Default Police to march against cuts.
20,000 police officers from England and Wales are to march as they are restricted from striking to protest against cuts and privatisation.

I will be fully supporting the officers on the 10th May 2012

He highlighted the "privatisation" in forces such as Surrey and the West Midlands – where private contractors are bidding for roles to investigate crime, detain suspects, disrupt criminal networks and respond to incidents – as the real aim of the government.

Can we please get rid of this government before they ruin country?

I think the coalition Govt should really listen to the police and deal with their concerns, this is not a good thing to be seen happening in the UK at all.

The Police cannot do their jobs undermined and possibly with a hand tied behind their back, this is one of the issues many backbench Conservatives are angry at David Cameron for and he would do well to start a listening exercise,yes yet again,now towards the concerns of the Police.

Who said anything about striking?...I said they are marching as they are restricted from striking. Do you have a view on this, or is that it?...

'Among the thousands of police – all of whom have to take a day off to take part –will be Tony Melville, chief constable of the Gloucestershire force, who last month announced he was quitting over the changes to policing.'

No, you don't take a day off your annual leave to strike.

The shift towards privatisation is a bit of a worry, not sure how we can trust a police organisation solely concerned with profit

Yeah, but I mean...generally

So many police taking a day off at the same time to 'march' seems pretty much the same as a strike to me.

Either way, someone has to do something about all this. I'm glad the police are standing up for themselves (and us...really)

If private security firms bring in a cheaper workforce?
will go the way of the care homes and hospitals, in it purely for the money with no thought for public safety.

Yeah, the Tory government is maintaining the transformation of "not-for-profit" services to "just-for-profit" .....
