recently I've had a bit of a negative image of the police, I believe they've got to messed up with political correctness, the reports I've made to them have involved race issues and they would not go near my complaints even insinuating that I was some sort of bigot.
I don't think that they should go back to the 80's police force as they became Margarets private army, they loved her with the 10% pay rise they got.
But I must say that when I really needed help as one of my kids went missing, the police behaved fantastically, efficient emphatic amazingly sharp, I felt safe in their hands.
I've had a couple of bad experiences in the past with obnoxious plastics, who just wanted to have a bit of power.
But the experience when they helped find my daughter completely6 puts thiings in perspective, it made me realise, what the hell would I have done if there were no police.

I would say that if libertine and his cronies went to trash / demo against a local business they would end up beaten to the ground and getting five years in the cooler.
Lovely country, lovely people etc ... But a very controlled environment.

I am a pacifist vegetarian and would not damage any persons property, especially a small local business I am also a member of the FSB
Did you know a strange one! A corporation has the same rights as a person has excepting that its not culpable for its sins, I am very much against privatisation and would happily welcome re nationalisation, there is a reason that some things were not subject to capitalisation.
You carry on chewing your Scooby snacks whilst others try and make the world a better place.
I absolutely hate the way the police are misused by the government the vast majority of the police are good guys, in the same way as the vast majority of people in general are good.
Those policemen who came to my house and genuinely tried their very hardest to find my young blood, were impeccably behaved and brilliant at their job.
The government should separate the real police force from those men who think they have a right to harm the public when demonstrating. | | | |

Child rape was suppressed to protect those in positions in power, as if the truth were to be exposed a lot of people would end up in prison. Don't get me wrong maybe 15 years ago PC probably came into it, but the problem has spread across the country and is now a pandemic. We are talking hundreds of thousands of children here according to Champion MP.
PC was used as a tool to silence people from speaking out like that whistleblower who had to undergo "racial awareness training".
What your experiencing with the police is them trying not to record your incident as a racially motivated sexual assault, as it would be bad for statistics. If the police are willing to let 2000 children be raped in a single town, how many of incidents like yours do you think they don't bother recording never mind investigating.
CSE is soooo under reported |  | | |

You need to get yourself an application form for your local force and put your negative energy in to something good.
You can change things as much as you can outside McDonald's as you can one on one managing an abusive allegation.
Think about it.
It's not about conforming its about reforming. [Post edited 10 Mar 2015 23:33]

I can't explain individual cases at which I wasn't present, how can you expect me to? I'd need a lot more information to give an opinion. I note with regard to the first incident you haven't criticised the parents of the 11 year old. As a parent, my children's welfare is down to me and I knew as my girls grew up where they were.
It's like the three schoolgirls who have gone to Syria. Their parents are hell bent on blaming the Police, instead of facing their parental responsibilities. The parents are the people who KNOW their children best and should be accepting responsibility when things go wrong.
The modern Police Service are " Society's road sweepers" called to clear up any mess seen fit by the public. We deal with so much more than our core issues whilst battling cuts in numbers by the tens of thousands. | | | |

Thank you. I joined over 26 years ago with certain ideals, ideals which I still try to uphold today. Police officers in the main are a dedicated bunch whose main aim is to protect the public and lock up the bad guys. We don't get it right all the time but that does not deflect the intentions and dedication of the officers across the country.
As someone said earlier, some people on here should move to other countries and see the sort of Policing there. The UK Police Service is still rightly regarded as one of the best in the world, that doesn't come about by accident. | | | |

I guess they are having a taste of what happened to the miners. Bragging about their overtime pay. They didn't have much sympathy for other working men. Karma is tough isn't it? |  | | |

you need to let go .
Its wasn't just the mining industry that went ape.So did Steel, ship building, cotton spinning ,wool weaving,fishing too. Trouble is Police have been demonised by previous generations so any possible sense of perspective is lost, which is pitiful.
Plenty of workers in Lancashire lost their jobs when cheaper imports killed it. They shut Hundreds of Mills but the people have moved on. You clearly haven't.
Witney is a good man and he is the type of standard copper that this country needs and wants and constantly slagging off over something that happened over thirty years ago is sadness itself but seems people in Wales need to feel bitterness to keep going.

