3:30 How many police who are convicted of a crime with the option of a custodial sentence actually serve one? Also, being filmed by members of the public gives 'bobbys' a perfect opportunity to showcase their understanding of the law, and yet most fail spectacularly. A beautiful example is The Met Police 👮🏼
I understand what you’re saying but it’s a two way street, I asked a police officer a question once and she put her hand on me and told me to go, so where is the respect to me and I’m disabled as well.
Not enough context, or detail....there may have been a very legitimate reason she wasn't able to help you or even have time to explain why, but you were just vague enough and damning enough for others to think the worst. Please elaborate
Just like police officers don't like to be tied or grouped together because there are some good ones, auditors don't like to be tied and grouped together too because there are also some good ones
I love auditors, especially the ones who do it correctly and not just trying to get a rise. I also respect your right to talk about the fact your not so keen on them.
At the risk of creating an infinite loop of commenting, I would be interested in seeing your analysis of some of Audit the Audit's videos. They are an interesting channel from the USA, they assess both the police and the other people involved and give a grade based on the behaviour, knowledge of the law etc. I like it because they give credit where credit is due to police, where they are a good example. But I 100% agree with you that stalking a police officer or their family is completely unacceptable
@@serenityinside1 you make a good point, I just thought Audit the Audit was a good example of a close-to-objective (nobody is 100% objective) perspective on law enforcement interactions. For better or worse I think the situation in the USA is more visible than it is here in the UK.
Man I was looking for a UK version of that channel. Exceptional channel for breaking down interactions based Purley on the law. Wish we had a constitution 😔
Oh, and i think we need the police more than ever, but not corporate police, we need police to protect common law and the man and woman on the streets. Thats where its gone wrong.
I'm not a criminal but have been a little shit but always treated the police with respect and received the same back, same as I treat a mcdonalds worker with respect, regardless of the job you do respect is a simple and easy act
I completely agree that they push boundaries sometimes but police need to realise the best thing to do is ignore them the reason these videos are so viral is because police rise to the auditors and in 100’s of videos make themselves look stupid.
thats all well and good but thats not how auditors work if they just appeared out of nowhere stood quietly off to the side and did or said nothing other than film that would be fine but they don't do they they walk up to the officer and they start running there mouths and agroing a already intense situation making things worse interfearing and other stupid crap infact some even manufacture situations they know are stupid then try and play victim when shit goes wrong one that comes to mind is the croydon auditor he was walking around the police station outside videoing specifically he was videoing the secure compound where they transfer arested people from the car into the custody suite police came out and was concerned due to anti terrorism measures and stuff he made out and even the commentators made out they was over reacting... not 1 month later at that same police station in the secure car park where he was trying to film a criminal stabbed several police officers and rightfully so police wanted to have a word with him cause its strange isn't it how a guy is filming the procedures in the secure car park and then less than a month later someone gets stabbed there as if they knew what the deal was and how lax security there was maybe it was a coincidence maybe not either way fuck off and stop being a moron and videoing highsecurity locations because there not over reacting because there's proof of what can go wrong
Fully agree. Police should be held accountable for wrong doings and corrupt or criminal bobbies can get to fuck. But going up to them and deliberately kicking off or being belligerent towards them in the hopes of a reaction or out of some sense of superiority is wrong and pathetic.
@@AYTAZED but that’s just speculation. But that being said, if you cover up a crime, then you also can get to fuck. No chance would I risk my career and life on the crime of another
Ignore them is the answer. They are normally always acting within the law. And they want to flex this and push it to the absolute boundary. Reason: for views. Most of the time they’ll provoke a response out of security guards and police officers. Everyone loves to see an argument or confrontation. Auditors know this. RUclips will pay them to be provocative.
Well said Ben! This video makes me want to stand up and give you a round of applause. Love your videos. You’re an amazing guy, an inspiration to those with mental health and all round great guy. Keep being amazing ✌️❤️
my locality Bradford . im of a differing opinion , many auditors have been paid compensation for filming in public , with the police brutally attacking them verbally and physically all on camera . for conducting a legal activity , opinions are opinions , you say get a job , are you not being paid by google ? its a shame pc Keith boots based at eccleshil and his son was not audited . A police inspector who was found with 11kg of cocaine in his washing machine has been jailed for 26 years.A Geoffrey Marson QC described Boots, of Norman Lane in Eccleshill, Bradford, as "a disgrace to to the uniform he once wore". "Your arrogance was your downfall because no-one would doubt the word of a trusted police officer."
Methinks you protest too much fella. However I appreciate your honesty admitting it's the crown you serve and not the public at all. More people need to realise this important fact.
I agree with some of what you said, but a lot of it sadly not. I think in recent times the term auditor has been used as a blanket term for anyone filming the police or other things. Originally ‘auditors’ were people who had an interest in public photography and filming which is completely legal, but were constantly hassled by people, and particularly the police who misused legislation and powers to prevent them doing it or just cause them grief. Auditors then started to ‘fight back’ and go to the likes of police stations to make a point that photography is not illegal and educate the police and others and to catch out those coppers that misused legislation and powers. Those original types of auditors were generally pleasant and polite and never instigated the conversations (in fact the whole idea behind auditing was to not get a reaction at all, if that happened it’s a good thing in their eyes) They only every caught out the coppers who were absolutely idiots and talked down to the public etc. Yes they go to wherever to see if they get a reaction, but the reaction they want if they do get one is a positive one, not a negative one. As I said, the best reaction to a true auditor is no reaction at all. The other point I disagree with is the private vehicle argument, if someone has beef with an officer, the people with the grudge aren’t going to be trawling RUclips just in case that copper is seen in their motor. All they would do is sit outside out of sight and wait for that officer to leave and follow them. I don’t see it as a risk personally. As for respect, unfortunately there’s a growing awareness of the bad cops, we all know that on the whole the majority of cops are alright, unfortunately the bad ones stand out and if someone has a bad experience with one like I have, then they are going to be more aware of the rest and have less trust or respect for them, it’s the way it works these days. The way cops can go around it is regardless of how someone initially interacts with them, stay professional and polite rather than act like a lot of the cops seen on these videos. However, unfortunately certain people have jumped on the bandwagon of auditing, these type of people who set up and deliberately antagonise cops or other people with abuse or other behaviour are not auditors, they are people with a camera and are completely different, I guarantee if you asked any true auditor, the type that are pleasant and polite and interact on the level they get spoken too, their opinion of the likes of Marti Blagborough and the other trouble makers calling themselves auditors would not be a good one.
Two questions, Ben. Both binary - YES or NO! 1) have you EVER observed any officer doing ANYTHING against the law? 2) Have you EVER given evidence against any fellow officers in a tribunal or court of law? So??
I'm surprised that people don't understand what these auditers are doing and ignor them don't give them content, I do gringe with some of their audits, Im also disappointed with some of the police responses.
I get the feeling that a lot of “auditors” are or have been involved in criminality and have a vendetta for that reason, police are a threat to their livelihoods. If they were really “auditing” police officers, they would be observing and taking notes from a distance rather than harassing and obstructing them. They’re also generally really thick, too thick to even realise how thick they sound.
