“Congratulations Mr Bangham on your appointment.
Would it be too much to ask that you have a higher public profile when it comes to being seen by your staff and officers than the present full time director of SouthWest One and part time Chief Constable Colin Port.
A Chief Constable whom many staff have only seen in photographs and on the television !”
