in relation to an attack on him, and we continue to wait!

I am not blaming the under resourced and over stretched police force for this failing. I am station that the government needs to do something about the inadequent policing of the UK.
