What on earth is going on in the Police force?        No Bobbies on the beat and now no cells in a Police Station!         Apart from not making any sense, it seems a waste of time and resources to have to take people to St Asaph.

They're too busy manning speed cameras - that makes easy money!

The puzzling thing DVT is where is all that money going? In a CCBC meeting recently 2 senior Police Officers stated the cost of policing in North Wales is rising & they have agreed a precept of £22.50 per household this year, which will be included in our Council Tax to balance their books.

Re: Police News & Announcements..............UK's gun licenses scandal

Inside UK's gun scandal as licenses handed to almost everyone with 'more deaths' warning issued
A Mirror investigation has found that police forces granted nearly 570,000 gun licences in the last five years - and only turned down less than 1% of applications

Campaigners have blasted the police for waving through gun licenses without proper checks, after our investigation found that 95.5% of people who apply for a firearms certificate get one.

On the plus side....“I’m pleased the government has increased the price of a licence application, however, there is still a lot of work to be done. If we don’t see some real changes soon we will be heading in the same direction as America.”

Ferrari driver ends up in back of police car after trip to North Wales from London
The motorist was spotted near Cerrigydrudion last weekend before being stopped by officers

That's good work by the Police so well done for stopping that disqualified driver but there was no mention of what happened with the car.
