BRIGG BLOG PONDERS POLICE WEB PRIORITIES
In the run up to the election of Humberside's very first Police and Crime Commissioner could Brigg Blog be permitted to ask a question:
How come the powers-that-be can find the resources to set up an impressive, fully searchable website, giving details about the very recently declared candidates for the November 15 election while the much-vaunted crime maps - showing the public offences committed on our streets -continues to display statistics for August when it is now almost November?
View the candidates' details through this link
View the August crime stats (on October 28) through this link
You will note on the crime figures page that a special piece has been added giving details about the Police and Crime Commissioner election, with attached countdown graphic "18 days until PCC elections begin."
Brigg Blog has posted a message to those overseeing this site, requesting to know why the figures are so out of date. If we get a reply, we'll share it with you.
It would appear there's a deal of Home Office involvement with such websites. Make of that what you will.

I don't think I'm any different to anyone else, but I'm unable to grasp the advanatages of having a Police Commissioner over the existing Police Authority.
Do we reeally need a highly paid big cheese to tell us what the police priorities should be?
