What the petition asks
It is not right and certainly not safe to send out officers single crewed night or day; the violence & disrespect towards the rank & file is outrageous. They do not give a second thought to harming officers; It is not good enough.
We want the Government and Parliament to make a push to recruit more Police officers, raise wages, and give them better protection & incentives; the government have eroded the pay & conditions over the years, and most police officers feel they are out on their own, facing overwhelming odds.
