Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner, Matthew Barber, has called on the Government to provide full funding for the increased policing costs associated with the proposed asylum camp at MOD Bicester. 

The results of this survey send a very clear message. The vast majority of those who took part do not want to see local police forces abolished and merged into larger regional organisations.

We have a total of £200,000 of grant funding available to community and voluntary groups, and I would urge groups who are supporting my Police and Crime Plan in reducing crime across our communities to apply.
