Here you have it, from an interview in today's RG:
"We want to fight crime, drugs, and have a society that is safe for everyone. I can't direct the Minister for Public Safety to direct the Police Commissioner to do the following because he answers to the Governor. He responds to and respects the Minister but we don't control the chief cop in this community.
Nonsense. Utter nonsense. More on this later.
