Who are they? There's no information released so far about who they are or where they come from, never mind what sort of unique specialist skills do they possess which qualify them to be included in this new police squad as 'volunteers'. My view is that it will be the 'volunteers' directing and guiding the police about who to go after on social media platforms, such as Twitter, Facebook, Football Message Boards, etc, etc.
