May: 'Now is not the time to be calling for the arming of police'
The Home Secretary has defended the practise of British police remaining unarmed.
Theresa May said; "We're clear we have a British model of policing, that is the one our police very much support. I think that routine unarmed policing that goes on our streets is right. I don't think this is the time for us to be calling for the arming of police."
