The Making of a New Police Service

We all have a vision of what we intend to do when entrusted with a position of responsibility, don’t we? So is it that when Theresa said she‘d give us a ‘new’ Police Service, we did not begrudge her in any least way for thinking so, after all, she, unlike Boy Nick, appears to be fully in charge of her ministry. But when she said she‘d equally cut, cut and cut their spending we say, “hang on a sec.”, how can the police give their utmost to the British public with a lean budget, bearing in mind that if you give your workforce ‘two pence’, they will give you ‘two pence’ service?

Enter: Theresa, with your tough decisions to save police jobs and cut crime.

Celebrating police officers

I want to talk today about the tough decisions we need to take as we reform the police. But I want to first recognise just what a tremendous job individual police officers do day in, day out.
