Police waste money at time of austerity
September 8, 2010 3:24 PM
Today saw the launch of a news glossy magazine by Hertfordshire Police. It will be available in gyms, doctors' surgeries and other places across the county. Liberal Democrats have reacted with astonishment at this costly new publication.
Chris White, Liberal Democrat Leader and former member of the police authority, said: 'These are times of austerity and we all have to count every penny. Why the police feel it is suitable to launch a glossy magazine that gives fashion advice is beyond me. If people want fashion advice they should buy a real magazine and I suggest that the police get back to doing their real jobs - policing our streets.'
