basildon crime figures

Just been doing some number crunching and crime figures for basildon borough council area in 2014 was 18101 and in the year of 2015 for obviously the same area the crime figures shot up to 19642 - which is a increase of 1542 over a period of a year. Other interesting numbers are showing that Essex Police have a lower figure of police officers than other police constabularies. (will confirm these figures with authorities asap. Will be interesting to see the figures for 2016. So should be trying to sleep, but thanks to the scumbag who broke in - thats not so easy to do
