Video with Sadiq Khan MP about community policing

[stevanroth]

The police are public servants, yet they hate the public from my experience. The police think they work for the government. Everyone with a computer knows a police state is around the corner.

I believe that penalties in britain are too soft. People are moe likely to commit a crime with the world like this. Letting prisoners out on early release for good behaviour. This is done because prisons are overcrowded. But if our penalties were far more harsh would so many people be commiting these crimes in the first place? So perhaps an making penalties more harsh would, in the long run reduce the overcrowding of prisons.

but if you think about america, where the penanlties are by far the harshest... that's where there is the most crime... so perhaps not...

[tyronix]

what is ashame is that once they catch criminals rather then sending them off out into space to defend for them selfs there put back to re-offend untill there caught again making the effort and expense of catching them pointless

Lets have REAL police,not boy scouts

[Hertfordshire247]

Can you define please what you mean boy scouts? I happen to know that PCSO'S have turned my area around. Rather than hating all the bloody time give some support, i bet you've done f'all for your community.

Sad sad comment above

Knowing the name and face of my police makes me sleep better than any weapon could. especially as statistically id be more likely to hurt a loved one.

[TheReichofNess]

What a waste of bloody time and money. Here's an idea give these idiots a gun, and have them deal with the hip hop worshipping youth by good, old fashioned, British pistol whipping. If you can't do that, lest the Guardian reading hippies get upset, let me defend myself with an extendable baton. I trust myself to defend me than some blubbering policeman employed by fat Scottish socialists.
