I am sure the Mayor will join me in congratulating the Durham Police Force on becoming the best police force in the country, when it comes to solving crime. They solve 18% of all crimes in the university city, while similar-sized police forces manage a score of just 5%. Mike Barton, Durham's chief constable attributed the force's success to good old-fashioned policing. 1 What lessons do you think might the Metropolitan Police learn from the policing model operated by the Durham Force? 1 https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/sunday-times-crime-map-beat-bobbies-…
