Manchester Police to tweet for 24hrs

To highlight the number of calls they receive and to show how overworked they are, Greater Manchester Police are tweeting all incidents for a 24 hour period.

Spread over three accounts, the rate of tweets being too much for one account, gmp24_1, gmp24_2 and gmp24_3, at the time of writing, are up to 946, 577 and 695 tweets respectively.

Big Mac number 11. No pickle. Sweet & sour sauce.

It's interesting to see the types and number of calls they receive with this one catching our eye for some reason:
