foxydebs   36 #25 Posted March 20, 2011 Sorry but this is implausible 1.Cuts means there has been a FREEZE ON RECRUITS 2.You must be at leasr 36 and ntherefore too,lold to be recruited 3.If you were in any doubt about the validity of the service you would have been outed by now  I think you are a plant to stir up comments.  You must be at least 36 means you wouldn't be able to join the police until you were 36 and therefore someone would not be too old to recruited. You don't have to be 36 as a friend of the family joined the police force after leaving college. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

You don't have to be 36 as a friend of the family joined the police force after leaving college.  If hes been working for 20 years he must be at least 36(16+20=36);and you can leave college at 65 if you join at 64!Come on Deborah Fox use your brush!

crookesey   636 #36 Posted March 21, 2011 A mate's son joined in his late twenties, the last time I spoke to him about his job, he said that he felt like a uniformed social worker. All my police officer mates are long retired, however none of them would have played nursemaid to a load of low lives.  All I ever see is Blunkett bobbies, dressed like real police officers, driving police cars, but without the power of arrest. Shoplifters can steal as much as they like as long as each theft does not exceed £80.00. Thirteen years of Labour stupidity has left us stitched up like kippers, without a police force that is fit for purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
