I am not blaming Sussex Police for the spending of £1.4 million on external communications over the past three years - but I am blaming the Government for allowing it to happen in the first place and not putting more police recruits on the ground.
The Labour Government has been given notice by the Crewe and Nantwich by-election that the majority of voters have lost faith in the Government.
If you drive down the motorway you see the police everywhere.
Two road traffic cars plus two police motorcyclists plus an unmarked police vehicle all having a go at what I guess are Britain's biggest criminals - the poor motorist.
If we change Government they lose their jobs but we still retain the same civil servants and council staff. We might just as well not bother voting.
