Could be something to do with the fact that their Chief at the time was Bernard Hogan Howe, the sponsor of the report that led to NPAS.
Possibly it was him trying to show that "If he could do it!"
Whatever! They were a damned good unit. At least the major criminals in Liverpool thought so, they tried to destroy it more than once. I visited just after the death sentence was announced. The sense of betrayal was all invasive. They couldn't believe why they had been sacrificed in that way. It wasn't even as if they were one of the laid back units. No- they went for every criminal and car thief they could, and were bloody good at it too.
The criminals that tried to destroy them shouldn't have bothered, but I bet they didn't guess who was going to do the job for them!
