        this would be a bad idea. the british public have a very good, relaxed relationship with the police, unlike the USA!

        I still don't see any reason to change the 188-year policy. Not all attacks are carried out with gun!

        Funny all the comments from people who didn't read the article or probably have never been to the UK or know anyone from there.

        policing by consent will have lost something important if many uk police are routinely armed, but police do need effective public support.
