Dixon would be pleased.

i agree, i did say during the interview this was far from ground breaking, but you would be surprised how it simply does not generally happen here. i tried to do this last year and it did not happen, not generally the thing to do here you see, hence the coverage. its not the idea, its the implementation.

its been shown to directly relate to public perception of a police presence, and the more visible deterrent factor. please don't ask for a link, i think it was Hull university about 6yrs ago.
