I watched this yesterday as another PH'er I know lives in that estate.

How do people think they would act if the police were armed? I personally think this kind of stuff would be a lot less frequent.
Down here in sleepy old Devon the Traffic and Armed Response guys are pretty much merged now with ARV's outnumbering Traffic by 2-3 units to 1 usually on a shift. Any pursuit (if it's authorised) will almost certainly involve armed officers and they predominantly drive X5's down here and the guys I know aren't shy about using 'tactical contact' if it's needed. We have the advantage of less urbanised areas though and more tractors and quads being nicked than performance cars.
The request for the helicopter made me laugh in that video. With the damage the Police vehicles were sustaining the villains would be long gone before the NPAS guys had even put their flight suits on.

Need a bit more than whatever they were in to spin a 2 tonne, 4wd beast like that.

Prime retail stock being sourced for certain car dealers there.
Took me a second to get that one. hehe Reminds me, I'm passing through Keighley soon.
