Artist's Comments

Here in the UK, I'm probably committing an offence posting a picture of the police in action. What they're doing hovering over this area, I've no idea. They've been here about half an hour so far. They're quite often here.

Whatever it is that they're up to, it's hard to imagine it's a proportionate response - disturbing everyone in the area, not just for a few minutes, and costing God knows how much in helicopter time.

And they're terrifying our chickens :(

I know at least one policeman who (privately) doubts whether the cost-benefit analysis supports the use of helicopters by the police at all. I can see that they may have some use in traffic control... but not out your way (or ours, where they are also quite often hovering about).

Oh, but they're such fun - almost as exciting as car chases, and a lot less dangerous for the police, the suspects, and the general public.
