Home Secretary Can’t Give Away TASERs
The current edition of Private-Eye is reporting that despite the Home Secretary announcing £8m for 10,000 Tasers last November she’s only managed to get police forces to take 2,000.
It is excellent that forces are resisting the attempts to push enough TASERs for all response police onto them and are generally restricting what they take.
The Private-Eye and others have pointed to the recent deaths of teenagers in the USA following TASER use as showing the dangers of TASER.
