‘Tasers for all front-line officers’ – Police Federation

‘All front-line police officers should be offered a Taser in light of the increased terrorism threat, the head of the Police Federation says.

Steve White said it would help protect against “dangerous people” who could be “preparing to attack police officers”.

He told The Guardian that every police officer was a potential target.

The federation is to vote on the proposal, that every uniformed frontline officer should be offered Taser training, next month.’
