WARWICKSHIRE police officers joined a Midlands-wide protest against Government plans for 20 per cent cuts to policing by staging a day of action around the county this week.

Members of the county’s Police Federation - the union that represents officers - travelled to towns around Warwickshire on Wednesday with their advertising campaign during the run-up to the Conservative Party Conference, which takes place in Birmingham from next weekend (October 7).

Representatives took their advertising bus - or ‘advan’ - to the former police station in Warwick to invite members of the public to support their protest.
