A fifth of Police officers in the South East may quit within the next two years

A fifth of Police officers in the South East, plan to quit within the next two years amid pay and cost of living concerns.

A survey carried out by the Police Federation of England and Wales found 83% of Sussex police and Surrey Police officers were “dissatisfied” or “very dissatisfied” over their pay. For Kent Police it was 80%.

In Kent and Sussex, the top reasons for quitting were morale, pay and how the police were treated by government, while Surrey officers cited the impact on their family and personal life.
