Police Commissioner Elections
« on: 15 November 2012, 17:31:46 »

Don't forget to vote folks.

If you are a Eurosceptic like me, then now might be a good time to send a message to the main parties by voting tactically and putting your X on the UKIP candidate.

Well when I voted this morning there was no one else there, apart from very bored looking officials! ::) ::) ::)

I reckon the turnout will be the lowest ever know in an election. ;)

The candidate have hardly pushed their cause, there's been virtually no information in the media about who wants what. And what's their political persuasion got to do with it?  ???

Firstly the system has been rigged for the big parties with a 5000 deposit and no free delivery election address- unless you are on the internet
 
November elections are absurd as people will not open up in the evenings
 
The job role is a nonsense with MP's and Judges setting the law and the Chief Constable runs the police operations
 
How one person can represent the whole county of five boroughs is absurd
 
For the first time since I was able to vote I wrote on my postal ballot paper this is a disgraceful waste of 75 millions pounds electing a non-job which should have been spent of police officers
 
As for the candidates not one of them inspires confidence in my area
 
A waste of time and money when we are supposed to be saving costs, not one candidate can even make clear what they would do in this 80,000 to 100,000 pounds a year non-job

The only candidate that bothered here was a Mr Nick King. A very unfortunate name for someone running as a police commissioner, but true.

 :(
I really cannot see the point of voting because the probablity is that nothing will change and it will, in certain areas that are not the pet project of the elected one, the situation and crimes worsen drastically. It is simply yet another high position and someone will fill it, bag the perks (because it will be riddled with them) then become a 'god' that will do as he or she wants and sod the hopes and wishes of those who elected them.
Maybe another quango will be the correct term for it?
Perhaps if the punishments really did work with long mandatory prison  terms without parole or early release and prison was really prison without luxuries other than a library and not a hotel of learning with Sky tv and games consoles then it would not be a needed role because crime would be almost non-existent? How's about natural life for repeat offenders too?
Oh if only.........they would indeed be happy days for all who stick within the law ::)
