https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peelian_Principles
Every police officer should be issued an identification number, to assure accountability for his actions.
Whether the police are effective is not measured on the number of arrests, but on the lack of crime.
Above all else, an effective authority figure knows trust and accountability are paramount. Hence, Peel's most often quoted principle that "The police are the public and the public are the police."
http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/70767/bobby
The British police, popularly known as “bobbies,” wear a uniform that is nonmilitary in appearance. Their only regular weapon is a short, wooden truncheon, which they keep out of sight and may not employ except in self-defense or to restore order. Police on a dangerous mission may carry firearms for that specific occasion.

So they don't expect the general public carrying anything more dangerous than a banana: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piWCBOsJr-w
