It's about time that someone spoke about what police priorities should be.

Any thoughts?
I saw that and I have to agree completely. The police are far too stretched as it is without this petty stuff. Everything is a ruddy hate crime these days, we'll be getting locked up for giving someone a dog look in the future!

The police need to concentrate much more on the 'real' crimes.

Just another example of this snowflake society. Offended? Get the hell over it and move on. Everyone is offended these days.

Re: A sign of common sense at last?

I'm not so sure they are recruiting the right people these days. There was a police woman (am I allowed to say that) on TV complaining that every day she faces the threat of violence. Really! I'm not condoning violence but surely that's why she is in the job, to stop and protect the public from violent types. Perhaps she just wants to attend the easy incidents such as wolf whistling and old ladies dropping dog ends.

From 2004 till 2011 the Police chief in Rotherham was more concerned about the speeding drivers on the road than 11 year old girls being raped by the Muslim flith
