Wasting Police Time: The Crazy World of the War on Crime

Ever wondered why you can't find a policeman when you need one? PC David Copperfield has the answer...they're all inside the station, writing reports, photocopying, stapling and filing - when they're not getting caught up in the petty squabbles of the underclass. Wasting Police Time is his hilarious and shocking diary of life as a modern British bobby. It's the first book to spill the beans about the way senior police officers waste our money while fiddling the crime figures and scrambling to meet bogus Home Office targets. Copperfield's Chief Constable won't like it and neither will the government. But honest taxpayers - sick of being fleeced while criminals rule our streets - will relish every word.
