The Police Federation of England and Wales is demanding a minimum 17% pay increase for officers - and suggest their salaries are negatively affected by restrictions on their right to strike.
Police officers have been prohibited from striking by law for over a century, with the most recent legislation being the Police Act 1996.
Steve Hartshorn, National Chair of the PFEW, discusses the difficulties involved with policing right now amid a lack of public trust and explains what could happen next if their demands aren’t met.
