Britain's Downward Spiral

Its sad to see this, we just see horrible story after horrible story from Britain.  Anything from obnoxious and abusive Nanny State rules, regulations, and laws, to critical failures in their health care system, Brits leaving their homeland, ethnic tensions, a collapse of law and order.  I knew it was bad, but this is extraordinary.  The first lines alone will leave you dumbstruck,

Four out of ten crimes are written off as unsolvable just a few hours after they are reported.

The two million offences are simply "screened out" - and their victims have little or no chance of seeing the culprit brought to justice.

No officer visits the scene of the crime, and no attempt is made to find a suspect.

What do you even say to that? 

In some areas, up to two-thirds of burglaries aren't even investigated. 

Even violent crimes and robberies sometimes get ignored. 

Among the 12 English and Scottish forces which released figures under Freedom of Information laws, 788,000 crimes were screened out last year.

From a total of 2,029,000 recorded offences, this means 39 per cent are written off in this way.

The findings suggest that out of 6million offences reported to forces in the UK last year, around 2.3million were not investigated.

What the hell happened to the UK?