It's not about karma. The fact of the matter is that when officers now retire they won't be replaced. Nobody is made redundant, nobody loses their livelihood so your comparison is not only wrong but ridiculous really.
The only losers are the public themselves who will have to wait longer for officers to respond . Trust me, if you are whinging about the Police now, just wait until the cuts get past a critical point and see what sort of 'service' you'll get. | | | |

Police were misused by Thatcher and Hillsborough was a disgrace -although comment iks often made on here about scousers vis a vis playing martyrs. Well ,ya can have it both ways.
Quite what contro wants Im not sure ,maybe a socialist community elected police force with no real power- seems that word is hated too.
Have a go at my generation of Plod but not someone who does a good job against all the odds for people like you unable or unwilling to see what they do. Frankly, anyone joining now must be certifiable. The bond of the past weigh heavy for sure.
I have heard of what cuts are coming to Merseyside Police next year and tbh its frightening but for criminals its Christmas and New Year. One good thing though will become of it and that is that the general public so fookn cowardly wont know what hits them, because you wont be able to call on Police at all if in the shite..

Never had a problem with them. On the occasions I have needed their help, they've been great.
Only two occasions (one at the Vetch, the other walking home with some friends from the Vetch) did I encounter individual officers who thought they were clever and tried to intimidate me.
Also know one ex copper who is an absolute moron, but that's another story.
The rest have always been fine to me | | | |

For the majority of time yes, personally they haven't faired well at football matches at times, one we all know about so lets not go there but overall, they are as dedicated as any of us are at what we do.
I find it hard to personally attack a whole institution and tar them with the same brush as much as all football fans aren't thugs, just some. That is the start of division and the start of dividing people up in to categories, an example, would be targeting black people in certain areas for street robbery offences which was big news ten years back. it's too easy to categorise everyone from one quarter and give everyone the same name.
It doesn't work, and you know it doesn't. [Post edited 11 Mar 2015 17:20]

Mr Perch,
people don't want to let go in the same way that they want to support the red tory party.
Most people who were affected by the wicked will of the Wests austerity cuts are still alive living in squalor up in the dark valleys, how can you forget when your still in it everyday looking out the window onto the barren landscape scarred by the pick that you could no longer wield, your only source of comfort a spliff of high THC skunk in one hand and a can of white lightning in the other, all the pubs and shops still boarded up, how can you forget when your living it, you still vividly remember the police officers that you once had respect for laughing at you as they showed off their pay cheques whilst your children starved, no longer even getting the little bottle of milk that had become customary, once proud strong men now they only survived because of the hand outs of others, how do you let go of that Perch?
The police union should not have allowed that to happen it was and still is a disgrace and they should apologise for what they did, at least then they can get some respect back from the public they serve. | | | |

1well as soon as I mentioned the fact that the people who robbed my daughter were eastern eurpoean, the telephonist did not want to know, until then she was happliliy typing. Perhaps they found her attractive, well I said surrounding someone in an intimidating manner is a strange way to pick up a girl. She wouldn't go any further with the complaint/incident.
2When my daughter was none seriously sexually assaulted by a taxi driver, I found then police absolutely rubbish none of the cameras showed clearly the number of the taxi although they could track down the taxi's journey around the local area into the Uni and then they could see the taxi on a shops cctv camera.
The taxi was a white transit van sliding side doors, but it was white which most of the other big taxis were not, the taxi driver was bald in his mid thirtees and Asian not well spoken English.
Easy! they said sorry we can't see the reg, there is nothing that we can do, I argued with them that why didn't they simply interview some of the taxis down to the area where they did the pick up, we live in Swansea not London so there are not so many white taxis around.
They were not interested at all they lectured my daughter about being the last one in a taxi, but as I said someone has to be. After they said they were not prepared to investigate the incident any further.
I said well if you don't I will, well how will you go about that then?, they said
wel i'll go down to the taxi rank with my daughter look for the white vans and check them out watch out for the Asian drivers, look for a bald one then have a closer look.
Oh you can't do that its racism!!! The PO was a young lady who was a genuine person and was obviously repeating what she'd been instructed to say. I could not believe it.
That was the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, the reality was in fact true treating someone differently because of their race is racism.
I didn't go down to check out the taxi drivers as my daughter was to frightened .
I was assured that there would be a letter going out to all the students at the Uni (this never happened) and the police promised that they would do a campaign about safety within taxis.
I had told the police that I did not want another man to have to go through what I had gone through, I had been put on beta blockers as my blood pressure had gone through the roof.
They did nothing, several months later there was an article in the local press about an asian taxi driver who had seriously assaulted a young student, I called the prosecuting solicitor and told her of my daughters experience but for some reason she was not interested, I thought she would have wanted more witnesses to come forward. | | | |