@@willyburny3074 yes it is a feeling, but I'm also in the New Zealand Police, and can confirm that this sort of mindset of having a grudge against police is generally brought about by being brought up on the other side of the law as well.
@@lucavangorkom9453 Absolutely! Now there are some bad apples in all police forces, my brother fell victim to one, the guy was nuts. We were parked up at a small car meet, all engines off and minding our own business and he came over all guns blazing. My brother tried to question his aggression and explain that we’d leave peacefully if we’re given the chance… that got him his face planted in his car bonnet, cuffed and dragged along by the cuffs whilst off his feet… what he hadn’t banked on, was that one of the members of our car club was a police officer himself, his father also a senior officer, it didn’t go down well for him.
There's also a YT channel called (UK meet the tyrants) he is one of they most stupidest ppl alive, he goes to a crash site (rtc) and put cameras in the victims face whilst upset and the police were tryna help the victim and the guy filming was freaking out at the police 🤦♂️🤦♂️
In my experience the British legal system works, as long as you're not a knob. On 3 separate occasions I've been summoned to court after been charged with iffy/made up vehicle related violations (basically the copper decided it looked illegal so it must be illegal). I was still polite to the officers involved, then went to court and proved that I wasn't doing anything wrong and so was let off. Me and/or a auditor screaming in their face that I knew the officers were in the wrong from the start would just have escalated the situation and more likely the outcome would be different.
@@AS-ri1mb mouth off is not unlawful as is not not collaborating with the police, you just agreed police use their position to quote & quote teach a lesson which has nothing to do with the law only just because citizens did not had a subservience attitude towards them as if citizens were their personal slaves, there to serve the police in any request, 99.99% of police officers are crooks
It is really simple but you don't seem to understand it. Retirement hasn't seemed to dull your one eyed perspective. Auditors exercise their civil rights and push the boundaries to get a reaction. The real problem is that the Police and security staff seem to not be aware of the law relating to public and private space. The level of ignorance is frankly shocking. Instead what we often see is that they tend to make up the law or bend the law to intimidate and persecute these auditors. making up their own version of what the law is seems to be a common thread. If the Police and security staff understood the law relating to private property and public space, and, behaved professionally then there would be almost no interest in auditing videos. Auditing videos have really exposed a lot about current Policing standards and behaviour.
I’ll explain it…….Auditors are dicks 😂😂😂 and I can’t actually believe you took time out of your day to write a boring comment to try and justify yourself and their actions 🤦🏻♂️😂😂😂😂
@@BenPearson1965 The fact is that auditors have exposed the unprofessionalism of Police and security staff. this is the isue, not the behaviour of the auditors themselves. Of course some people such as yourself can't handle the reality of that. Time and again the Police are seen to have poor understanding of the law and how to handle situations. I commented because I watched a few of these videos and I was absolutely shocked to see the incompetence. So when I see ex coppers trying to suppress reality then I am quite happy to type a few words.
Auditors are criminals with CRO numbers, halfwits with cameras…….and again…you’ve taken time from your life to reply on my page…..with a stupid comment………😂😂😂😂😂
@@BenPearson1965 "Auditors are criminals". Sorry but that is wrong from a number of standpoints, both legal and moral. i.e. for example, it is essentially not illegal to film police buildings, nor events in the public environment. Additionally to make sweeping generalisations, when factually incorrect, is prejudice. Unfortunately this is exactly the viewpoint that many Police in these audit videos seem to have and what seems to lead them into too frequently mishandling situations.
Well said , there’s a police conduct authority for a reason, if you want to “audit police” go and work for the appropriate agents 🤦🏻♂️😂 … I had a crap Big Mac meal once .. still smash a McDonalds now and again!!? 😂
I’m in total agreement……a complete waste of time, go and get a proper job. At least have some respect for those who are doing an amazing job especially in these difficult times we are living in.
Do you know how many police this year that has been fired and imprisoned for rape and even murder. Did you know how many good police officers back up a bad officer as not to lose their job? You have no idea at all how bad this world has got because of bad police officers. You are ignorant....
I see bens points but if someone wants to stand around and film its okay to do so as long as they don't get in the way. The only police who have a problem with a camera are corrupt ones! also, you say they are there to get a reaction but 9/10 times the police come to them and start being rude, they just filming for interest and when the police behave badly he can show that, nothing wrong with it!
@@AS-ri1mb how is it bs bud I have a few times iv asked for body cam footage from them telling me they were recording then upon request they tell you it dost exist what experience do you have?
I think auditors just try to annoy police officers and any sort of authority to try and wind them up to get a reaction to then report them. They need to get a life
@@thebatman4279 Police officers are humans too, though. People just like you doing their best to uphold the law and serve the community. They aren't Gods, you're expecting too much. Just humans trying to maintain order and make the world a better place, ideally.
Ben your amazing coming thru your struggle with mental health and helping others also massive respect for your police work we will never fully understand just what you see on a day to day basis. I've massive respect for the police.. I can fully understand why you left your suitcase was bursting.. Thank you for highlighting mental health
Like you say not all policeman are bad ,just like not all auditors are bad , seems to me you watch a lot of them enough to make comments on them , people also like to see the other side of policing you don't get to see
I find Autitors very anarcist like. The trouble is, im willing to bet that if they lived in an area of the world where there is no police or even next to no police, they would hate it. Louis Theroux did a documentary in South Africa where crime is just so rife and the police are so stretched far and thin that you calling SA's version of 999 was just no use. The crimes commited are unspeakable too even with children being involved. If thats the sort of world auditors wish to live in where they don't want to respect the police and abolish them in some form or another then thats the world they will bring upon theirselves. We have the police for a reason and i certainly do not want to be in a country where there isn't any law and order.
That's a lie. respect is earned. Also, if we allow people to continue to take advantage of the First Amendment, why have police at all. They have a job to protect, not deal with idiots.
I agree with you, your at work, but, a lot of Police THESE days think that they are not people, but the Police and you HAVE to do as your told, we dont, we have to go about our business in a lawful manner
well said and well done. These auditors turned up at a place where I used to work, filming cars, putting families and countless lives at risk. Several of the cars had to be resold at the owners cost. I was shocked to see some auditors getting arrested inside a police station, the desk Sgt waited for them to come inside and mouth off, he arrested them all for causing a nuisance inside a police station a little known law. They are like the church in America which gathers outside police funerals and serviceman funerals with homophobic placards. Knowing full well if arrested they can sue for money, So no one can touch them. Watching 3 Bobbies getting tied up with one auditor outside a police station for an hour is infuriating. MOP do not like police stations, they are scared of them, and if reporting a crime or a serious offence seeing auditors gathering outside means that they can not report as IP out of fear or embarrassment. A local town I know if you are from a certain area if you are seen entering a police station you and your family will get rough treatment from the estate. On one video at a establishment a Trojan was parked on the side of a road whilst auditors were outside the Trojan team would have been easily compromised. If had not been for a security guard deliberately winding up the auditors and leading them away. Police need to be audited but by professionals, who know the law, understand the law and act like real MOP covertly.......oh hang on they are! Breach of Police, First responders and Military private vehicles and housing needs to be covered by law. Including forfeiture of image gathering equipment and disposal immediately, and a register formed. I too have left due to PTSD and love what you do Ben, one day we will catch up.
