Police chief says county-based police forces may be obsolete

President of ACPO beginning to worry your blogger! If he's calling for a proper review with independent members of an authoritative body, great. Its true weve needed one for a few years now. But he then goes on to oppose the Tories as well as the status quo and the Telegraph Report presents him as driven by terrorism as a priority police interest. He has been quoted before, possibly unfairly, as nor being someone who favours local demand above national obsessions. Reading too many redtops, Sir Hugh? "A service nationally organised but delivered locally"- that is he essence of policing.
