    One of the drawbacks of the motorway arriving in oilgate, be gone back to the capital before the guards even know. Surely should be checkpoints Co-ordinated for exit ramps and the roundabout before oilgate from 4 to 8 pm ??

    @Gregson from the Block: Too many at desks, would love to know the number who actually go out on patrol, several living in my area apparently stationed locally and never seen them out and about

    @IronMan2020: Was this burglary carried out by Dubs? Do you know something we don’t?