Miles better than last vid I agree with you now, police need auditing but so do most auditors they are getting silly and subscriber happy now. No need for the drone at all
Auditors enjoy rattling the cage and kicking the bee hive. They're not there to "audit" anything, they're there to inflame, push boundaries - they lurk in this vague, grey area in that they behave suspiciously enough to draw attention, but aren't forthcoming to relieve all suspicion from officers. They know that loitering around a police station, filming, is going to be queried, but instead of using that as a means of discussing and reinforcing to police that they have a right to film in public (which they do), it is merely a catalyst - a spark that is used to light the powder keg of arrogant, entitled and misplaced aggression. It is pathetic. This is like me going to fire station with a petrol can and a lighter and acting outraged when they challenge why I'm doing it. I cannot stand these absolute no-lifers with a chip on their shoulder, who have nothing better to do than waste everyone's time for absolutely no sensible reason whatsoever.
Auditors are generally wasting their own time, of course there are some officers that are corrupt of course there is, but there is only one motivation for many of these auditors and that's ££££ and internet fame as it gives them the attention they never received as a child...
We got a speed limit on the m1 because of someone being a nub. Asking questions if being harassed by the police, fair enough, but unfortunately loss of mutual respect will just command more laws and restrictions… ending in totalitarianism…. 😉
Oh Ben such lovely people who in no way endanger officers and general public they just so higher than any Bobby 👮🏻♂️ massive respect too them just wish I could become one as too much free time LOL
1:10 spot on. I’ve never seen an auditor do this, it’s always the police who approach them, often in an aggressive manner. Any ‘auditor’ who does what you described is a nob i think.
you have to admit there are some very unethical auditors out there, some idiots, and some morons making auditors look terrible. Good auditors should be calling them out.
I have so much respect for Ben! And for these auditors! You try being a police officer! I am not and yes those officers who take advantage etc they should be held accountable but when you risk the families of the officer and interfere with things that you have no idea about you have no idea, how would they like it if someone filmed and questioned everything you did.
Stephen Lawrence's family understand perfectly - I'm not sure the police are the victims. The police can't restrain people without hurting or murdering them - I'm happy to post a clip. And they can't deal with people without becoming butt hurt and they certainly can't fight - during the London riots the police simply back off and let people smash up the place - after they caused the riot. It was the same in the 80s in the Tottenham riots - do you know how many police I personally saw come out of the police station - 0 So never mind the you don't know what it's like to be an police officer - I've stopped muggings without backup - without a batman utility belt bursting with weapons and against armed assailants - or is it the paperwork you're intimidated by.
As with any authority there is good and bad with out the police we would not be safe if your living your life correctly then you’ve got no problems. Respect costs nothing but no matter what you do with some people you can not win
Hey Ben, I watch all your videos, the one that broke you upset me greatly, please send me some of the shit in that shitty fucking backpack, ill look after it for you. You make me laugh and tonight you almost made me cry. Great respect to you mate, keep your chin up and get better ASAP. Regards and best wishes Phill, Victoria Australia. Cheers man.
Most Auditors are respectful though, there's only a minority that go out looking for trouble. Since watching their videos it's scary how many police are actually out there to abuse their powers.
Auditors only chose the easy targets. For example they wouldn't go to a travellers camp and film because they know that they would be beat to a pulp. They always choose the easy targets that they know that they are save around. Shame they don't all use their free time in making their local community a cleaner safer place. For example organising a little pick etc.
Thing is Ben your listing a bunch of different things that "COULD" have happened but just like when a officer is trying to find a law me or anyone as the public as a "potential" risk or crime committed 🤔
@@bensennitt8743 "potentially committed a crime" As in when the table is reversed it doesn't feel so nice does it and this is what coppers should know. Treat like a criminal with every interaction with police that feeling of be worried.... Wayne cousins is a prime example of abuse of powers. We should assume all police are the same just like they assume we are all ciminals.
As my comments on your previous video on this subject got me abuse from these auditors I’m keeping my opinion brief! Full on respect Ben! About time someone had the balls to speak out about their methodology. Police do what they do and shy away from them, instead they should be doing what you do and highlight the issue. Keep the content coming Ben
I’ve had a long conversation with my wife about the Police Interceptors series that Ben was part of. Her opinion was that every instance of police “detaining suspects” were correct and that’s how it should be. She didn’t like it when I pointed out that on many occasions things were done incorrectly. She hated that I felt they were doing things wrong until I pointed out that actual criminals were getting away with their crimes because of incorrect procedure. I think the majority of cops do a great job and respect to them. I’ve been arrested and pulled for traffic incidents and I gladly took the punishments because I knew I was wrong, so I don’t believe I’m biased. Given the stuff Ben has been through in the course of his career I believe he is one of the good ones rather than being one of the bullies.
Spot on Ben. These folk do my tits in. I agree that they go these places knowing fine well it will cause people to ask why they are filming. Who in the f**k would want to film swimming pools, Shopping malls etc? Kinda creeps me out if the truth be told. Something Jimmy Saville about they kind of people.
Whilst I agree there are some places which I personally wouldn't want someone shoving a camera in my face, I wouldn't be 'creeped out' as you put it. As for Savile types, well there are quite a few members of West Yorkshire police who met with the chap in question on a regular basis that should be best placed to answer that question.
They are the more pleasant of the auditors but like all auditors they still break the law whilst auditing, trespass for one is one thing they do a lot of and even aggravated trespass at times. I've not seen one auditor follow Article 10 correctly, even though they use it as an excuse for "their" rights.
As I stated in your last video I do not have a problem with auditors provided they do not break the law. You have highlighted incidents where you have seen Auditors being disrespectful to officers. You also have to comment where officers have abused their power. Their has been two most recent incidents where officers have abused Section 43. The NPCC set guidelines regarding auditors yet the officers ignore those guidelines. You as a former officer know full well that it is not illegal to film the Police provided you do not obstruct them during the course of their duties. It is also not illegal to film the back of a Police station or fly a drone ( provided their are no flying restrictions). In conclusion perhaps a better way for you give a balance opinion is to review some vids involving auditors and provide your views upon the officers actions.
The Police had a serious good wholesome purpose in the old days, a community bobby was on the street walking around the local community. He was known by everyone in the community. He lived in the community (he had nothing to fear from the community). We respected that bobby and he was approachable and would sort out issues for us. Now a community bobby does not live in the same area, they ride around in cars. I was approached by a female copper who claimed she had been the community bobby in our area for five years. Never seen her before, did not know who she was. She was warning me straight away that when my phone had been nicked by a smack head, I should have informed the police, instead of dealing with it myself. My reply to her was and I am sixty 'My parents taught me not to talk to strangers!' and I walked away from her. This is the issue nowadays the police are lazy, they love driving around in their metal fetish boxes and have contempt for the very people they are supposed to protect! In our community now, we don't have the police ever around, we deal with issues ourselves much more efficiently. They are not welcome. This is not our doing but theirs!
