This will be blamed on the police and not on the gov for pulling funding away from them to the point where they are useless. How many trillion do we spend each year on making the lives of people in other countries miserable instead?

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Norfolk Police has referred itself to the independent watchdog, saying it did not respond to a 999 call from a house where a family was later found dead.
An emergency call was made from a man in a house in Costessey, near Norwich, at 06:00 GMT on Friday.
Officers later forced entry to the property at 07:15 and found the bodies of a man, woman and two young girls.
Police forced entry to the house in Allan Bedford Crescent following a call from a member of the public.
The force has confirmed its officers were also called to the same house on 14 December as part of a missing persons inquiry and said that particular investigation would now be re-examined.
The Diocese of Norwich said its "thoughts and prayers" were with those impacted by the tragic news and churches in Old Costessey and Easton would be open.
