Took them long enough.

And then only releasing the description of the suspect after abuse from the tabloids...

Double Standards

Is it me or when a police officer gets shot it is front page news for at least a week. But when Joe Bloggs gets capped in the street he may hit page 6. This took place in Nottingham the gun crime capital of britain. Of course the police are at risk, that's why they give them body armour.

Over the last two years more people were killed in High Wycombe than Nottingham.

Thank you Bagpuss, mind you if there's an area in HW that's as rough as the Meadows, I'd probably live in Marlow....

Used to live in Marlow in 1993. Seemed like a nice place then - but I suppose everywhere's gone to bollux by now.
