Norway, I think.

We just covered that's not a country.

Deffo not because Archers knows for a fact all of Scandinavia, Austria, Switzerland and a whole host of other countries have cops equal too or superior than the UK.

Best police in the world, by some distance.

Unfortunately post the massive reduction in police numbers I’m not so sure that’s still the case. The loss of detectives in certain areas is quite simply frightening, they simply can’t cope due to the workload. Any case that’s complicated and detailed they simply haven’t got the time to devote to putting a strong case together for the CPS, as their desks are getting constantly filled with cases that require immediate attention.

The situation is exacerbated by the fact that internal applications for detective roles have dropped right off, as plods are reluctant to put themselves through it, for the same basic but with the loss of shift pay. I feel really sorry for DC’s at the minute, and for many of the victims they’re dealing with, as they simply can’t provide the service they want to.

I like Welshie, he’s always been alright with me. He’s just another poster who generally goes against the majority so I get him <laugh>

He's never offended me either. I distrusted him at first, because he always seem to appear when Chaos disappeared, but I realised eventually that was due to Welshie keeping out of Chaos' way, so it was more due to me being a shhite with him, than the other way around.

Welshie - don't take that has me going soft ^^ I'll still ban your arse <laugh>

Yeah, there’s not enough of them, and not enough support for them from other agencies (lack of Mental Health beds being a case in point). They are left woefully ill equipped to do society’s dirty work.

Which makes their ability to police diverse cities with complex problems like London, Liverpool and Manchester, largely by consent and without routinely carrying arms, all the more remarkable.

I’m sure there’s a missing persons thread on here. That would be interesting to see who we’ve lost during the pandemic <peacedove>

That thread was closed, it appears people got sick of Sucky masturbating over the missing posters of Stan.

We need a new and improved thread I reckon

If we word it correctly and play nice, we might just be allowed to get away with it :emoticon-0105-wink:
