Quite agree that they shouldn't be spending on unnecessary firinge activities, but I can't see what's wrong with what they are doing with the dogs. In simple terms it seems that Police management have worked out that doing this will save a substantial sum without reducing operational effectiveness. So, from my perspective, well.done for that. The article says they'll talk to the Police Trades Union, the Federation in due course. The Federations response so far isn't grounded and doesn't seem of any great moment.