Totally agree Ben. Ive had a few of these appear in my YT feed and most of them are deliberately trying to aggravate the situation and the people ive seen come across as total tossers.
Hi Ben how do you feel when let’s say an auditor or general member of the public exposes an officers behaviour as wrong and aggressive yet his colleagues stand around silently and do not challenge their behaviour when they’re in the wrong?
@@liam77877 That doesn’t directly answer my question as to why officers aren’t challenging their colleagues behaviour when they’re clearly not acting professionally when dealing with an altercation they just stand around and say nothing when one of them is in the wrong
@@Gunners3991 Yeah I'm sure Ben would agree colleagues should step in. It's common sense. Just like I would. Have you ever stopped and thought to yourself why you see so much bad footage of the police? Because people don't upload the standard footage of the police just doing their job. It's only the bad footage that gets the views and onto your feed. There's a real world outside of social media. We have one of the best Police Forces in the world. Our cops are underfunded, understaffed and yet they work their socks off. I will stand by that until my grave.
@@liam77877 don’t get me wrong there’s a lot that do cracking job that don’t get the recognition they deserve. But I wouldn’t go as far as saying we have the best police force just look at everything regarding the MET. If you have 10 people interacting with members of staff at Asda compared to 10 with a police officer there is always more negative interactions with the police regarding attitude and behaviour
@@Gunners3991 You have compared an Asda worker, someone who's job it is to stack shelves and tell people where the custard cream isle is, with an officer who's job it is to stop knife crime, terrorism, burglary and so on. Nice one.
I always thought an Audit was done by a professional department for example quality or health or safety who report back to the HSE or relevant quality department. What confuses me is who's the governing body for the Auditers?
I've asked a good few auditors why they don't do the same say at travellers sites and out busy bars as they try to wind people up. Personally I'd pay good money to see them attempt this and enjoy the results.
Do you ask police officers why they don't go to traveller's camps and busy bars without batons, pepper spray, tasers and ten other officers standing behind them.
Agree fully with you esp re get a proper job, shame they earn a living off this. Never minded auditors at first but then just became more and more stuid, anything for likes and money it seems! Stay safe.
I can't stand this whole auditing everything culture personally. If you follow someone for long enough they'll blow a red light - if you audit a police officer for long enough they'll do something wrong! law of averages. You screw up sometimes? no? should we come audit you, yer mam and everyone on the planet just in case a minor infraction occurs? no. Remember also that we all come to work with a bit of a bad attitude every now and then, police officers are still humans and have their bad days like we all do, they still remain on the whole more professional than most fields when this happens though. You wouldn't like someone at your work shoving a camera in your face to try and catch you out on something and then broadcast it to the world when you do, would you? Exactly, let the police get on with it.
Agree 100% Ben, alot say really bad things about people from the US, i always say look dont group me in with that, i am my own person, regardless of how i feel about being born here (and for the record if i had my way i would have been born in the UK) and what other people do from the us, im my own person, i treat people like i would want to be treated, from everything that i have ever seen or heard you are so respectful to everyone, you were one of the nicest coppers i have ever seen honestly,
If I approach someone... anyone and start "giving them the piss" I'd expect to get a fat lip. Glorious video Mr Pearson, on a side note lets have a bit of CROWN IMMUNITY.
I just want to say thank you for your service, am halfway through your hotel Tango 23 book. It's brought a tear to my eye and its the first book I have read in over 10years. I have actually ordered your other book. Keep up the great vlogs. Folk are great at tying hate but most are positive. One thing I will never understand how u can get locked up for say 5years but get out on good behaviour it's like mmm. What's ur views Ben sorry if you have covered this xx
I take back my very first comment i ever put on 1 of your first videos. It was a totally different officer 😅. Your a decent fella an realistic about what you see in front of you. Your looking well compared to when you first started. Good to see people can get the help the brain needs to over come ect trauma. What your doing seems to work for you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Ben, love the content... Massive respect for everything you've done in the police and what you do now. Unfortunately what I fear you may be doing is exactly what they want... Attention. That's all they're after. Mindless knob heads without a days work in them craving for decent people's attention. Don't give them any more. Respect.
A lot of the auditor videos I've seen are no more than stupid arguments from people looking to make a dollar. Some highlight the dreadful behaviour of the police toward the public. Both times I have had interactions of the police, they have been rude and disrespectful towards me because I asserted my rights in a firm but polite manner. It really does make me feel aggrieved when I see police blatantly breaking, normally petty, laws that everyone has to abide by. So, in my opinion, some police are professional and so are some auditors.
The majority of auditors that I've watched here on YT have little to no self respect, common sense and manners. I think while photographers/journalists have a right to record Police Officers etc in public, the law needs changed to make it an offence to film/photograph Police Stations/Buildings, Military Bases, Sensitive sites etc.
3:30 How many police who are convicted of a crime with the option of a custodial sentence actually serve one?
Also, being filmed by members of the public gives 'bobbys' a perfect opportunity to showcase their understanding of the law, and yet most fail spectacularly. A beautiful example is The Met Police 👮🏼

Course he’s not keen on them. They expose him and his mates as the bullies they are.
At the risk of creating an infinite loop of commenting, I would be interested in seeing your analysis of some of Audit the Audit's videos. They are an interesting channel from the USA, they assess both the police and the other people involved and give a grade based on the behaviour, knowledge of the law etc. I like it because they give credit where credit is due to police, where they are a good example. But I 100% agree with you that stalking a police officer or their family is completely unacceptable
We don’t need any more vids from Ben of US policing thanks - let’s keep the narrative on this country!
@@serenityinside1 you make a good point, I just thought Audit the Audit was a good example of a close-to-objective (nobody is 100% objective) perspective on law enforcement interactions. For better or worse I think the situation in the USA is more visible than it is here in the UK.
Man I was looking for a UK version of that channel. Exceptional channel for breaking down interactions based Purley on the law.
Wish we had a constitution 😔
Fair play for the video, Ben. Don’t pander to these comments but anyone who pretends there “hard” on RUclips comments has much bigger issues
Oh, and i think we need the police more than ever, but not corporate police, we need police to protect common law and the man and woman on the streets. Thats where its gone wrong.
Couldn't agree more Ben some of them are completely out of order good to see your keeping well keep the good videos up and stay safe chief.
Tough.
I'm not a criminal but have been a little shit but always treated the police with respect and received the same back, same as I treat a mcdonalds worker with respect, regardless of the job you do respect is a simple and easy act
The thing is, the guy at McDonalds is simply flipping burgers. The police officer is an agent of the State.
