What about the name of jail.

They also get called the Old Bill, the Boys in Blue, pigs, rozzers, cozzers, bobbies, the filth and Plods.
But officially they're called the Police - at least that's what they put on their cars :o)

They are called Police i'm English trust me. Other slang terms include Coppers, Bobbies, Pigs ( rarely - only to gangsters of course). They are also referred to as the Constabulary if you want to get picky and the jails are called prisons.

Errr,
England invented the Police - and yeh we call them the same thing as you guys and all our former colonies (apart from Southern Ireland which likes to be different) call them POLICE.
You and 3/4 of the world use the same name... POLICE.

Since the UK is an english speaking nation, I would think Police would still be Police...

They call them Bobbies. :) It doesn't matter if it's English speaking...it's like the soda vs. pop debate. It's can be different.
