WAPOL MIGs axed

Post by gkoutlis »

Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, considering the group did an awesome job while they were around....

A sad day indeed.

Seems to be a popular theme in aussie police departments - Axing units only to reform them later when they finally realize that they were needed.

RIP MIG.

I agree.

Just like the TRG which won't be axed (thank God) - the MIGs had a massive role as well, and I think as a group you could always count on them when the incident would hit the fan....

Very disappointing that the government is shutting down vital depts down, and not on Government Personal Spending! :evil:
