basically, do you know the number, and dont you think it would of been easier to have a shorter number like just 0845

I agree.It is a stupidly long number and impossible to remember,especially when you are under pressure or panicking

I think it comes into whether or not it is an emergency. It would be nice if police had an alternative to non-emergency crime in progress, police response requested. I know in my town you call the non emergency number and it is specifically to request police response. In the states we do 911, dont' see why we can't have an 811.
