A 18.8% turn out in Bristol to vote.
Well done to Sue Mountstevens she is a Bristol-born businesswoman who ran her own chain of bakeries in Bristol, Bath and Somerset area.
IMHO who ever makes good cakes cant be bad. :lol
this is my whole point tho ,-what does a buissness person who has run a chain of shops know better how to run the police force rather than the police chief who has spent 30 years getting to the top in his proffesion ?
its like having gerald ratner (remember him ? !!) in charge of running the hospitals in the country, totally different causes,they shouldnt have bothered letting us vote and just put accountants in charge of the police (as long as they represent a political party )
and why was it that there was no flyers ,door step introductions ,and the voting was done in the mid winter ,when all other voting occurs mainly in spring,summer as its well known thats best way of getting voters out to polling stations
put gene hunt in charge of the coppers

As Simon Hayes is Chairman of Crimestoppers Hampshire & the Isle of Wight, and past Chairman of Hampshire Police Authority, I'm glad he has been elected in Hampshire. He is independent and has had good experience for the job. Unlike some mentioned.

Usually "Zero Common Sense"!
It makes for great "We're getting tough" headlines, but ends up with time and money being wasted because lots of people get done for petty things meaning the Police and Courts end up too busy to deal with the real criminals out there.
