The UK government on Tuesday announced a new plan to tackle crimes, but the plan was met with the cold shoulder of a disgruntled police force, which said a few days ago that it has lost confidence in Home Secretary Priti Patel.
The home secretary last week announced that police officers whose salary is over £24,000 ($33,300) are subject to a pay freeze, sparking anger among the police. Senior police officers have said that the pay freeze is “insulting,” after the force was “hung out to dry during the pandemic.”
