So round Sat Nav's way, always in the right apparently, the problems with policing was them filling out too much paperwork, so the giv saw fit to sack a load of them. Isn't this the same MET that's been branded institutionally racist and corrupt and has been mired in.scandal after scandal, such as Wayne Cousins etc?

I dont think paperwork is the issue with policing in London.

Concerns have been raised that Police Scotland's plan to cut civilian staff could negatively affect frontline policing.

The force has launched a voluntary redundancy scheme in a bid to save money.

Civilian staff seeking either voluntary redundancy or voluntary early retirement will be able to apply from 8 January until 9 February.

The chair of the Scottish Police Federation (SPF) - which represents rank-and-file officers - is fearful that the cuts could have a knock-on effect that will hinder those on the frontline.

David Threadgold, chair of the SPF, told Sky News that he is concerned that officers on modified duties that aren't on the frontline may be relied upon to cover any shortcomings which will then affect the rest of the service.

He said: "If these functions that the people are leaving [are] required to be done, it can only be done by one other group of people and that is police officers.

"So, it will be a further impact on the service that we can provide, the resource that we have, and you might well have a situation where we end up paying police officer wages to carry out functions that might not have been at that level if it was carried out by a member of support staff."

Seriously this lad doesn't have a clue what he's on about.

Breaking🚨

The UK government has banned the private prescription of puberty blockers for children.

This, coupled with the recent NHS ban, means that no new children in the UK should be able to access the drugs.

Good, let children be children. Nonsense to allow them in the first place

Not that they’d send him to jail if he was guilty but the logistics of it would be interesting if he was given the secret service have a mandate to protect him. So they’d have to also go jail Lol

he former president could also be sentenced to a term of probation, raising the bizarre possibility of the former commander in chief reporting regularly to a civil servant at the city’s Probation Department.

He would have to follow the probation officer’s instructions and answer questions about his work and personal life until the term of probation ended. He would also be barred from associating with disreputable people, and if he committed any additional crimes, he could be jailed immediately.

Barred from associating with disreputable people

Wouldn’t be allowed to speak to congress then

Looks like Dems already hit 80m so that 80m won't be enough for Trump.

I also reckon they hit 90m this year minimum.

Keith has just suspended the candidate that nearly beat IDS in the last election, on the same day he’s parachuted his mates into the safe seats that have been vacated. What an absolute shambles Labour are.
