I remember when I was living up north, they brought in a new police unit, named it the Fast Action Response Team, then realised their mistake when they came to put the livery on the car FART Car

We dont have SWAT, well not that i know of, i worked for the police, and apart from SAS etc that wouldnt drive round in a van anyway, we have a group called Armed Response, i think they would be the only people that would drive around in a van. You sure it didnt say T.W.A.T
