When Alf King, Gang Boss is told he could get on the Local Council and so be on the Police Authority, he thought he could become a Police Boss at the same time. To the benefit of his friends and himself. His old enemy DS Harry Cuthbertson is furious (he reveres politicians)and the Home Secretary sets up a Focus Group to stop Alf - but see no practical strategy. Alf wins the Election with a thumping majority and goes to the Town Hall intending to solve all the Housing problems of the area in a matter of days. He meets Top Officials for the first time who take their routine steps to 'housetrain' newly elected Councillors. Alf is quickly reduced to subservience. He becomes assertive about his intentions for the Police though - which calls the Focus Group into Emergency Session. No practical solutions emerge - until Tarquin (the Home Secretary's Personal Secretary) provides the answer. Which infuriates Harry but also provides Alf with a welcome 'out'.
