"The firm has offices in London, Manchester, Essex and Mumbai in India" - Mumbai = unlimited source of cheap labour 'cops'? "Police are on their knees, sick to the teeth with what is going on in their job." "A police force is recruiting unpaid volunteers to drive officers around." - I thought the term 'force' was not used any more - and anyway, you would think 'farce' in this case more appropriate. "Volunteer drivers will not be paid but will have the chance to become a ‘valued member’ of the constabulary." - are we also to see unpaid volunteer Members of Parliament becoming 'valued members of society'? - - - "Very dangerous precedent of justice only for the wealthy. It's about time our government ended austerity and started to fund public services properly again." "Against a backdrop of Government police cut backs and under funding and a deliberate policy of running down every public service in order to privatise it?" "Just wait until a private force is got at by the underworld. It won't be long before the professional criminal gangs target vulnerable security individuals with bribes, threats and false accusations. You only have to look at what happens in the privatised prison service." "Looking forward to the first video of one of them casually standing by and doing nothing because THAT particular victim hasn't paid "Protection" money." www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5346699/First-private-police-force-caught-400-criminals.html  |

As to bfg's link: "Handcuffs would be used as a “restraining tool” during a citizen’s arrest until police arrived." - is this legal?
“I think it’s dangerous to be going around scaremongering people for financial gain. Many of the things that people will be scared of are mostly perceptions. It’s something I feel very uncomfortable about. Their tactics, by playing on people’s fears, are despicable.”
"This security firm will not have any more powers then ordinary people which means once the local scum realise they'll be seen as little more then a joke "
"How long until unscrupulous "Security" companies get in on the game, and we get loads of lovely protection rackets going on.
"you haven't paid your £3.50, it means we couldn't stop little tommy throwing that brick through your window, although you may notice that anybody who has paid hasn't got smashed windows" "

Well I suppose we have a 2 tier NHS...2 Tier schooling...now 2 tier police....
Those who can pay will get more protection than those who can't just as those who pay private health care don't have to wait etc etc....
The way of the world becomes ever more segregated...
I don't like it ....

we should have 2 tier posting rights here on TB.
anyone with less than 3,000 should not be allowed to argue, disagree or criticise the 'expert' posters.
................... oh, you've just made the grade, Patty. ......... feel free.

Are they connected To the police force at all?
If not they are no better than a civilian.
If they knocked on my door I would just ignore them.
