    Goodbye to local policing?

    Shabana Mahmood announced her police reform programme last week with plans for a “British FBI” and mergers to create mega forces. But the Home Secretary’s reform programme lacks key evidence - there is no proof bigger is better. Three PCCs discuss Home Secretary’s reform programme and what sits behind it. We also discuss the latest from Westminster with Sir Keir Starmer’s future in the balance and Kemi Badenoch’s performances improving. This is a public episode.
