So what does everyone think?
I think its a good idea as it will be an agency that can soley focus on the job at hand rather than be tied down by petty matters such as stolen cars, pub fights and football hooligans.

1. MI5 is our equivelent internal security agency
2. The FBI covers a slightly larger country than ikkle Blighty
I'm not sure if it's a good idea - I don't know what cases they're taking up and what powers they'd have. Although I can't really see the need. In America it's necessary because the country is so big, it must have something to hold all its various police forces together, wheras in the UK there's not a lot that standard police forces couldn't handle.
shut up.
was thinking something similar
I am aware it isn't like the FBI its just seeing as everyone using that analogy it seemed a good way of expressing it. Surely you can see benefits of a specialised unit? For example armed police are a specialised unit and are from what I gather very effective surely more so than giving every officer a handgun so why not have specialised units for organised crime?
did you quote that off the bbc web site?
Why??
A lot of crime is organised but don't forget than teenagers are turning to crime more and more as they get into gangs; this is becoming a rising problem and a specialist squad isn't going to combat this, I don't think
I didn't!
I haven't SEEN the BBC website on this issue!
what about http://www.nationalcrimesquad.police.uk/
If you look at some of the new asset taking laws for example we have de facto gotten rid of jury trials and being inocent till proven guilty.
Customs can take ALL my assets, stop all my money and then I have to prove that I got those through legal means, if I cant then the government gets them.
SO, I would have to defend myself, on legal aid, if I got it, NOT on my own assets.
This is a discrace, its a mockery of justice, it is an assuption of guilt.
Ha haa... I'm starting to like this sole liber fella/gal...
Not to go too off topic I posted another thread to do with this.
