As predicted, Police all over the UK are now overwhelmed by the work involved in investigating child pornography. In this time of savage cuts to Police budgets, how will they cope with this hugely growing problem ? Children are at risk here, after all.

divebuddy - "A-H, I think you know perfectly well what I mean."

That's great - thinking is free - you should do more of it!

^Ahhh... never mind. ;o)

dive-buddy - "A-H, OK. Here's what I am thinking. That you make up most of what you say as you go along. That you present your ramblings as if they were facts. That anybody who sees things differently from you is some sort of an idiot. You constantly contradict yourself and usually fail to follow your own advice. You are particularly fond of telling people that they shouldn't assume things and then promptly doing so yourself. Naturally, when it is categorically shown that you are wrong (like here) you just ignore that fact."

Like i said - thinking is free - delighted to have taken my advice and done some more of it.

andy-hughes, less than a week ago you said //I do see it [discussions on AB] as a debate, and by definition, they are won or lost.//

Time to put your money where your mouth is, as 'they' say, and bite the bullet. You've been proven wrong.

[andy-hughes]

You are absolutely right Naomi.

I have been guilty of gently teasing divebuddy, and attempting to avcoid the inevitable.

But I am never too proud to admit that I have debated and lost my corner, and I am delighted to confirm that in my view, I have, on this occasion, been out-scored by your good self, and like-minded AB'ers who have posted on the thread.

On to the next one!

[andy-hughes]

divebuddy - not at all, and thank you for taking my gentle teasing in the spirit in which it was offered - I know people who would die rather than take a little gentle ribbing!

See you on the next one!

[naomi24]

andy-hughes, 'gentle teasing'. You're an unsuccessful trier - I'll give you that much.

[andy-hughes]

naomi - sorry you couldn't accept your win with good grace - never mind.

[naomi24]

Haha! Good grace? Coming from someone who has consistently refused to concede defeat until forced to, that’s a laugh!

To go back to the OP.....

I read that that pressures of studying the porn on the computers has caused huge distress to many of the officers, both in volume and content, so they too need counselling as well - which is therefore undoubtedly an additional cost pressure, which may not have been anticipated when all this started.

[andy-hughes]

naomi - this is just an exchange of views, no more, no less.

Lighten up!