I completely agree that they push boundaries sometimes but police need to realise the best thing to do is ignore them the reason these videos are so viral is because police rise to the auditors and in 100’s of videos make themselves look stupid.
thats all well and good but thats not how auditors work
if they just appeared out of nowhere stood quietly off to the side and did or said nothing other than film that would be fine
but they don't do they
they walk up to the officer and they start running there mouths and agroing a already intense situation making things worse interfearing and other stupid crap
infact some even manufacture situations they know are stupid then try and play victim when shit goes wrong
one that comes to mind is the croydon auditor he was walking around the police station outside videoing specifically he was videoing the secure compound where they transfer arested people from the car into the custody suite
police came out and was concerned due to anti terrorism measures and stuff he made out and even the commentators made out they was over reacting...
not 1 month later at that same police station in the secure car park where he was trying to film a criminal stabbed several police officers
and rightfully so police wanted to have a word with him cause its strange isn't it how a guy is filming the procedures in the secure car park and then less than a month later someone gets stabbed there as if they knew what the deal was and how lax security there was
maybe it was a coincidence maybe not either way fuck off and stop being a moron and videoing highsecurity locations because there not over reacting because there's proof of what can go wrong
@@Sarge92 you clearly don’t watch these videos mate
@@S7Vmv agree with you mage there not I’m all for it! Was just trying to reason with most people on this video that don’t watch audits
Lets see if you rise when someone you've never met shoves camera in ur face and starts shouting at you !
But these ’auditors’ break the law sometimes, regularly even sometimes, so why should they ignore that? But you don’t seem to know that.
Fully agree. Police should be held accountable for wrong doings and corrupt or criminal bobbies can get to fuck. But going up to them and deliberately kicking off or being belligerent towards them in the hopes of a reaction or out of some sense of superiority is wrong and pathetic.
And they are very rarely held to account, other officers will lie for them. Because if they didn't they'd be ostrasiced.
@@AYTAZED but that’s just speculation. But that being said, if you cover up a crime, then you also can get to fuck. No chance would I risk my career and life on the crime of another
Ignore them is the answer.
They are normally always acting within the law. And they want to flex this and push it to the absolute boundary.
Reason: for views.
Most of the time they’ll provoke a response out of security guards and police officers.
Everyone loves to see an argument or confrontation. Auditors know this.
RUclips will pay them to be provocative.
Well said Ben! This video makes me want to stand up and give you a round of applause. Love your videos. You’re an amazing guy, an inspiration to those with mental health and all round great guy. Keep being amazing ✌️❤️
Strange, I was not compelled to give this guy a round of applause.
my locality Bradford . im of a differing opinion , many auditors have been paid compensation for filming in public , with the police brutally attacking them verbally and physically all on camera . for conducting a legal activity , opinions are opinions , you say get a job , are you not being paid by google ? its a shame pc Keith boots based at eccleshil and his son was not audited . A police inspector who was found with 11kg of cocaine in his washing machine has been jailed for 26 years.A Geoffrey Marson QC described Boots, of Norman Lane in Eccleshill, Bradford, as "a disgrace to to the uniform he once wore".
"Your arrogance was your downfall because no-one would doubt the word of a trusted police officer."
You'd film a pile of dog shit if blue lights were flashing wouldn't ya
Methinks you protest too much fella. However I appreciate your honesty admitting it's the crown you serve and not the public at all. More people need to realise this important fact.
I agree with some of what you said, but a lot of it sadly not. I think in recent times the term auditor has been used as a blanket term for anyone filming the police or other things. Originally ‘auditors’ were people who had an interest in public photography and filming which is completely legal, but were constantly hassled by people, and particularly the police who misused legislation and powers to prevent them doing it or just cause them grief. Auditors then started to ‘fight back’ and go to the likes of police stations to make a point that photography is not illegal and educate the police and others and to catch out those coppers that misused legislation and powers. Those original types of auditors were generally pleasant and polite and never instigated the conversations (in fact the whole idea behind auditing was to not get a reaction at all, if that happened it’s a good thing in their eyes) They only every caught out the coppers who were absolutely idiots and talked down to the public etc. Yes they go to wherever to see if they get a reaction, but the reaction they want if they do get one is a positive one, not a negative one. As I said, the best reaction to a true auditor is no reaction at all. The other point I disagree with is the private vehicle argument, if someone has beef with an officer, the people with the grudge aren’t going to be trawling RUclips just in case that copper is seen in their motor. All they would do is sit outside out of sight and wait for that officer to leave and follow them. I don’t see it as a risk personally.
As for respect, unfortunately there’s a growing awareness of the bad cops, we all know that on the whole the majority of cops are alright, unfortunately the bad ones stand out and if someone has a bad experience with one like I have, then they are going to be more aware of the rest and have less trust or respect for them, it’s the way it works these days. The way cops can go around it is regardless of how someone initially interacts with them, stay professional and polite rather than act like a lot of the cops seen on these videos.
However, unfortunately certain people have jumped on the bandwagon of auditing, these type of people who set up and deliberately antagonise cops or other people with abuse or other behaviour are not auditors, they are people with a camera and are completely different, I guarantee if you asked any true auditor, the type that are pleasant and polite and interact on the level they get spoken too, their opinion of the likes of Marti Blagborough and the other trouble makers calling themselves auditors would not be a good one.
Two questions, Ben. Both binary - YES or NO!
1) have you EVER observed any officer doing ANYTHING against the law?
2) Have you EVER given evidence against any fellow officers in a tribunal or court of law?
So??
The blue line gang never see anything untoward with their colleagues !
I'm surprised that people don't understand what these auditers are doing and ignor them don't give them content, I do gringe with some of their audits, Im also disappointed with some of the police responses.
I get the feeling that a lot of “auditors” are or have been involved in criminality and have a vendetta for that reason, police are a threat to their livelihoods. If they were really “auditing” police officers, they would be observing and taking notes from a distance rather than harassing and obstructing them. They’re also generally really thick, too thick to even realise how thick they sound.
Completey agree. A lot of them are those types of people.
Key word being “feeling”, we go off what we know not what we feel 🤣
@@willyburny3074 yes it is a feeling, but I'm also in the New Zealand Police, and can confirm that this sort of mindset of having a grudge against police is generally brought about by being brought up on the other side of the law as well.
@@lucavangorkom9453 Absolutely! Now there are some bad apples in all police forces, my brother fell victim to one, the guy was nuts. We were parked up at a small car meet, all engines off and minding our own business and he came over all guns blazing. My brother tried to question his aggression and explain that we’d leave peacefully if we’re given the chance… that got him his face planted in his car bonnet, cuffed and dragged along by the cuffs whilst off his feet… what he hadn’t banked on, was that one of the members of our car club was a police officer himself, his father also a senior officer, it didn’t go down well for him.
Well said. Hate the lonely, annoying creeps that are just there to stop people working.
There's also a YT channel called (UK meet the tyrants) he is one of they most stupidest ppl alive, he goes to a crash site (rtc) and put cameras in the victims face whilst upset and the police were tryna help the victim and the guy filming was freaking out at the police 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Mate he’s a pedophile and a disgrace. 55 years old, age most men are grandfathers and he acts like that
Isn't he the one who turns the comments off and just acts like a total dick?
