Msn news. West Midlands police commissioner wins legal challenge against powers transfer
Radman + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
I've got to agree with you. The old system of police authorities was so much more representative aswell, made up of local councillors, magistrates etc. -

Msn news. West Midlands police commissioner wins legal challenge against powers transfer
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
One of the worst decisions in Policing was the inception of Police Crime Commissioners. They have completely Politicised Policing and not for the better. Yes the Police have to be accountable but not to a Political Appointment. -

Daily mail. Estranged husband caught his police officer wife having sex with a married inspector in a Screwfix car park before battering her lover with a torch, court hears
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
Sorry but, their behaviour just typifies one of the things which is wrong in Policing in the present days. It is totally inappropriate for an Inspector to be engaged in a relationship with one of his junior officers, single or married. -

Should GPS evidence be enough to search a property for stolen items?
Radman + replied to Equin0x's topic in General Policing Discussions
He can be alright but some of his takes are awful. One memorable example was how a car door blowing open in the wind damaging another vehicle parked next to it because the driver, a mother, was putting her children in the vehicle - he insisted that would pass the recklessness test for criminal damage... It was bizarre. No way in a 1000 years would that ever get passed an ERO or CPS.- 17 replies

Msn news. Met Police officers accused of misconduct can still be promoted, leaked memo says
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
It has usually been that if an officer has a complaint pending that any promotion will not go ahead but put on hold. Although it can sound unjust then think of the scenario that the officer is promoted and then the complain is upheld, egg on the face all round and much criticism. It used to be in the GMP when all proposed promotions had to be run through Professional Standards to check there were no outstanding complaints. -
Msn news. Met Police officers accused of misconduct can still be promoted, leaked memo says
Equin0x replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
I've seen videos where the person actually says they're going to make a complaint just to inconvenience the officer, so it makes sense that it shouldn't automatically prevent promotion and lead to restricted duties otherwise you'll just get more of that. I wonder how many of those saying they will complain actually do though, surely BWV should discourage at least some of it. -
My London. 12 London BTP officers in WhatsApp probe over 'misogynistic' chat found after 'domestic violence' arrest

When will they ever learn that innocent jovial remarks can often be misconstrued by anyone who wants to twist the context. If there are truely misogynistic and offensive remarks then those making them have only th3emselves to blame. Whats App the easiest way to a P45. -

I've always thought he does quite a good job of explaining legal issues in a way us civvies can understand. And he seems fairly neutral and balanced in his commentary, at least compared to most on Youtube.- 17 replies

Msn news. Met Police officers accused of misconduct can still be promoted, leaked memo says
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
Ah complaint should be judged on its merits and the severity. The investigating officer often realises the severity and voracity and can, and should suspend if it is necessary. The original post did not differentiate between Misconduct and Gross Misconduct. There can never be a Carte Blanch not to suspend. -

Msn news. Met Police officers accused of misconduct can still be promoted, leaked memo says
Sceptre + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
Given that the overwhelming majority of investigations turn out to be unfounded or vindicate the officers involved, and the title talks of misconduct and not gross misconduct, that seems like a sensible state of affairs to me. -

NCA. Men jailed for attempting to smuggle migrants including a 6-year-old boy out of the UK
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
Ironic that such action was taken when they were actually smuggling illegal migrants out of the UK. It is understandable that if they are able to smuggle people out of the country then they are obviously able to smuggle illegal immigrants into the UK. The only interest that they would have is making money out of misery. -
Daily mail. Grieving widow of Met Police officer who was fatally shot in custody cell Matt Ratana sues the force over 'shoddy and inadequate' search of killer
Zulu 22 + replied to Member of public 1 +'s topic in UK Policing News
This was a complete waste of life on someone who was a dedicated and highly respected officer. It is absolutely unbelievable that the firearm was not discovered in the search on the arrest. Even a cursory search should have discovered an under arm holster containing a revolver. It would be interesting to know what action is or has been taken regarding the arresting officers and the lack of search. A tragic and totally avoidable death. RIP Matt. -
