The police have a hard job, and being understaffed doesn't help. It's not just the Judiciary who cock things up, the Crown Prosecution Service throw a lot out before it even comes to Court. There is no fully manned police station in Accrington. There was years ago, when there were not the drug/drink problems that there are now.

Perhaps Councillor Jones would like to tell us where the money is coming from to pay for all the extra police when/if we get a Labour Council? - Council Tax, of course, is the answer, and a huge rise is the solution to it all - except how much would be wasted on "consultation" and "administration? I think this is where we came in .....
