DOUGLAS Ross has been accused of sowing panic and pitting communities against each other through the “sensationalism” of a policing pilot scheme…

He said: “SNP funding cuts are forcing dedicated officers to ignore criminal acts. Victims of crime will report it to the police, only to be told it’s not important enough to investigate.In response, Yousaf said the scheme seemed to him like a “proportionate approach to tackling crime”.

He then quoted from the press release about the pilot which Ross had focused on, saying that investigations would not be launched “on some occasions crimes are reported where there is no associated threat, no risk, no harm, no vulnerability – and this is the important bit – also no proportionate lines of enquiry for police officers to investigate”.“They’ll receive a poorer service despite paying their taxes like everyone else,” he went on.

As the chamber grew more animated, Yousaf hit back: “That is complete and utter nonsense, turning one community in Scotland against another.Yousaf said the issue was “of course a policing operational matter”, adding that Scotland has more police per head than England or Wales, “and of course, on significantly higher pay”.
