SILENCE

Reading Time: 2 minutes Sshhhhh, can you hear it?………………….Neither can I. That is EXACTLY the reaction to my survey, and its results. I have received a few comments, both public and private, from my readers, and I’ve been amazed, and occasionally humbled, by the support I have had from some of my non-Police readers, the main protagonists will know […]

Have Your say – Let’s Tell HMG How The Police Service SHOULD Be

Reading Time: < 1 minute In just a few weeks Call Me Dave will hopefully be an unpleasant memory, and regardless of who gets in the shape of Policing is destined to change even more than it has already. I have devised a short series of questions to establish what the POPULATION thinks. Police, Ex Police, Never-Been-Police, all are welcome

When The Music Stops or #CutsHaveConsequences

Reading Time: 3 minutes #CutsHaveConsequences is a hashtag that’s been used a lot in the past few weeks, and rightly so. It got me to thinking. Every single Force in the land has suffered cuts since 2010, all in the name of Austerity. Their respective PCC and Chief a Constable have formed plans to cope with the savagely slashed

V For Vendetta, V For Vindictive And V Is For Vengeance

Reading Time: 4 minutes All of the above seemingly apply to you Home Secretary, although you’re not really the Home Secretary are you? You’re just another Tory Puppet trying to make Camoron’s 2006 visions become a reality. A REAL Home Secretary, of any party, would CARE for his/her Police Service. I know the Federation upset you, but oh deary

Going To Market – The New Outsourcing/Privatisation

Reading Time: 2 minutes It seems like a large Police Force in London has quietly taken the decision to go private, or “to the market” as they poncily like to call it. What does this mean? What has happened? Should we be concerned? Is this simply the thin end of the wedge? Anyway, this large Force has been deliberating,
