Notts Police translators cost nearly half a million pounds

Nottinghamshire police spent almost half a million pounds on interpreters last year, a rise of £46,000 since 2014.

Figures show that in June 2014 to May 2015 Nottinghamshire Police spent £466,701 on translations, compared to £420,895 in 2013-2014 and £384,936 in 2012-2013.

The biggest cost was for Polish interpretation at £226,911.48, Romanian at £53,865.38 and Urdu at £24,024.87.

Police and Crime Commissioner Paddy Tipping (dithering jellyfish) claimed the cost of Polish translators this year had increased because of the investigation into the murder of Polish national Bogdan Nawrocki.

This is a joke say Nottingham BNP and we must lower the costs - we need more bobbies on the beat.

Apparently the Human Rights Act and European Convention of Human Rights requires the force to use competent translators so let's solve that problem immediately by leaving the EU.

The police do not have a responsibility to provide translation services - the immigrants and foreign nationals should be forced to learn english or f**k off home. All council forms should be in english/welsh or gaelic only and guess what, suddenly there would be a very different attitude from our visitors.

This is our country and you speak english or suffer the consequences.
