This week: What is a Police Force?
In many countries today the police are armed and ready to face the long hot summer the way they believe best. Could these methods be adopted here soon? How would they affect the role of the British bobby? Is he to remain the crime fighter, servant of the public and friend of children? Or is he to become the tool of local or national government and, perhaps, a public enemy?
