ADMITTED at last - the police are scared of the criminals.

For a policeman to say, and a chief constable at that, that beat bobbies are ineffectual is totally disgusting.

It proves a point that the police are not what they used to be.

Are they only effectual in cars, do they intend not to get out of their car to become ineffectual?

If this real, so called police force is ineffectual, why bother with the community warden and special constabulary, they will automatically be ineffectual won't they Mr Burgess?

Let's all write to Jack Straw, we need new blood in our police force because quite frankly we have a police force without a backbone here in Cheshire.

Boneless beef, boneless police more like.
