So. The Cuntservatives are contemplating replacing cops on the beat with PCSO's.
Y'know. The thing that "they" said would never happen - replacement of police.
What I want to know is why, ever, do people believe what comes out of government mouthpieces?
Also, to pre-empt anyone saying "labour" said that - why do you think there's a significant difference?
Don't get me wrong. Anything that hurts the police gives me mild cause for amusement. However, it's going to hurt us too - because the police are going to be turned into the jackbooted bovver boys that are called up when arrests need to be made and they're going to have no incentive to keep "community relations" in good nick - because they will no longer have to deal with us - that'll be down to the even more poorly trained idiots.
Anyway, just thought I'd wang that in, considering some people (like me) complained when they brought in PCSO's that they'd eventually be used to replace proper police, only for retards to say "tinfoil hat" or "conspiracy" or even a simple "no they wont - the goverment said so"...
