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 Met saw criticism for ‘massaging’ crime figures for sexual assault.

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 →

So forces are now increasing the amount of Special Police Officers….. Police Officer numbers are dropping and in order to deliver the same service we need to increase the number of Volunteers. Just how wrong is that? I started my career as a Special Constable, and I know the pressures of both Specials and Regulars. … 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 →

The other issue is is this really going to save money, or just a way for security firms to get richer? Mr Taylor-Smith states that that he expects police forces across the … Continue reading →

I was mooching round with a PC last night and we had a very interesting conversation. We were so short of officers that I crewed up and we dealt with several incidents.

Why do we try to explain? I have had, as have many of my colleagues, many conversations with people we stop and deal with and it is difficult to get through to some about the career path that we choose. I guess the most favourite phrase they use is I pay your wages It’s a … Continue reading →
