Greater Anglia has announced that it will provide free rail travel to any police officers wishing to attend the funeral of PC Keith Palmer on Monday 10 April.
Officers just need to present a valid warrant/ID card for return travel to London from any station on the Greater Anglia network.

Nonsense our Tory and Labour parties have done this country proud for generations its thriving with no poverty or inequality and public services are SO supportive and professional, its the leaves, snow and rain, ie..UK climate that are to blame for Network Rail delays, they like the rest of the UK public servants are so underpaid with horrendously poor pensions they cant bigger & better cars, holidays and houses.

Not always. It depends on which force allows their officers to take advantage of free travel. Some allow it, some don't as they consider it an unfair reward.

I pay greater anglia £4000 per annum for my ticket on trains which are dirty, have no air conditioning and are well beyond their sell by date. Every morning the train pulls in late, whether that be 2/3 minutes or even later.
As far as I'm concerned, my anger is directed to greater anglia as that's who I pay for the service.
