Attend what? I’ve never needed the police to attend anything in my life.

I imagine they’ve got a bit more time on their hands to do “keeping us safe” shit, on account of the fact that retarded scrotum-loooong sack-of-wank criminals are all at home sponging off their parents.

I've seen them with cameras on mountain bikes around the parks.

Also you have to remember the police numbers will seriously reduce as they get ill interacting with the public.

They are still human and still get the virus.

I will admit, I am getting truly fed up of the negativity of this country! From people being selfish and buying all they can so others have no access to them, to stupid uneducated criminals coughing on our emergency services, as a threat to their lives!

Yes, I hate this lockdown as most people would, but for gods sake get a grip people and also lock up as many scum as you can!

Absolutely agree.

And when while we are slagging off one of our emergency services lets not forget some members of Fab are Police Officers and how demoralising and horrible for them to read these comments when they are putting their health at risk too because selfish arrogant people cannot follow a simple request

They are on the frontline too as an essential service yet they are viewed so negatively

Why? Because cuts have consequences. Those consequences are less police, despite crime rates increasing.

Police up and down the country are not suddenly deciding to be present because they have nothing better to do. They are being pulled away from other investigations, stuck back in uniform, annual leave and rest days are being cancelled and they are expected (and will!) serve their country and do the best that they can in these times. There are not suddenly more officers on the beat, the same as when any other large scale event/attack or crisis happens- much the same as many other emergency service workers.

If any one watched bbc2 Tuesday night at 9 o’clock it don’t paint a nice picture from where I live .. the force cut by half in ten years, now more a social service than a force... it’s the monkey dust capital of england... and now this shit turns up .. if u like em or dislike em in normal times they are now there to stop civil disorder .. and protect the good people in these strange times, so isn’t it the responsibility of the good to help, surport and assist them in the time of a national crisis that is looming ? The choice is yrs and I know which side I’ll be on.. remember they are only human like me and you ...

Its probably because most police don't actually deal with speeding its normally contracted out.

Also I highly doubt you were doing 2mph over the speed limit unless you were in a 20 zone as you normally get 10% discretion.

If you cant spot a speed van or camera when doing "2mph" over the speed limit maybe you should consider slowing down, so you can actually see what's ahead of you

i dont actualy drive, it was ment in just, but im sure there is some truth in it, i tried to get them out to a burgulary a few years back, they just gave me a crime number, i know its not thier fault as they are very streached, its the cuts that have hurt them, the ones ive had interaction with do a great job, but the ampunt of paperwork they have to do it nuts

I suppose you could argue that road safety is essential, but in my opinion at this tie it is not the most important thing.

However, most enforcement camera vans aren't operated by the Police anymore. So Police time is already being used better elsewhere.

I have noticed more people are speeding on the roads, more than likely taking advantage of the quieter roads so yes it is essential more so than ever.

Also police in my area are stopping people querying why they are out.

Funny because they attended me when I rang on Sunday after finding a guy with a knife in my garden, here withing 10 mins and arrested the guy shortly afterwards not far from my house. They also attended when I had my car window smashed in years ago. 100% attendance rate here.

they’ve always been available when I’ve needed them too. Most recently when my elderly neighbour’s front door was wide open and there was no signs of him anywhere. I called 999 as I was very worried for his welfare, they arrived within minutes! It all turned out ok thank goodness

My best friend is a policeman and he tells me:

Even though the criminal element is still as active as usual, there has been a huge decrease in incidents involving the normal decent people. With so many people not going out, they are unlikely to become involved in anything which might require police involvement.

Mayb their all hiding under the bed lol or just maybe they’ve put some things on hold because the situation has changed and white collars have been changed for day uniform ? Maybe due to isolation there isn’t the same needs and daily crime occurring and need for investigation making more time to patrol which is necessary right now or they might have asked for cops to come back out of retirement too ? I dunno just general information in the press or on tinterweb that’s available for anyone to read justsaying
