I WAS shocked and disgusted by the latest crime figures you posted in the paper – it is not good enough.
If GMP had been a private company with that much money invested in it, the shareholders would have gone mad at that type of return on their investment.
Enough is enough. We are paying for Rolls Royce service and getting a handcart. We all know that cuts have to be made, but even with the small increase made in police funding in our council tax, surely a better performance was expected.
Let's face it we are not safe, on the streets, in our homes or in our vehicles. The time has come for the voice of the people of Bolton to be heard.
Put the police back on the streets, let them do the job they are good at, demand and increase in manpower. Then maybe we can rest easier in our beds.Well done Bolton News for keeping the Bolton public informed – keep up the good work.
