Is this going to be a balmy(barmy) summer?Apparently, we are on course for a balmy summer, but this may not just be restricted to the weather forecast.Is it me, or is someone seriously barmy when it comes to Surrey police funding? Let'sput aside the apparent unfair formula and grant allocation, and the fact that Surrey Police rely on almost 50% of their funding from precepts, compared with 25% of other police authorities.I am referring to the capping process, which is being challenged in a judicial review bySurrey Police. It seems to me everyone stands to lose.I thought ministers had a responsibility to do their best for the electorate and other public sector organisations?
