What Have The Romans Ever Done For Us?

Reading Time: 4 minutes Sorry, What Have The Romans Ever Done For Us? is a bit misleading, it should really be entitled What Have The Tories Ever Done For Us? I stumbled upon a report issued by the Office for National Statistics back in September that seems to have slipped under the radar and avoided comment. It was entitled […]

Murders in London – The Big Grey Animal In The Room

Reading Time: 6 minutes Much has been written about the current levels of Murders in London. There has been quite a lot of anecdotal evidence and innuendo. In an attempt to put some context on the issue and hopefully move it along in a positive way I asked the Met to extract 12 months worth of data from their

Crime Is Down, Police Reform Is Working

Reading Time: 2 minutes Does that sound familiar? How long have we been hearing that particular mantra? By my reckoning we’ve been subjected to it since 2014. Is Crime down? I leave it to others to decide if Police Reform is working, but my personal opinion is that it has been an unmitigated, ill thought-out, vengeful policy that has

The State of Policing 2018

Reading Time: 2 minutes Fortuitously there has just been a release of Police Manpower (sorry, I still call it that, no offence intended) and the latest Crime Data for England and Wales. Much has been made of these latest figures both in the Press and on Social Media.  This Crime has gone up by this percentage and all that

25th January 2018 and The Great Police Reform Lie

Reading Time: 5 minutes It was a day like any other. Not much happened. Well not much of any importance anyway. Except that two official reports were published on exactly the same date. The 25th January 2018. Maybe we were never supposed to read them. Maybe our elected government thought that we couldn’t read them, or maybe they just

Smoke & Mirrors Chief Constable Style

Reading Time: 2 minutes How many times have we heard “Crime is down, Police Reform is working”? Ad Nauseum I suspect. Police Reform has turned out to be an unmitigated disaster, devised and forced through by inexperienced politicians and their hired help. Politicians who have no experience or idea of how Policing works then compound that with a stunning

Smoke And Mirrors? Meet Mirrors And Smoke

Reading Time: 3 minutes Dear reader I am typing this slowly as I know it’s a dry, boring subject that most of us don’t bother with, but unfortunately for you, I do. You may want to make yourself a cup of strong coffee before you read any further. I have been looking at the strength of the various Police

Crime Is Up, Police Reform Is Working?

Reading Time: 3 minutes Listen to any Tory politician at the moment and they’ve all got the mantra off pat “Crime is down, Police Reform is working”. Is it? Let’s examine the evidence over the last few years. This week has seen the release of the latest set of Crime Statistics (up to end of December 2016) by the

Can Anyone In The Home Office Actually Read?

Reading Time: < 1 minute Just three short days ago Theresa May repeated her boring, rigid, pointless mantra that “Crime is falling”. On a visit to Portsmouth University to promote her latest cracking idea, using unpaid volunteers to investigate certain types of crime she said Crime is falling, but crime is changing and increasingly crime is moving online With the
