Blandshire's New Year's Commitment
Back in October, Inspector Gadget revealed the straplines that make Ruralshire Constabulary the shining light among modern police forces.
I've been pondering whether Blandshire Constabulary should likewise have a motto, and after months of brainstorming, team-building exercises and picking things out of a hat, I have come up with:
Note: Due to the force-wide implementation of Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB), which means doing everything with a budget of zero, the Motto Development Department of my blog has saved money by borrowing a logo that is rarely used any more, in the hope that no one will notice. When someone does notice, I plan to vigorously defend the use of this logo until an Appeal Court rules against me, and then spend several million pounds developing a new one.

I liked the Northumbria Anti D&D Xmas campaign a couple of years ago. " get drunk. Get disorderly. Get locked up" especially when some card changed it with a marker pen in the city centre bus stops to " get drunk. Get disorderly. Get... A kebab".

Has Blandshire got a `logo and stickers` department like Cumbria, giving its finest the benefit of things such as `Drive to Arrive` labels stuck in all its vehicles, or wallet sized plastic cards bearing `The Pledge`? It just gets worse and worse (Hey, is that a slogan I've inadvertently coined?)

Hello.
I am enjoying this blog. I am an NHS staff nurse blogger and have many friends and family members who work with the police force.
Targets and paperwork are screwing things up for us as well.

I always thought we should have nicked the Toyota strapline,
'The car in front is getting away'
equally
'Crime - Together We'll Record It'
Be careful Bloggsy, if you choose a logo we can all use just think what other savings they could start making by taking a national approach...
I think we'll spend thousands adapting yours.
"Grow Up - In a safe community for all". Nice.

During another 5 minute refreshment break on typical weekend night shift caught a glimpse of a tv clip show, 1 of which involved a man walking around cities bearing the soon-to-be slogan of every UK force ---- "FREE HUGS". Now, would that not make the world a better place?? Marketing Dept here i come ;-)
