The more I think about it, the more bizarre the concept becomes. Think of the proportion of homes that are apartments, or that have their own driveways with gates etc. Are the police seriously suggesting its part of their remit to go round checking every door and window of every residence in a district?

I know several people that have actually been burgled, and when they call the police, they don't give a damn, they are considered very low priority.

I can't help but feel their motives are not entirely honest in this.

More reasons for sticking to the rules.

You are spot on, this would be a defence lawyers dream scenario.

Finding an intruder in my house would likely end up with them getting a cricket bat to the head dressed as a copper or not they would be rapidly removed from the premises using the necessary amount of force to do so.
