Who can police stop and search?

The Torygraph asks ‘Who can police stop and search?’.

Gun crime

The telewag reports that ‘28 gun crimes committed in UK every day’, and has Fibber Chris Huhne quoted as saying ‘”Violent crime - including, most alarmingly, gun crime - is still far higher than 10 years ago and has to be tackled much more vigorously.”
Gosh, that’s not very good, is it? Perhaps we should think [...]
