>>The liberal left.....
I think the significant budget cuts from 2010 on have left the police short of 20,000 officers and poor vetting, training and targets over the last 12 years have contributed to a general decline.
From my experience, individual officers are great. It's the police "corporation" that has some strange priorities that don't square with what the public expects.
The judicial system is controlled by the Govt. The country has kept the Tories in for the last 12 years. The underfunded, under-resourced criminal justice system is what they want.
And of course there are the arrest for strange things like a bloke arrested for posting a meme mocking a protest group's logo or more importantly the Harry Miller case. How many millions did that cost?
