Thank you to all who spoke and took part today at #PoliceConf22, including Martin Hewitt and @MarcJonesLincs for their opening remarks, and Home Secretary Suella Braverman MP for an engaging keynote speech. We look forward to welcoming delegates back tomorrow for day 2!

"Strengthening police culture so it is more inclusive, better at listening and involving the public in its decisions and has the highest professional and ethical standards is as important as our crime fighting." #PoliceConf22 Martin Hewitt's words in full: orlo.uk/GDInJ

We will remember them. #LestWeForget #ArmisticeDay #RemembranceDay

As a former British Army 🇬🇧 officer, #RemembranceSunday is always an important and poignant occasion for me. Later this morning, I will join others to pay my respects #LestWeForget
