We need senior Fed reps willing to stand up & take risks to ensure everything possible is done to restore our original pensions, or as much of them as possible. My track record shows that, if members elect me as their Chair, they can rely on me to do so. #VoteCookie4Chair

I am standing in an election where all police officers in West Midlands from Constable to Chief Inspector who are members of WMP Federation will be able to vote for a Chairperson. An email will land around or shortly after Wednesday 17th November 2021 with instructions.

VOTING BEGINS TOMORROW. EMAILS WILL LAND. VOTE, VOTE, VOTE. If you want a strong voice for WMP & a push for change in the Fed - #Retweet #VoteCookie4Chair @CopsAgainst Federation Reform Group

The minimum position we will reach is 10’s of thousands of officers with significantly better pensions (7 years extra on legacy schemes) when they come to retire.

This is potentially misleading: Thames Valley Police fails to sack officers for misconduct – even when it leads to death. It is misleading for three reasons. 1/ George Roberts readingchronicle.co.uk/news/19917177.…

Double crewing increases detection rates & reduces incidence of serious assaults on officers. Rushing from job to job is ineffective. The truth. Rank & file have been saying this for years. @ResponseWMP @AndyParsonsWMP touch.policeoracle.com/news/article.c…

I’ve known Skye for over 20 yrs. Crewed up regularly for a while. A genuinely good cop. She just wants to live her life as she wishes. Who is anyone else to denigrate her for that?! If we truly believe in freedom it has to apply to ALL equally within the usual limits.

Today my years of campaigning delivers a change to legislation. With buy in from all the users I know this change will achieve the policy objectives I sought and officers need. NEW POLICE DRIVER LEGISLATION. IN TODAY 30/11/22

If govt are implying there are “safe staffing levels” for crucial services eg. #Nursing to facilitate them striking, then surely it’s only right #Police have the same right? I don’t think we’re any more or less vital a service? Great point from Lee Broadbent theguardian.com/politics/2023/…

Interesting thread. Lee Broadbent resigned as Chair but what was the process to find a replacement GMP Federation ? Members were not involved. Were local workplace reps? #Transparency

A lie, as this is, can get half way around the world… especially with the help of confirmation bias… before the truth has been afforded the opportunity to tie its laces. Top first… then redress…now bottom half… it’s not a stop search as is being portrayed!

Utter nonsense. Never in 23 years of policing have I come across strip searches done like this.

A ballot on Industrial Rights for #Police is long overdue. We should get on with it without delay. touch.policeoracle.com/news/article.c…

Let’s get on with this. Elected & aspiring politicians & the public need to understand - very clearly - level of discontent there is among police officers with the way their pay & conditions have deteriorated & the lack of independent recourse or rights there are #PayOurPolice

PFEW is dismayed at political calls for handing undemocratic powers to police chiefs. It is disappointing that instead of engaging in Home Office review, Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan is undermining policing with knee-jerk reactions. Read our full statement: polfed.org/news/latest-ne…

I’m not usually lost for words or even struggle to articulate how I’m feeling, yet every time I try and put pen to paper (or thumbs to keypad as is more accurate) I’m overwhelmed by a roller coaster of emotions ranging from euphoric highs, deep rage and crushing anxiety. 1/10

GMPF were/are one of the worst offenders in all of this. The lengths elected officials (many still in office or now higher up in PFEW) went to brief against me and others was staggering. Think some saw/see it as their personal crusade to try and crush the ‘enemy within’
