It can't have escaped anyones notice that after five 999 calls from St Stephen's Junior School (Canterbury) where staff requested help because an armed man was in the building they still put in a big fat no-show.

With word on the street that Kent Cops favour the cold hard cash of drug dealers, the stories of victims being arrested, the increase in local crime (no doubt as a diect result) and the general perversity of police action - I wonder if we'd be safer without a police force.
