Spotted on doxey road between mill and castle tavern direction doxey at 0945 this morning. A blue bmw sanwched between 5 marked police cars 3 at the rear and 2 in front. Some of the officers were equiped with sub-machine guns. They were in conversation with 2 men who one presumes were from the bmw. .........

The response suggets that they had been tracked for some time and deemed doxey road a suitable place to pull them over. From their stance i doubt that dealing with questions were not likely to gild a useful response. I left..........

Whilst I am not happy to see armed Police on the streets I cannot agree we should be hanging and flogging them

Saw 5 police cars in a row in town this afternoon, all full of police wearing helmets etc. During the recent riots I started following Staffs Police on facebook, as did thousands, and it's good to see/read about how proactive they are being.

If their facebook feed is the same as the Twitter one, I hope their ability to catch criminals is bettter than their ability at spelling and grammar.....
