YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has announced the biggest overhaul of the police service in England and Wales in nearly 200 years.

Her reforms include reducing the number of forces, the creation of a "British FBI" and using data and AI to predict criminal activity before it happens.

Some of this has been heard before - so exactly how radical are these reforms? And will they make forces fit to tackle the changing nature of crime?

Niall is joined by Sky's crime commentator Martin Brunt.
