AGAIN, the crisis in the police is not simply about quantity. The Met can claim they are 'not fit to serve' because of staff shortages, but they are not unique among the emergency services. Officer conduct matters too

This is what policing in London looks like when officers don't know that anyone is watching and filming: repeatedly punching a suspect in the head even though he is already restrained

The exemption shown in this article can be challenged. I am about to do just that via action against the police solicitors. I'll roadmap my journey. We see you because

Labour's Clare Moody is now the for Avon and Somerset Police. If crime reduction strategy looks like over-policing, knife crime moral panics, authorisations and police in schools then we have a long way to go. Let's see.

It is tragic that the suffering of these families has been so compounded by the callous commentary of a WhatsApp group. WhatsApp is a window into Police mentality, and what it reveals is very disturbing. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

It is good to see that the racist former DC has now been banned from policing and all law enforcement roles. In our opinion, this should have happened to the second detective too. The problem is policing itself.

On this day in 2015, Sheku Bayoh died after being restrained by 6 police officers who batoned him to the ground and cuffed his hands and ankles in Kirkcaldy, Scotland. The 31yo lost consciousness & sustained facial injuries, a fractured rib & bruises. No officers were charged.
