    Police Commissioner

    What a total and utter waste of resources and public tax payers money! We didn't need these new commisioners - what the Public need is reassurance and to feel safe in their homes and on the streets. The money wasted for this farce and the ridiculous 6 figure wages doled out would have helped...

    Supposing one was to start turning?
