British Police Force

The police in Great Britain are organized differently from many other countries. There is no national police force in Great Britain. Instead there are 52 separate police forces. Among them there is the Metropolitan Police, the City of London police, county police, county borough police and combined police.

The forces cooperate with each other and are controlled by Home Office with Home Secretary at the head. The head of county, county borough and combined police is Chief Constable. Chief Constable is the most senior police officer of a force. The head of Metropolitan Police is the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis.

The British police officer is often called “the bobby” after Sir Robert Peel – the founder of the police force.

The tasks of British police are varied. They maintain public order, deal with road accidents, give first-aid and information to anybody who asks for help.
