You've gotta laugh.(Why?)Well,you just gotta.(Stiff upper lip,these Irish johnnies know nothing of pluck and British spunk).Free Tibet.
Sounds like you'll get a PCSO. I suppose they might as well be doing something useful instead of impersonating real policemen.
I wouldn't put it past the bastards to wait until you've drawn out your readies and then mug you.
When I grew up in Snaresbrook and Wanstead, crime was never a real problem.
I suppose it is an indicator of how relatively safe the place still is. Main problems are caused by the drunken jobs who come in from rougher parts to enjoy the couple of bars in the high street. The Cuckfield being the main "Stand up" nightmare.
I started drinking in The Cuckfield in Wanstead in the mid 1970s and at that time the most likely cause of injury at closing time on a Friday night was the police randomly picking people up off the streets, throwing them in a Transit and then kicking the shit out of them in the back. Happened to me several times.Oh the nostalgia, no knives or guns, just good old fashioned police size 11 boots accompanied with fists.Simpler times...
Tim Worstall has a piece about the police taking £67k from someone .. .. .. maybe this plan is an attempt to speed up the process?
If the rozzers were doing their job in the first place, we wouldn't need an armed escort to go to and from a fucking cash machine.
The key lies in "one" surely? If a sole plod were to walk around anywhere in what they term "front line" areas they'd not last pissing time.
Let's phone up the rozzers at the same time and ask for an escort. Then, we all go and withdraw a tenner from the ATM and when we're home, thank them for the effort and close the door in their faces.
Result.
You don't get the idea OH. They escort you to the cash point and then they take the money off you for themselves.
Keeps crime figures down as well.
ok if we do have more police to do this. Is there a point tho where it would be nice to have less police and less crime.
