Shropshire MPs oppose mergers

From The Shropshire Star
Shropshire MPs today told the Government’s police minister that the controversial plan to merge West Mercia Police with three other forces should be scrapped and not just delayed.

Three of the county’s four Tory MPs were due to see Home Office minister Tony McNulty after the announcement that the merger with the West Midlands, Staffordshire and Warwickshire forces is to be postponed.
