Phone 101 and you'll be lucky if anyone bothers to answer before you get a message saying to contact via social media or email or die of old age, so what do people do? They phone the emergency 999 number and clog it up. Though if someone has just stolen your car or chucked a brick through your window its an emergency for you.
