IT would be interesting to know how many people would favour PCSOs having the power of arrest.

Giving them more power than just glorified traffic wardens, as I’ve heard them being called. If there is such a high number wanting their change of powers, maybe the government might make this a possibility. Would it make people feel safer?

Personally I can’t see why they have held back on their powers.
