200 coppers? What a waste of resources IMO.

200 Police

19 Arrests

0 Convictions.
All will get a p1ssy fine or community service, if that.

Waste of time & money.
Bet they had the speed camera vans there too. A profitable day then

Quote" Criminals are like everyone else in that they need to use the road network to ply their trade. By working with our neighbouring forces and partner agencies we will be able to show them that nowhere is safe." Unquote

And what about the rest of the populous, who are plagued by gangs of yobs and streetcrime?


200 officers on the beat would have been far better!!!


If they had half a brain they could have done the same job, with 8 officers 2 arctics, and some crash barriers..., with extra resources brought in as needed.

that's a tough one for the crims to work out then...

ANPR... Hmmm - if we use our own cars/ vans/ registration plates then we might get caught...

Let's try to find a way round that one... err...
