Wanted by North Wales Police

for telling the truth about traffic policing in North Wales. The letter below appeared in last Wednesday's Leader.

Top Cop Needs To Get Out More

Chief Constable Mark Polin has announced he is removing resources from traffic policing.
In his statement he repeated the oft used canard* that North Wales Police were renowned for their hard line on traffic enforcement
The Chief Constable surely lives in cloud cuckoo land.  He needs to forget what former Chief Constable Richard Brumstrom spouted and get out more.
From now on until Winter North Wales will sound like a noisy race track each weekend, with bikers and tourists racing down to their caravans.  Traffic policing has also been quietly removed from North Wales communities via the back door.
The police authority has recently announced that anti-social behaviour is high on the concern list of North Walians.
Being a friend to noisy racing bikers with illegal exhausts and speeding motorists who pose a constant threat to the life of law-abiding citizens is surely not the way to go.

* An unfounded or false, deliberately misleading story.
