Funny how only London and its extended Boroughs have a different name for their Police force...for example;
http://cms.met.police...ng_and_dagenham/index
My Mums cousin was in over all charge of the Drug Squad there and even appeared on Crimewatch on several occasions...Derek Todd if anyone wants to check it out.
I also had a mate who transferred from the met to Tayside and have another mate who is a Sergeant with Tayside Police who is currently seconded to the Met.
So why does the Met seem to be a seperate 'branch' of the Police force?
