I am absolutely GUTTED!!I was hoping too get in the regulars after a some experience as a special so my career plans have gone down the drain and i will have too have a re think as I can't see my circumstances changing in the future so it seems i won't be having the career in the police I have been working towards.I have no criminal record at all and as far as i knew my family and partner have no major criminal convictions or such like but there's obviously some reason and i trust vetting on their decision. I have pr…

Later..... ...Got into a foot chase with a shouted up to the control room that I had a runner and was ignored by the operator not once but TWICE!!! they kept cutting me off. trying to pass rubbish jobs to the cops on the shift due to the fact this I activated my radio alarm to enure that my transmitions got through, which they did but the control room had NO idea who had activated thier ALARM, this time it was not that i was getting my head kicked in or somthing like that but it may be next time…
