Sarah Olney MP reports in her latest Richmond Park News:
“Earlier this week, I met with the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Sir Mark Rowley, to relay the high number of correspondence and feedback that I have received from Richmond Park residents regarding the potential cuts to the Parks Police.
Sir Mark Rowley stated his sincere value for the work undertaken by the Parks Police, but he reiterated that difficult decisions may have to be made due to the significant shortfall that the Met are facing. Following this meeting, I wrote to the Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper MP, to underline the important service that the Parks Police provide to Richmond Park, and all of the parks in London, and to call for the Home Office to provide our police force with sufficient funding to ensure that such cuts are not on the table.”

As is noted in the previous post there is no obvious recognition of the real issues involved. It is apparent that the battle needs to proceed on all fronts.
