Trip to Devon & Cornwall to try for The Police Commissioner

We both were away for about six weeks as Will was contesting the Role of Police Commissioner for Devon and Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, He made 22,000 votes but lost the election! He had some revolutionary schemes for the electorate. We travelled hundreds of miles in and out of the thousands of villages in Cornwall and Devon. Devon is such a vast County. Will had Mark Hambley as his Agent! Will asked both his sisters his brother in laws, but they weren't interested. So he asked the Returning Officer whether the agent could come from the US, and he said as long as he had a British address so they could deliver a summons if things had gone horribly wrong!
I was a Student in Exeter so it felt like coming home and I still have a lot of friends in the area.
Will had the idea of those in area where crime was rising there should be zero tolerance this would be in Bideford and surprisingly Hayle in Cornwall. Zero Tolerance means that a Police Officer can arrest someone and then tell the offender that if he or she does some community work for Child line in PZ or something of that kind then he or she wouldn't go through the courts and wouldn't be charged.
Then because the lady who won was being investigated by ITV for messing up with the charges of the Battle Bus and Will felt we should look at Corruption and how it effects everyone going around their own lives.
