Jan Berry, chairman of the Police Federation in England and Wales, said each police officer would lose about £200 as a result of the failure to backdate the rise to September, but there was a greater principle involved.

I watch spokespeople for the Police go on about service, danger, and their poor renumeration. yet they can, unlike members of HM Armed Forces, refuse to do tasks because they are dangerous, i.e. there is nothing in law that says a policeperson has to put their neck on the line. In fact, if they think it is dangerous for them, they can sit and watch. The fact that the mass majority of police persons would not and do risk their lives is incidental. Compare that with a troopie crawling towards a Taliban stronghold - the order goes out "fix bayonets". The soldier has no option, he does exactly as ordered.
He - the soldier - has monies promised but not paid and the world is silent. Fact.
The constable from day one is on a better salary than the soldier.
Their families are treated like third class citizens. Illegal immigrants appear to have more rights than squaddies. MP's are ambivalent as far as families are concerned, and Charities claim benefits for which they did not earn. RBL does not give random monies to soldiers and their families - they first approach the Service Funds and most other avenues before dipping into the coffers donated by the public.Shame!
So go on strike. I haven't seen the fuzz protecting my district for almost a generation. ROB ON SCALLY!!!
