I really can't see the harm in debating these news stories on here.
I thought there was a specific sub-forum for that? getmecoathehe

Although in saying that, SP&L does seem to have wandered away from it's original purpose and become NP&E 2.0 in recent years.

Of course not, you have referred, in this thread, to the police as knobs, morons, useless, stupid, implied they fit people up, and so on. But you don't intend any offence. rolleyes

And why have I made such comments? Perhaps because of this sort of thing:

No offence has been intended on my part.

This is patently not true. Trying to justify your abusive remarks because someone else started it (which is debateable) doesn't make your claim not to have intended any offence less incorrect.

Intention and outcome are entirely different.

Shall we return to the topic as suggested by mods instead of bickering?

Of course they are, but you've just replied stating you posted what you did in response to others perceived abusive posts. Clearly you intended to cause offense and saying you didn't is simply disingenuous.

Of course, I'll not mention this again, but please try not to post anymore untruths.

One topic closed and another with a warning from a mod.

I don't think I've seen that in the years I've been here in this forum.

Anyway, to bring the thread back on topic as suggested, this article was released earlier.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-36428171

I wonder how many crimes may have gone unreported as a result.

Anyway, back to the thread topic, resources are finite and perhaps they were allocated to this: http://www.stokesentinel.co.uk/Judge-praises-polic...

It's good to see a positive story. Although that particular force have missed a few calls since the date of the article (see my link above)

A reduction in budgets has consequences. 999 is more important than 101 thus resources are allocated to it.

Makes sense, but where will the money come from to take on the new extra call handlers?

Sorry to mention it old chap but that's just another personal attack. Any chance you could refrain as then we can continue on track and then hopefully you can contribute something useful?

Personal attack, how exactly? Maybe pointing out the obvious is now some kind of attack then. Its clear for all to see whats been posted. Plenty of useful posts, sadly ruined or ignored by the OP.

Please stop saying this, it's boring and childish.

Do you have anything constructive to add? A comment about new call handler funding perhaps? (Please see above)