In my experience the British legal system works, as long as you're not a knob. On 3 separate occasions I've been summoned to court after been charged with iffy/made up vehicle related violations (basically the copper decided it looked illegal so it must be illegal). I was still polite to the officers involved, then went to court and proved that I wasn't doing anything wrong and so was let off. Me and/or a auditor screaming in their face that I knew the officers were in the wrong from the start would just have escalated the situation and more likely the outcome would be different.
lmao let me guess you a white British national
@@rjvtechnologies people with your attitude mouth off to the police and then are surprised when they get shit for it 😭
@@AS-ri1mb mouth off is not unlawful as is not not collaborating with the police, you just agreed police use their position to quote & quote teach a lesson which has nothing to do with the law only just because citizens did not had a subservience attitude towards them as if citizens were their personal slaves, there to serve the police in any request, 99.99% of police officers are crooks
@@rjvtechnologies let me guess you're a racist whining child ?
It is really simple but you don't seem to understand it. Retirement hasn't seemed to dull your one eyed perspective.
Auditors exercise their civil rights and push the boundaries to get a reaction. The real problem is that the Police and security staff seem to not be aware of the law relating to public and private space. The level of ignorance is frankly shocking. Instead what we often see is that they tend to make up the law or bend the law to intimidate and persecute these auditors. making up their own version of what the law is seems to be a common thread.
If the Police and security staff understood the law relating to private property and public space, and, behaved professionally then there would be almost no interest in auditing videos.
Auditing videos have really exposed a lot about current Policing standards and behaviour.
I’ll explain it…….Auditors are dicks 😂😂😂 and I can’t actually believe you took time out of your day to write a boring comment to try and justify yourself and their actions 🤦🏻♂️😂😂😂😂
@@BenPearson1965 The fact is that auditors have exposed the unprofessionalism of Police and security staff. this is the isue, not the behaviour of the auditors themselves. Of course some people such as yourself can't handle the reality of that. Time and again the Police are seen to have poor understanding of the law and how to handle situations.
I commented because I watched a few of these videos and I was absolutely shocked to see the incompetence. So when I see ex coppers trying to suppress reality then I am quite happy to type a few words.
Auditors are criminals with CRO numbers, halfwits with cameras…….and again…you’ve taken time from your life to reply on my page…..with a stupid comment………😂😂😂😂😂
@@BenPearson1965 "Auditors are criminals". Sorry but that is wrong from a number of standpoints, both legal and moral. i.e. for example, it is essentially not illegal to film police buildings, nor events in the public environment. Additionally to make sweeping generalisations, when factually incorrect, is prejudice.
Unfortunately this is exactly the viewpoint that many Police in these audit videos seem to have and what seems to lead them into too frequently mishandling situations.
And now you’re officially boring and no one but you cares 😂😂😂😂😂
Well said , there’s a police conduct authority for a reason, if you want to “audit police” go and work for the appropriate agents 🤦🏻♂️😂 … I had a crap Big Mac meal once .. still smash a McDonalds now and again!!? 😂
Police conduct authority ran by their mates 😂
I’m in total agreement……a complete waste of time, go and get a proper job. At least have some respect for those who are doing an amazing job especially in these difficult times we are living in.
Do you know how many police this year that has been fired and imprisoned for rape and even murder. Did you know how many good police officers back up a bad officer as not to lose their job?
You have no idea at all how bad this world has got because of bad police officers.
You are ignorant....
I see bens points but if someone wants to stand around and film its okay to do so as long as they don't get in the way.
The only police who have a problem with a camera are corrupt ones!
also, you say they are there to get a reaction but 9/10 times the police come to them and start being rude, they just filming for interest and when the police behave badly he can show that, nothing wrong with it!
Maybe retrain the police so they know what they are doing then the officers wont keep making themselves look fools time and time again
Exactly I ignore audits videos as most are edited to give a certain opinion
body cam footage has and always will have "corruption" issues or another reason why it can't be stored properly and given out upon request
BS
@@AS-ri1mb how is it bs bud I have a few times iv asked for body cam footage from them telling me they were recording then upon request they tell you it dost exist what experience do you have?
I think auditors just try to annoy police officers and any sort of authority to try and wind them up to get a reaction to then report them. They need to get a life
But if a police officer gets 'wound up' by an auditor, surely they're not cut out for the profession?
I think auditors expose corruption and abuse of powers 🎉
@@thebatman4279 Police officers are humans too, though. People just like you doing their best to uphold the law and serve the community. They aren't Gods, you're expecting too much. Just humans trying to maintain order and make the world a better place, ideally.
Most auditors don't approach anyone, or speak to anyone, so that's your POV proven wrong. You just don't get it do you.
@@cstrongmanops enforce law on others, auditors collect evidence so that the court can enforce laws on cops.
Ben your amazing coming thru your struggle with mental health and helping others also massive respect for your police work we will never fully understand just what you see on a day to day basis. I've massive respect for the police.. I can fully understand why you left your suitcase was bursting.. Thank you for highlighting mental health
Like you say not all policeman are bad ,just like not all auditors are bad , seems to me you watch a lot of them enough to make comments on them , people also like to see the other side of policing you don't get to see
No policemen should be bad. That’s the point 😂
I would love to see a venn diagram of auditors, virgins, and in-cells, I'm sure that would be a massive overlap.
It would just be a single circle.
If you added in "neckbeards" and "their mum was/is a junkie", it would still be a single circle.
😆. 👍
Add “wankers”-yep still full circle
I find Autitors very anarcist like. The trouble is, im willing to bet that if they lived in an area of the world where there is no police or even next to no police, they would hate it. Louis Theroux did a documentary in South Africa where crime is just so rife and the police are so stretched far and thin that you calling SA's version of 999 was just no use. The crimes commited are unspeakable too even with children being involved. If thats the sort of world auditors wish to live in where they don't want to respect the police and abolish them in some form or another then thats the world they will bring upon theirselves. We have the police for a reason and i certainly do not want to be in a country where there isn't any law and order.
Love your stuff Ben cheers for your service!
Respect had to be given first, most police officers treat the public with little or no respect
That's a lie. respect is earned. Also, if we allow people to continue to take advantage of the First Amendment, why have police at all. They have a job to protect, not deal with idiots.
I agree with you, your at work, but, a lot of Police THESE days think that they are not people, but the Police and you HAVE to do as your told, we dont, we have to go about our business in a lawful manner
well said and well done. These auditors turned up at a place where I used to work, filming cars, putting families and countless lives at risk. Several of the cars had to be resold at the owners cost. I was shocked to see some auditors getting arrested inside a police station, the desk Sgt waited for them to come inside and mouth off, he arrested them all for causing a nuisance inside a police station a little known law. They are like the church in America which gathers outside police funerals and serviceman funerals with homophobic placards. Knowing full well if arrested they can sue for money, So no one can touch them. Watching 3 Bobbies getting tied up with one auditor outside a police station for an hour is infuriating. MOP do not like police stations, they are scared of them, and if reporting a crime or a serious offence seeing auditors gathering outside means that they can not report as IP out of fear or embarrassment. A local town I know if you are from a certain area if you are seen entering a police station you and your family will get rough treatment from the estate. On one video at a establishment a Trojan was parked on the side of a road whilst auditors were outside the Trojan team would have been easily compromised. If had not been for a security guard deliberately winding up the auditors and leading them away. Police need to be audited but by professionals, who know the law, understand the law and act like real MOP covertly.......oh hang on they are! Breach of Police, First responders and Military private vehicles and housing needs to be covered by law. Including forfeiture of image gathering equipment and disposal immediately, and a register formed. I too have left due to PTSD and love what you do Ben, one day we will catch up.
