'You're so wrong!' Should we prepare for potential food shortages and power cuts, or is it the Government’s job to protect us? @IainDale, @Martha_Gill and @CarolineFlint debate.

The appeal win rate for dismissed officers is 90% because these secretive PSD kangaroo courts are riddled with unlawful bias and procedural failings Subject officers are suicidal and riddled with PTSD from a corrupt, unduly long and guilt presumptious circus

Should we all be prepping? How likely is an emergency and how do individuals and communities prepare for them? Listen to Scotcast 🔊 bbc.in/4edfv3w

🇬🇧 Are Britons ready for the sacrifices needed to strengthen national security? Speaking to soldiers in Catterick Garrison the head of the British Army warns Britons must face a “frank conversation” about the sacrifices needed for defence and security🔗forcesnews.com/services/army…

Ah the personal attacks, if you can't debate the issue, then go be bored elsewhere, I don't need to prove my experience with you.

the scrutiny following a discharge, injury/death - why would they want to put themselves in that position. Furthermore, comparison with other countries is a red herring, we have much tighter gun laws here, there isn't the case to give every officer a weapon.

I'm not going to review hundreds of papers, studies and surveys with you on here. It's a bell-curve, those on the left would see our police with little, those on the right would see them armed, the majority of actual police sit in the middle. Given many officers and friends see

Police not actually wanting to be armed... but you know better...

I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.   The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.   But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.   That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.   It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.
