    No, that is not what I am saying as well you know.

    The fact that this incident was resolved in 8 minutes points strongly to the fact that our front-line response capability has not been undermined.

    My point was that, the response time being so impressive suggested that the cuts in Police numbers had not really had any material impact on countering these major incidents.

    Following the plot is not really one of your strong suits is it?
    So... did the OP make the point that the cuts in police numbers had adversely affected security or that the reduction in the border security budget had adversely affected security? The clue is in the thread title.

    Following the plot is not really one of your strong suits is it?

      Well let's see what he wrote shall we?......

      What about this one:

      This is the reality of Theresa May's record on terror as Home Secretary | The Independent

      "According to latest Home Office figures, the number of police in England and Wales fell by 18,991, or 13 per cent, between September 2010 and September 2016, when it stood at 122,859.

      Within that, the number of authorised firearms officers dropped from 6,976 in March 2010 to 5,639 in March 2016"

      My point is that she's responsible for cuts in security

          Only because you chose to omit it though.

          Did the OP clearly state what I quoted or did he not?

          No point in you disingenuously cherrypicking subsets of the main thrust of his points now, is there?

          Makes you look even more silly than normal

            You are now ignoring the thread of our conversation and the topic of the thread. We will have to just agree that you are a stupid cock.

                Border Force resource budget will be £558.1m for 2016/17 – a cut of 0.4% on last year – but the agency gets a capital spending boost

                Passport check
                Day-to-day funding for the Border Force will be cut by 0.4% in the coming year, Theresa May has announced.

                The agency’s resource budget will be £558.1m for 2016/17, a reduction of 0.4% on last year.

                The home secretary said spending was protected “to all intents and purposes” because capital spending on Border Force projects is set to rise by more than 40% to £68m.
                So, as usual, the OP gets his facts wrong.

                Quelle surprise.

                    How about Odious Plank or Obfuscating Pillock?
