My lad's bike was stolen from a train station a few months back. He'd left it there while he was at work. He works for longer than an hour a day, like many others.

This was the BTP's response, so it's kind of mad to see that it's actual policy now.

Really makes you glad to pay the old national insurance and council tax, y'know?

The more time our officers spend reviewing CCTV footage for these offences, the less time they have available for patrolling railway stations and trains...

Funny they say this, implying they'll be putting a BTP officer or two at every station to keep a lookout. Obviously that's not going to happen.

I'm not sure of the politics around the BTP's funding, but this pullback on responsibilities smells like they are short on officers or money or both.
