Surely the lack of police officers on the beat cannot be tolerated.

The influx of PCSOs may help a little as a visible presence but with their lack of powers which the idiots clearly pick up on, is the police authority being fair by making them sitting ducks for abuse?

"This sceptered isle" is rapidly becoming this knackered isle.

School discipline is out of the window, taxpayers' cash is going to layabouts and scroungers, there is graffiti everywhere with no visible penalties - can't give their names out, it wouldn't be fair would it?

Likewise ASBOs. Is it not time for all of us to put the fingers up to the PC ones and do-gooders who are rapidly turning this country into a Third World state?

My old pop and thousands of others fought 60-odd years ago for the betterment of things. Don't make me laugh.
