Setanta your mate must be in one of the posh areas. Neasr me recently we've had three murders, countless burglaries and the lovely story of the martial arts nut who killed his wife, hid her in the boot of his car, took off to Melbourne with his 3-year-old daughter, dumped the daughter at a melbourne train station and legged it to meet up with a former girlfriend in LA. For six days the cops looked for the dead wife (who at this stage was still classed as merely missing) who turned out to be in...you guessed it...the car which police had impounded. They didn't find her for six days. They're not bored over here, they're fucking incompetent. Rather be out revenue gathering via parking tickets, the pricks.

Good work if you can get it. NZ$60,000 or thereabouts per annum on completion of training, tons of leave (due to no overtime) and after 10 years you get a friendly doctor to stress-leave you out for a whopping payout of upwards of $250,000. They're laughing all the way to the bank, the robbing bastards....

They won't accept anyone with a criminal record. And I earn WAAAY more than that without the need to get involved in domestic disputes and gang warfare.

CCTV is the easy option. It is not going to catch anyone, it is not admissible in court as evidence unless corroborated by a witness at the scene. Mostly they are not switched on, they are rarely monitored. They are a hoped deterrent, but will only deter minor offenders. They are good PR for police and crime related officials so they can be 'seen' as doing something against the rising crime figures. But the facts and reality is they only appease those who do not fully understand. Which means they are a waste of money, and we should do something that is effective against those crime figures. Rather than create smoke and reflecting mirrors.

I never doubted the validity of what I said!
But those that believe in the current system of how we use and how the courts rule on the evidence of CCTV, still believe that CCTV is worth wasting more money on creating a non-effective CCTV system. Because they are only interested in looking at issues superficially.

The new licensing laws that will be brought into effect down here require drinking establishments to have CCTV's installed outside their premises now.

Ah you see this is what they really want to use them for, a few drunken yobos is good, show them a real crime on it and the nearest cop will quickly be heading in the opposite direction.
