    The police have a choice. They can not make the arrests because they believe it’s safer not to.

      But it’s obviously not unsafe to make those arrests.

      They have a choice to not enforce this law and focus on other breaches of the law. But it is parliament who makes the law (and government who makes secondary legislation), and the police shouldn’t have the power to just nullify any law they don’t like.
