I saw the tweet, I thought the topic would interest others. I quoted the tweet for context. I've no idea why anyone should infer that they should respond through me. Read the tweet, read the thread. Respond to either, neither or both. That's how these things work isn't it?

I am with you Steve. Stamp out the illegal drinkers, at times they are quite intimidating!

Maybe some quotation marks would have made it clearer - that's how these things work isn't it? Apologies for not reading it that thoroughly and making the connection.

@hertsPCC has sent an open letter to the people of Hertfordshire http://www.hertscommissioner.org/news/latest_news/open_letter_to_hertfordshire.aspx He makes a lot of sense for those who long for the good old days of the Dickensian prison. Look out for the return of stocks and ducking stools.

The new PCC has suggested that people arrested and held in cells should pay for their accommodation and meals. What a great idea. Just go out and arrest anyone on any pretence and then charge them for their stay. Don't even have to take them to Court. A hugely impressive idea to reduce the costs of policing! Ooops! I stepped on the crack in the pavement, that will be £400 please.

Andy Bliss, Hertfordshire Chief Constable, said: "We are working in close support to provide operational input as [Mr Lloyd] consults with the public about his ideas for further enhancing the policing effort locally." In other words; "We'll give this idiot some rope and see if he hangs himself."

Whatever next? Maybe the resurrection of the stocks on Millbridge for those visiting Hertford's farmers markets!!???? [:D]

Remember when parking tickets were issued only to control inconsiderate parking and then became a revenue raising tool? I don't know if that is factually correct but it is a commonly held belief that colours some people's view of parking enforcement officers. What would be the consequences for public confidence and policing by consent if it became a common belief that arrests were being made to raise revenue?
