Costs Claim After Police Alliance Ends

I don't blame Warwickshire's PCC: https://www.rugbyadvertiser.co.uk/ne...-end-1-9069866

Shame it's come to this. The only losers are going to be the public as money that should be spent on policing will be spent on legal teams.

Even the Police Inspectorate is criticising the move: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-49854818

Looks like the alliance is back on: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-49944504

I believe Warwickshire police asked the Home Secretary to intervene to keep the alliance going, at least for now.

Edit to add... That's what the link says!

Looks like both forces have settles on a partial alliance: https://www.leamingtoncourier.co.uk/...sition-2005971

I wonder at what cost?

A settlement has been reached: https://www.rugbyadvertiser.co.uk/ne...illion-2523139

The two forces are still working together on some back office stuff, plus Warwickshire are paying to use West Midlands' forensic services: https://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news...ervices-28627/
