I'm not sure dicking everyone who returns from a det with a parade is anything other than yet another zero-cost, lip service-paying reaction to a more fundamental issue. As usual it'll be the blokes paying the bill when they're told to re-assemble at HQ 48hrs after getting back from a 6-monther, so the local mayor and Lord Lt can patronise them.
TV like the Ross Kemp show is much more what people want and relate to.
