The HMIC has stated that most case files submitted for court are substandard. They inspected 40 files and only 3 were adequately summarised. Apparently officers ‘do not fully understand their role in taking cases to court’. The report is calling for an ‘urgent review’ of police training in legal procedures and that training would help ‘streamline’ … Continue reading →

The primary role of the police is to prevent crime, not catch criminals, Tom Winsor, the chief inspector of constabulary for England and Wales has said. Tom Winsor said focusing on would-be offenders, likely victims and potential crime hotspots would save taxpayers’ money and keep more people safe. But “primitive” technology is limiting officers’ ability … Continue reading →

The Met saw criticism for ‘massaging’ crime figures for sexual assault. Crime Figures have always been a hot potato and you know as well as I do, that certain crimes can be deemed as priority, volume or whatever, and it has been a widespread practice to ‘massage’, but there is a big difference between massaging and falsifying … Continue reading →

The second part of the low down of my year of blogs. The first part was a mixed bag – and the second quarter is no different. Let the public see complaints against the Police looked at if we had to declare every single complaint of officers, including those that aren’t substantiated, then this would … Continue reading →

The PCC Elections are finally over – I am pretty sure that it was one of the most boring days for those who were waiting for the public to turn up to vote. I hope they brought their knitting and their flasks and sandwiches! I cannot believe that in the 75 million that was spent … Continue reading →

So the Met received 23million pounds in ‘Corporate Sponsorship over 5 years. Is that a surprise? Perhaps if we were given the resources to fund everything we needed we wouldn’t have to get ‘sponsored’. I don’t know of one Police Force that doesn’t have ‘sponsorship’ of some kind. Yes, we are talking bikes, cars, posters, … Continue reading →

Before you all go WTF??! Let me make it very clear. I do not, as you all know, like anything that is going on with the Police Service at the moment and I do think the ‘Independent’ report is anything else but a farce. HOWEVER….. I have thought of some of the points and he … Continue reading →

Having listened to Theresa May rattle on at the Police Federation Conference today I was boiling from the offset. She started off with our fallen colleagues, mispronouncing their names, and then went on about budget cuts and the current state of our economy blah blah blah, but she could not sorry, would not answer to … Continue reading →

Having just seen the speech of Theresa May, I could see she was twitchy. She started off by naming officers we had lost last year, and some were saying ‘how dare she’ and ‘she has no right’. She went on to explain about the 20% cuts in funding by the government and that we were … Continue reading →

It appears that he has mental health issues, and firearms and police negotiators are on scene. Just at a time when the government are cutting us down, there are … Continue reading →
