At the 31st March 2016 the Constabulary employed
 1111 Officers
 85 PCSOs
 563 Police staff
During 2015/16 numbers of all employee groups were
maintained close to the budgeted establishment,
although PCSO recruitment was delayed in the latter
part of the year due to the financial uncertainty. It is
intended that Officer and PCSO numbers will be
maintained during 2016/17.

Oh, and by the way, my false information comes from what must be a false report competed by the Chief Constable of Cumbria police - Do you work for Diane abbot ?

So your using data a year out of date , maybe you should look at the official government figures from which were made available in January 2017 which records data from september., you idiot

www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-...es-30-september-2016

I always find it very difficult to take anyone seriously that has to resort to personal insults as they do have the acumen to get a point over without doing so.

However, let us see if you have the guts to apologise, please read the attached (the only up to date data from Cumbria) it is self explanatory, then apologise.

It's still means cuts in relative terms , due to inflation as inflation was at around 2% last year, if your going to share information at least take it into economic logic ., That's why we have less police officer in Cumbria FACT less police stations FACT.

Let's put into simple terms , a freddo cost 25p last year now they cost 30p , with £1 I used to be able to buy 4 , but now they have gone up to 30p , so therefore I take £1.10 I can still can't get 4 as although I have more money in practise due to increase prices my money is worth less.

As for talking about insults , aren't you a bit of a hypocrite.

If they cost 30p and you want 4 why would you take £1.10? surely youd either take £1.20 or just your original £1 and only get 3.

The same exact website tells us that there has been 17000 police officers cut, across the country "


Please, there is a saying 'if in a hole stop digging '

These figures calculate ' hours worked '.then divide by equivalent FTE.

In other words, stop all Police Officers doing overtime and replace this with FTE, which would have Zero effect on the budgets and allot of very unhappy Policemen !!!

Routine overtime should always come behind having enough workers to do a job in the first place in my opinion.
