Mattie McGrath: We Need More Gardein on the Streets
Mattie McGrath urged more Gardein on the streets, arguing current staffing figures are insufficient. He said the numbers have been "manicured", cited shortfalls in Temple more, Tarek and Shure, and warned the situation is "shocking" and likely to deteriorate as officers leave.
Policing numbers and local stations
He welcomed Temple more as a "wonderful center" but said staffing has fallen. He said Tarek and Shure have three Gardein now and two souths where they used to have 14 Gardein.
Conmel district and superintendent's report
He referenced Conmel district, which covers Tarek and Shure and all the villages, and said a superintendent told him that on a good day he will have eight Gardein.
Retirements and planning concerns
He warned the situation will worsen with the number of people due to leave the Gardein, saying those figures were known when officers came in 30 years ago and that planning has not kept pace.
Immediate policing need and public closing
He said Gardein are doing their best but current measures will not help in the immediate term and repeated the call that more Gardein must be put on the streets. The video ends with an appeal to share, subscribe and invite viewers to leave comments.
