This borough is supposedly strapped for cash. I for one would prefer more police catching real criminals than a couple of Crime Czars sorting out whether or not little old ladies have got smoke alarms. (oops maybe I shouldn't have said that. We'll be getting Smoke Alarm Czars next.)

KNOCK...KNOCK...KNOCK....Excuse me Madam, but have you got smoke alarms fitted.
Errr no officer....I don't smoke.....
Well you could have a fire...and..
Yes Officer I have an electric fire
Well madam it could go up in smoke..and then you'd need a smoke detector to protect your houshold.
AAhhhh Officer...we've got a good Budgie that squawks when it sees smoke
Sorry Madam, that will not do...now would you please accompany me to the Police Station where you will be formally charged.
Certainly Officer...however, the Police Station has just closed for the night, would you like to wait outside until morning???
AAHH I SEE A POTENTIAL CRIMINAL IN THE OFFING!! CALL OUT THE CRIME CZARS!!!!!!! FARENHEIT 451 HAD NOTHING ON THIS!!
