I got a complaint once from two people for the same job. A motorist complained I was driving too fast on blue lights, & the person I was driving to said I didn't get there fast enough. And that in a nutshell is being a police officer. Damned if you do, & damned if you don't. 😶🚔

Final take on this week. Kids shooting and stabbing each other all across the UK. Hardly any social media outrage about ongoing murders. Dangerous dogs killed. Socmed all over it. This is where we are now. #knifecrime #compassion #priorities

Not seen this on any other News Service. Nothing. Now any decent organisation would think this would be note worthy. But no, we’re a public punch bag. So there we are, this is ok? Is it? No. RT this please Twitter, I am appalled, & saddened to be a Londoner. #ThinBlueLine 🤬

Well that's our human rights destroyed. Time to start looking at new career options...

The comments on this post... I've lost faith in humanity at this point...

This thread... Tell me you're living in a dream world without saying your living in a dream world...

Feeling very unmotivated after spending the morning reading tweets about Kaba/AFO sit Just overheard 2guys in a cafe discussing how they support AFOs handing in their tickets and how much they respect us for continuing dispite the bad press. Thanks for restoring my faith chaps!

And yet we don't tarnish all HCPs with the same brush.... So why the police then?!

When I stop people for speeding, I often ask them if they are Ben Collins THE STIG. I think it would be the highlight of my career if I stop him. But there's only one thing I would ask... "Are you the stig?"

IOPC is simply not fit for purpose and in almost every other societal situation would have been replaced with a truly independent non ideological based review system years ago

Absolutely fantastic stuff. So many times I've dealt with MOPs who have given CPR is traumatic circumstances, only to be expected to return right back to daily life. It's expected of us, but not of them. (Still need more help for us as well though!)

Who's the rest?!

The first passenger at Heathrow T3. passing through the now fixed border e-gates. We've been waiting over 3 hours for this moment.

You seem to have forgotten to mention your heartfelt sympathy for Martin Blake, and his family.
