Sadly, and mainly due to personal experience but not helped by recent high profile cases, my regard and respect for our constabulary has fallen to a lifetime low.
The thought of the likes of G4S entering the arena does little to improve my attitude towards modern day policemen and policing – in fact it has a negative effect.
If a grey haired old curmudgeon like me can feel such dissociation from our police force, how must some inner city youth especially if they are from a different ethnic and racial background feel?

This does not bode well for society.
Exactly JRB. Politicians, in cohorts with the police, have changed our society beyond recognition.
I trust G4S will be well insured.
What next - will we be voting for our parliamentary representatives on CV's presented by the same or similar providers?
It’s a probability Crinkly.
