    • Hello Police Community Members,

      We hope this post finds you well. As a community dedicated to fostering open discussions and sharing insights, we would like to extend an invitation to all current serving regular officers, special constables, police staff, or PCSOs to contribute to an exciting initiative – "Behind the Badge."

      What is "Behind the Badge"? "Behind the Badge" aims to offer our community an insider's perspective on the life of a police officer. We believe that the experiences, challenges, rewards, and day-to-day responsibilities of those working in law enforcement are often misunderstood or not fully appreciated. This initiative aims to bridge that gap by allowing you, our esteemed members, to share your unique insights and stories.

      How Can You Contribute? If you are a serving regular officer, special constable, police staff, or PCSO, we invite you to contribute by sharing your thoughts, experiences, and stories about life "Behind the Badge." You can discuss the challenges you face, the rewards you find in your work, and the day-to-day responsibilities that come with your role.

      Feel free to touch upon topics such as:

      Daily routines and responsibilities


      Unique challenges faced on the job


      Memorable experiences or cases


      Rewards and fulfilling aspects of your work


      The human side of law enforcement




      How to Share Your Story: You can contribute in a variety of ways:

      Written Contributions: Post your experiences as a reply to this thread.


      Media Content: Share photos, videos, or other media that provide a glimpse into your life as a police officer.


      Q&A Session: If you prefer, arrange a Q&A session where members can ask you questions about your experiences.




      Your contributions will not only provide valuable insights to our community but also foster a better understanding of the challenges and rewards that come with being a part of law enforcement.

    • Liverpool's first black MP has accused police officers of racially profiling her and her family on a night out.

    • With the Diana statue being unveiled recently there was some talk about the crash and how paparazzi at the scene got into trouble for "failing to assist" which is a crime in France. I'm sure every right minded person would agree that in a situation like that there is a moral duty to assist if you are capable and it's safe to do so but is that backed up by legislation in the UK?

      I know there's a rarely used offence of failing to assist a constable, but what about failing to assist a random member of the public?

    • Has there been a time when you've seen a criminal put so much effort and dedication into pulling off a crime that you've been genuinely impressed, and think that if they put all that effort into a legitimate job they would be extremely successful.
