# i don't know if i could say categorically who has a better police force
but my own limited experience and what i've seen in the news hasn't exactly endeared me to the uk police.
i think the thing to remember is what the role of the police is and the reality of what the police are for.
i'll try and pick this up again later if you like, but my boy wants to play hide n' seek,
so i'm off to hide inthe shower and read my book for 10 minutes

# From what I recall...
The police made an unfortunate mistake. In theory they should have been better organised but it has to be remembered that the fences that the people were crushed against were a fairly new thing, brought in because of the rising problems with hooligans.

In short, it seems to have been one of those occasions where a little incompetence went a long way.
