It will have no effect on how police be run. The police have a multitide of objectives and Friday and Saturday night are already a priority. the issue is that these cost a lot of money in terms of overtime already.

It's estimated that the slowing economy means the Chancellor will have to borrow £45bn more than he anticipated, and as such will miss his borrowing targets. In effect, the government risk making the borrowing situation worse in the short to medium term by slashing too quickly. | |

I knew that a slowdown was likely the moment they passed their first budget. It was only a matter of time before the economy started to slow down. So will Osbourne blame Labour for the £45 billion more that they have to borrow. Oh and add in £7 billion that they will lose when they drive Ireland to default. I am not counting the £46 billion that state owned RBS is on the hook for, that is another Osbourne bonus. It is only a matter of time before the ratings agencies downgrade UK debt.
