Before 1829, there were no police anywhere in Britain. In that year, the Prime Minister, Robert Peel, set up a one force in London; they were often called Bobbies, and their nickname is still occasionally used today. There was considerable resistance to the idea of a permanent police force, rather than groups of citizens has brought together to deal with out particular problems. The early 19th century was a time of political unrest in Britain as elsewhere as in Europe, and no workers suspected (rightly, as it turned out) that the police would be used against them. A writer was named J.P. Smith warned in 1812 that the police would mean: “... a system of tyranny; an organized army of spies and informers, for the destruction of all public liberty, and the disturbance of all private happiness too.”
