Other night mum rang the police as someone was trying to get in our garage but was scared off...
rang from the land line, so you'd expect to get put through to the local branch? (Winsford/Chestre)
Newport in fcukin Wales we got through to (just over 200 miles away) and they said to ring back at 8am to get through to the local one as theres nothing they could really do...
Bit like that murder case where they rang the police & got put through to a force the other side of the country & it took them 6 HOURS to respond & by time they did the people who rang the police were dead 
It's getting beyond a joke now...

Yeah the police are shocking - they target decent ordinary people with blacked out windows or someone with a light out, and let all the murderers, rapist's and smackheads get on with it.
Where's the justice in that? Where.Is.The.Justice?
Where? show me officer!

why would you want traffic branch on the case of murderers??? 
some people just cant accept that police have a hard enough job as it is without getting plagued by people moaning about ILLEGAL mods/activities etc
