Elected police chiefs 'bad idea'
 Hugh Orde announced his departure from Northern Ireland in April |

Sir Hugh Orde, speaking in his new role as president of Acpo, said such a system could be targeted by protest voters from special interest groups.
"Every professional bone in my body tells me this is not a great idea."
