I want to know the answer to the following question:
What political position did Bentham think police should have?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Peel, widely regarded as the father of modern policing, was heavily influenced by the social and legal philosophy of Jeremy Bentham, who called for a strong and centralized, but politically neutral, police force for the maintenance of social order, for the protection of people from crime and to act as a visible deterrent to urban crime and disorder.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
