I see today news is Coward unelected Theresea lying fuk May and Labour battle it out over
General election: Tories and Labour in police funding battle
Labour has warned that cuts to police numbers are a danger to the public as security dominated the penultimate day of the general election campaign.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan said the Met Police faced an "unsustainable" £400m budget squeeze, risking 12,800 officers and making it harder to foil attacks.
Theresa May insisted the UK's largest police force was "well-resourced".
But the prime minister said she would consider new powers in response to the "increased tempo" of terror incidents.
And Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson told Sky News that the police and security services would have "questions to answer" about whether more could have been done to track and detain the three men behind the London Bridge attacks, one of whom was the subject of a 2015 police investigation.
Met Commissioner Cressida Dick has said a debate is needed on future resources in the wake of the London Bridge and Westminster attacks although the prime minister said the UK's most senior police officer had made it clear her force had "very powerful" counter-terrorism capabilities.
The BBC's assistant political editor Norman Smith said that while the prime minister was keen to talk about other issues, such who was best-equipped to lead the imminent Brexit negotiations, the issue of police numbers continued to "dog" her.
Labour has accused her of "letting austerity damage" security by allowing total police officer numbers to fall by nearly 19,000 while she was home secretary. 100% true no need to fact check
Mr Khan said the Met, for which he has direct responsibility, was a "brilliant force" but had already had to swallow "big" budget cuts since 2010 and he was now "deeply concerned" about the effect that a further spending squeeze could have on policing in the capital.
The Labour politician said, under current Conservative plans, the Met faced having to make savings of £400m in the next few years.
Where did you Englanders find May anyway she is fuking hopeless, not unlike the Tory scumbag party
