To make matters clear for those asking about so called 'no go areas' for police in England.

There are NO 'no go areas' for police.

What we are talking about here are decisions that have to be made regardig the health and safety spects of entering potentially dangerous areas.

It has to be borne in mind that on a normal working day there are not enough police officers working to proivide sufficient backup should the excreta interface with the air circulatory device and also they would be entering an area where they would not only be outnumbered but where the other parties would have access to weapons etc.

It ain't The Bill.

Travellers sites are not no go areas but these things have to be properly planned in advance.