Why Ben do you bother to reason with such people, why don’t you just ignore them like the rest of us? :)

Miles better than last vid I agree with you now, police need auditing but so do most auditors they are getting silly and subscriber happy now. No need for the drone at all
Auditors enjoy rattling the cage and kicking the bee hive. They're not there to "audit" anything, they're there to inflame, push boundaries - they lurk in this vague, grey area in that they behave suspiciously enough to draw attention, but aren't forthcoming to relieve all suspicion from officers. They know that loitering around a police station, filming, is going to be queried, but instead of using that as a means of discussing and reinforcing to police that they have a right to film in public (which they do), it is merely a catalyst - a spark that is used to light the powder keg of arrogant, entitled and misplaced aggression. It is pathetic.
This is like me going to fire station with a petrol can and a lighter and acting outraged when they challenge why I'm doing it. I cannot stand these absolute no-lifers with a chip on their shoulder, who have nothing better to do than waste everyone's time for absolutely no sensible reason whatsoever.
Well said 🤙
One if the best comments on here, well said👍
Auditors are generally wasting their own time, of course there are some officers that are corrupt of course there is, but there is only one motivation for many of these auditors and that's ££££ and internet fame as it gives them the attention they never received as a child...
We got a speed limit on the m1 because of someone being a nub. Asking questions if being harassed by the police, fair enough, but unfortunately loss of mutual respect will just command more laws and restrictions… ending in totalitarianism…. 😉
So all auditors are the same - I think you're essentially saying they are all bad but all cops should be treated as individuals?
Great video, and so well put! ❤❤❤
Oh Ben such lovely people who in no way endanger officers and general public they just so higher than any Bobby 👮🏻♂️ massive respect too them just wish I could become one as too much free time LOL
You couldn’t put that any better..
Great video / work keep it up 👍
2:23 says it all
Top notch content as per keep it up
Ben Pearson, please read mean tweets you're laugh is infectious
1:10 spot on. I’ve never seen an auditor do this, it’s always the police who approach them, often in an aggressive manner.
Any ‘auditor’ who does what you described is a nob i think.
you have to admit there are some very unethical auditors out there, some idiots, and some morons making auditors look terrible. Good auditors should be calling them out.
Cant believe they even get a title of Auditors lol!
Self-appointed of course . Self-aggrandising losers.
Thanks Ben much love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I found this video by googling “auditors are the biggest bellends on the planet” 😂😂
I have so much respect for Ben! And for these auditors! You try being a police officer! I am not and yes those officers who take advantage etc they should be held accountable but when you risk the families of the officer and interfere with things that you have no idea about you have no idea, how would they like it if someone filmed and questioned everything you did.
Stephen Lawrence's family understand perfectly - I'm not sure the police are the victims.
The police can't restrain people without hurting or murdering them - I'm happy to post a clip. And they can't deal with people without becoming butt hurt and they certainly can't fight - during the London riots the police simply back off and let people smash up the place - after they caused the riot. It was the same in the 80s in the Tottenham riots - do you know how many police I personally saw come out of the police station - 0
So never mind the you don't know what it's like to be an police officer - I've stopped muggings without backup - without a batman utility belt bursting with weapons and against armed assailants - or is it the paperwork you're intimidated by.
Spot On,
Get a job ha.
If they are so clever they would have high flying jobs.
Plus why do they all hid there faces
As with any authority there is good and bad with out the police we would not be safe if your living your life correctly then you’ve got no problems. Respect costs nothing but no matter what you do with some people you can not win

Do a reaction of some well known auditor videos
Auditors..? Aren't they the blokes in suits who come round and check your company books..?
It's trending
Thank you for serving the crown and mentioning it it's greatly appreciated.
Most Auditors are respectful though, there's only a minority that go out looking for trouble. Since watching their videos it's scary how many police are actually out there to abuse their powers.
Auditors only chose the easy targets. For example they wouldn't go to a travellers camp and film because they know that they would be beat to a pulp. They always choose the easy targets that they know that they are save around. Shame they don't all use their free time in making their local community a cleaner safer place. For example organising a little pick etc.
It’s usually people in uniform mate because they know they can say what they want and employees don’t wanna lose a job
Thing is Ben your listing a bunch of different things that "COULD" have happened but just like when a officer is trying to find a law me or anyone as the public as a "potential" risk or crime committed 🤔
What are you on about
@@bensennitt8743 "potentially committed a crime"
As in when the table is reversed it doesn't feel so nice does it and this is what coppers should know.
Treat like a criminal with every interaction with police that feeling of be worried.... Wayne cousins is a prime example of abuse of powers. We should assume all police are the same just like they assume we are all ciminals.
As my comments on your previous video on this subject got me abuse from these auditors I’m keeping my opinion brief! Full on respect Ben! About time someone had the balls to speak out about their methodology. Police do what they do and shy away from them, instead they should be doing what you do and highlight the issue. Keep the content coming Ben
I’ve had a long conversation with my wife about the Police Interceptors series that Ben was part of. Her opinion was that every instance of police “detaining suspects” were correct and that’s how it should be. She didn’t like it when I pointed out that on many occasions things were done incorrectly. She hated that I felt they were doing things wrong until I pointed out that actual criminals were getting away with their crimes because of incorrect procedure.
I think the majority of cops do a great job and respect to them. I’ve been arrested and pulled for traffic incidents and I gladly took the punishments because I knew I was wrong, so I don’t believe I’m biased.
Given the stuff Ben has been through in the course of his career I believe he is one of the good ones rather than being one of the bullies.
Spot on Ben. These folk do my tits in. I agree that they go these places knowing fine well it will cause people to ask why they are filming. Who in the f**k would want to film swimming pools, Shopping malls etc? Kinda creeps me out if the truth be told. Something Jimmy Saville about they kind of people.
Whilst I agree there are some places which I personally wouldn't want someone shoving a camera in my face, I wouldn't be 'creeped out' as you put it.
As for Savile types, well there are quite a few members of West Yorkshire police who met with the chap in question on a regular basis that should be best placed to answer that question.
Some of the auditors on RUclips are generally pleasant people pj and dj seem to be nicer auditor’s
They are proper auditors, anyone with a camera filing seems to be given that term these days when it’s not true.
@@WelshBMWandAudiDriver they get themselves in some hot water but know what they are doing and remain as polite and pleasant as possible
They are the more pleasant of the auditors but like all auditors they still break the law whilst auditing, trespass for one is one thing they do a lot of and even aggravated trespass at times.
I've not seen one auditor follow Article 10 correctly, even though they use it as an excuse for "their" rights.
