I very much doubt this is fact. My understanding of the issue is that MOD Plod are to get emergency powers of a Constable, whereas at present they only have authority over MOD employee's or matters connected with MOD land.
As far as the RAF Police go I doubt whether the Staish would be too impressed to find that the Corporal on the gate or the young Fg Off. has the power to tell heim/her to swivel as no person shall interfere with the autonomy of the Police and all that (Quote by Lord Denning when the Government tried to tell the Police how to run the show)......so in answer to the question how this would affect the rest of us, well there's your answer, greatly.
As far as the effects on the general bods such ourselves. no difference really as ultimately we are all subject to Air Force Law and therefore are Policed by the RAF Police, like it or not.
