WITH regard to your letter 'How long before police action?' I would not hold your breath, you're just one of many who have had problems when trying to contact the police for action to be taken.

What you should have done to see a police officer straightaway was to drive home without your seat belt on.

Let's face it, 2005/06 police budget agreed February 15, householders in Cheshire are still getting value for money policing, despite a rise in this year's council tax bill.

Cheshire Police Authority has set this year's council tax rise at five per cent, which will mean that most residents in Cheshire will pay between six pence and nine pence more a week, depending on the size of their house.

So you pay more for less, makes you happy doesn't it?