As I stated in your last video I do not have a problem with auditors provided they do not break the law. You have highlighted incidents where you have seen Auditors being disrespectful to officers. You also have to comment where officers have abused their power. Their has been two most recent incidents where officers have abused Section 43. The NPCC set guidelines regarding auditors yet the officers ignore those guidelines. You as a former officer know full well that it is not illegal to film the Police provided you do not obstruct them during the course of their duties. It is also not illegal to film the back of a Police station or fly a drone ( provided their are no flying restrictions). In conclusion perhaps a better way for you give a balance opinion is to review some vids involving auditors and provide your views upon the officers actions.
Auditors are a pain in the arse
Well said 👏👏
The Police had a serious good wholesome purpose in the old days, a community bobby was on the street walking around the local community. He was known by everyone in the community. He lived in the community (he had nothing to fear from the community). We respected that bobby and he was approachable and would sort out issues for us. Now a community bobby does not live in the same area, they ride around in cars. I was approached by a female copper who claimed she had been the community bobby in our area for five years. Never seen her before, did not know who she was. She was warning me straight away that when my phone had been nicked by a smack head, I should have informed the police, instead of dealing with it myself. My reply to her was and I am sixty 'My parents taught me not to talk to strangers!' and I walked away from her. This is the issue nowadays the police are lazy, they love driving around in their metal fetish boxes and have contempt for the very people they are supposed to protect! In our community now, we don't have the police ever around, we deal with issues ourselves much more efficiently. They are not welcome. This is not our doing but theirs!
I had to deal with some off these auditors doing a A first Amendment audit on a supermarket here in the uk. What a bunch off 🛎🔚s
We don’t use the American Constitution in the UK.
Most of them are professional losers. Get a real job and leave people to get on with their lives. They want to create trouble for the camera.
Totally agree Ben. Ive had a few of these appear in my YT feed and most of them are deliberately trying to aggravate the situation and the people ive seen come across as total tossers.
Hi Ben how do you feel when let’s say an auditor or general member of the public exposes an officers behaviour as wrong and aggressive yet his colleagues stand around silently and do not challenge their behaviour when they’re in the wrong?
He’s just said he thinks police that are doing their job wrong should be dealt with. Stop trying to score points mate.
@@liam77877 That doesn’t directly answer my question as to why officers aren’t challenging their colleagues behaviour when they’re clearly not acting professionally when dealing with an altercation they just stand around and say nothing when one of them is in the wrong
@@Gunners3991 Yeah I'm sure Ben would agree colleagues should step in. It's common sense. Just like I would.

It's only the bad footage that gets the views and onto your feed. There's a real world outside of social media. We have one of the best Police Forces in the world. Our cops are underfunded, understaffed and yet they work their socks off. I will stand by that until my grave.
@@liam77877 don’t get me wrong there’s a lot that do cracking job that don’t get the recognition they deserve. But I wouldn’t go as far as saying we have the best police force just look at everything regarding the MET.

@@Gunners3991 You have compared an Asda worker, someone who's job it is to stack shelves and tell people where the custard cream isle is, with an officer who's job it is to stop knife crime, terrorism, burglary and so on. Nice one.
I always thought an Audit was done by a professional department for example quality or health or safety who report back to the HSE or relevant quality department. What confuses me is who's the governing body for the Auditers?
I've asked a good few auditors why they don't do the same say at travellers sites and out busy bars as they try to wind people up. Personally I'd pay good money to see them attempt this and enjoy the results.
Definitely mate, would pay to watch them get smashed to bits... 🤣🤣🤣
Do you ask police officers why they don't go to traveller's camps and busy bars without batons, pepper spray, tasers and ten other officers standing behind them.
Yes that's because they would get killed and they are Cowards
Quality as usual 😅👍🏼
Agree fully with you esp re get a proper job, shame they earn a living off this. Never minded auditors at first but then just became more and more stuid, anything for likes and money it seems! Stay safe.
I can't stand this whole auditing everything culture personally. If you follow someone for long enough they'll blow a red light - if you audit a police officer for long enough they'll do something wrong! law of averages. You screw up sometimes? no? should we come audit you, yer mam and everyone on the planet just in case a minor infraction occurs? no. Remember also that we all come to work with a bit of a bad attitude every now and then, police officers are still humans and have their bad days like we all do, they still remain on the whole more professional than most fields when this happens though. You wouldn't like someone at your work shoving a camera in your face to try and catch you out on something and then broadcast it to the world when you do, would you? Exactly, let the police get on with it.
Yes,fantastic video
Agree 100% Ben, alot say really bad things about people from the US, i always say look dont group me in with that, i am my own person, regardless of how i feel about being born here (and for the record if i had my way i would have been born in the UK) and what other people do from the us, im my own person, i treat people like i would want to be treated, from everything that i have ever seen or heard you are so respectful to everyone, you were one of the nicest coppers i have ever seen honestly,
If I approach someone... anyone and start "giving them the piss" I'd expect to get a fat lip. Glorious video Mr Pearson, on a side note lets have a bit of CROWN IMMUNITY.
The way you laughed after reading out “if you told me to F off I’d headbutt you and do you in” 😂👌 class video as always Ben
I just want to say thank you for your service, am halfway through your hotel Tango 23 book. It's brought a tear to my eye and its the first book I have read in over 10years. I have actually ordered your other book.
Keep up the great vlogs. Folk are great at tying hate but most are positive.
One thing I will never understand how u can get locked up for say 5years but get out on good behaviour it's like mmm. What's ur views Ben sorry if you have covered this xx
@Mike Morris ???
Well balanced view as always. Keep up the good work and content Ben.
Auditors are 100% people who tried and couldn’t get into the police 😂
Agreed😂
Completely agree with you Ben.
auditors are a pain its not just police it's steel works act it's just getting a reaction from security ect to earn money from you tube
Ben As I said in the last video, you are a sound ex cop but I agree with auditors (ones that are respectful).
I take back my very first comment i ever put on 1 of your first videos. It was a totally different officer 😅. Your a decent fella an realistic about what you see in front of you.
Your looking well compared to when you first started. Good to see people can get the help the brain needs to over come ect trauma. What your doing seems to work for you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Ben, love the content... Massive respect for everything you've done in the police and what you do now. Unfortunately what I fear you may be doing is exactly what they want... Attention. That's all they're after. Mindless knob heads without a days work in them craving for decent people's attention. Don't give them any more. Respect.
I can't stand the auditors, they try and push people into arguments in the hope of a law suit
I don't like the police but auditors a still very annoying
A lot of the auditor videos I've seen are no more than stupid arguments from people looking to make a dollar. Some highlight the dreadful behaviour of the police toward the public. Both times I have had interactions of the police, they have been rude and disrespectful towards me because I asserted my rights in a firm but polite manner. It really does make me feel aggrieved when I see police blatantly breaking, normally petty, laws that everyone has to abide by. So, in my opinion, some police are professional and so are some auditors.
The majority of auditors that I've watched here on YT have little to no self respect, common sense and manners.
I think while photographers/journalists have a right to record Police Officers etc in public, the law needs changed to make it an offence to film/photograph Police Stations/Buildings, Military Bases, Sensitive sites etc.
Surely if a site is sensitive as long as you promise not to shout at it or say nasty things about it then everything is OK?
