  3. OK folks So in the new year we are looking to have a bit of a spring clean. We'll be reviewing all forum areas and content so don't be surprised of some things move around a bit. With that in mind is there anything you would like to see more of? Less of? Something new? The forum is only as good as it's members and it you folks that make it worthwhile. All suggestions will be considered so don't hold back. I shall try to answer any questions you may have on here. but if you want to message me directly then I can assure you I will remain anonymous (if that's what you want). One we start to make any changes I shall endeavour to document them all into a new thread so you can see what was new. Anything we change or adopt from one of your suggestions you will of course where appropriate be acknowledged publicly.
  4. To all our wonderful members .... Many of you will know that the team here at Police Community have been involved in the running and administration of not only Police Community, but www.policespecials.com www.policeuk.com and www.ukpoliceonline.co.uk for many years, in some cases since as early as 2004. In 2014 Police Community was the newest addition to the forums and grew from strength to strength. In 2016 we purchased the other three forums to create the largest network of policing forums in the UK, something we are exceptionally proud about. As with every business we have to consider what is the most viable and beneficial way to take each of the forums forwards. In some areas of the group we have seen decline, such as within the Special Constabulary and in other areas some growth with the large scale recruitment into regular policing across the UK. Over the last two years we have maintained each of the forums as separate entities and our moderation team have worked tirelessly to keep all four forums going and as legitimate entities. With this has come some difficulties in terms of identity and we have had several discussions over the last two years about how best to take them all forwards. We have decided that the best way to progress and ensure that the business model is sustainable moving forwards is to amalgamate all four forums into one single "super" forum here at Police Community. Whilst I know some members will be nostalgic over the other forums, a feeling we as a team also share, we also feel that it is the right time to take this bold and exciting step into the next chapter of the UK's largest policing forum. So work has begun on migrating content from the other forums across to here and this will continue over the coming days. All topics, posts and member accounts from all four forums will merge into Police Community. If you already have an account on police community sharing the same email address then your account will be merged. If you do not have an account here then your account will be migrated. All your posts topics and content will also be migrated across and over the next few days moved into corresponding areas of the forum. You literally have nothing to do other than to continue posting, engaging and enjoying the forum and other members. The only difference is that the content will now be here rather than on the legacy sites. We are working hard to make sure all web addresses map to the migrated topic on this forum so that everything is as seamless as possible. If you have any comments or questions please just drop a note below and one of the team will get back to you. As always thank you for your continued support and we look forward to you continuing to enjoy Police Community for many years to come. Best Wishes Chief Bakes Administrator & Co-Founder RAW Digital Media Limited

    Tears for Tiers

    So with the country now in different tiers with different restrictions how's it going for you? No need to say which tier you are in if you don't want to but how is it affecting you and what you do? I'm wondering mainly how the different restrictions around the country are affecting every day life. I am personally in a tier 3 area but I must say it hasn't changed much for me over the last 9 months. I don't go out much at all as I can work from home and I have my shopping delivered. It worries me a bit about what is going to happen at Christmas but that is weeks away yets so things may change. I'm very sad that I can't go out with friends and colleagues but needs must in these crazy times. So how is is going for you?

  8. Ian Naude: Cheshire PC convicted of raping 13-year-old girl 15 November 2018 Image copyright Cheshire Police Image caption Ian Naude admitted having sex with the teenager, but said it was consensual A policeman described as a "committed paedophile" has been convicted of raping a 13-year-old girl. PC Ian Naude, 30, joined Cheshire Constabulary "to gain the keys to a sweetshop" through access to potential victims, Liverpool Crown Court heard. The rape, which took place in his car, was filmed on his mobile phone. Footage of the attack was played to the jury. It has emerged Naude was already being investigated for sex offences when he became a student officer in April 2017. How a predatory paedophile become a PC Naude, of Market Drayton in Shropshire, was also found guilty of four charges of attempting to arrange the commission of a child sex offence and one charge of arranging a child sex offence, relating to five complainants aged between 12 and 15. The father of one, originally from South Africa, previously admitted 31 offences relating to grooming underage girls via a fake Facebook and Snapchat profile. Image copyright Cheshire Police Image caption Naude raped the girl after being called to her home to attend a domestic incident Cheshire Constabulary said Naude had passed the vetting process in October 2016 but that allegations of sex offences being investigated by two neighbouring forces in early 2017 did not get picked up. Latest news from the West Midlands During his two-week trial, Naude denied rape and sexual assault as he claimed the sex with the 13-year-old girl was consensual and that she "seemed to be enjoying it". The court was told he met the girl after he was called to her house over a domestic incident in October 2017. After looking her up on Facebook and exchanging sexual messages and photos, he returned to her home three days later. He picked her up while her mother was out and drove her to a country lane where he attacked her. Image copyright Cheshire Police Image caption Naude used names including "Bruce Wayne" and "King of the North" on fake profiles Naude deleted more than 750 photos from his phone after an "administrative error" meant he had been copied into emails relating to the police investigation into his conduct. He also concealed other devices including a second phone and a laptop in a field in Market Drayton. Cheshire Constabulary said this had "frustrated" and "set back" the investigation. Texts sent by Naude revealed a pattern, always starting conversations with "Hi, you look pretty and interesting", before quickly demanding nude images and threatening to expose girls to their friends if they refused. Image copyright Cheshire Police Image caption Naude threatened to expose his victims if they did not comply with his demands Cheshire Police's Det Ch Supt Aaron Duggan said Naude "joined police intentionally to commit this type of offending. "We know from our investigation that he's a sexual predator, a groomer and he's also a chancer." Acting Chief Constable Janette McCormick said she believed Naude had been working alone but it would be "naive" to think there were not other offenders within Cheshire Police. She has also said the force is now investigating other potential offences by Naude. Rape accused PC said girl 'enjoyed it' 'Paedophile' PC 'demanded nude pictures' 'Paedophile' PC 'raped teenage girl' Judge Clement Goldstone warned Naude he faced a "very significant sentence" and that even his defence conceded he had been "fairly depicted... as a cold, uncaring, selfish and cruel paedophile". An NSPCC spokesperson said it was "evil" of Naude to "shamelessly label it [the rape] consensual". Naude will be sentenced on 13 December. View the full article

    Is is dinner time yet?

    Here's a conversation we've had before, more than once. So what time is dinner time? In my house we have : Breakfast - In the morning when you get up Lunch or Lunchtime - Middle of the day. A smaller meal to keep you going until the main meal of the day Dinner - Usually around 5pm to 6pm and the main meal of the day. Usually the largest amount of food in one sitting Supper - Later in the evening, usually a very light snack before retiring to bed Now I know some people say that dinner time is mid day but this is just wrong although that is my opinion. So what time is your dinner and how are your meals spread out and titled?
