When police won’t respond to a burglary or street robbery but respond to things posted on social media it says it all really, therefore if something happens I won’t bother with the police I’ll take the law into my own hands and deal with things how I see fit and I’m perfectly fine with dealing with whatever consequences
Half a billion pounds, where is that cash coming from, as a retired Police Officer, 1971 to 2001, the rot set in years ago, around 1986, the Met ( some clownish senior officer) decided that officers who had served at a station for more than 10 years, had to be moved elsewhere. So all that knowledge of an area, its villains, its geography, its nature and who did what to whom, was lost, then interchange, where experienced CID officers were moved to uniform and vice versa. All that expertise was lost. When the Met Police were a force, it dealt with everything, lost and found property, keyholders, missing persons, traffic accidents, the list was endless. A police station in every town. It was refuge, now sadly long gone. Home Beats, where officers knew their patch, all long gone. 43 Police forces, all doing their own thing. Procurement, some years ago a major car company offered to build a purpose built police car, but the Met said No., so they managed on a range of sub standard vehicles. Whoever, over the years, these idiots were, who made these decisions , they were not Police Officers. So finally it is no surprise to me that the "Police Service" is in a huge mess, as is the judicial system . Will it change with this injection of cash, not a chance
The tories got rid of 20,000 officers with many many years of experience...replaced with new coppers and plastic hobbies on half there wages.. that's the tories for u
Here we go again, Ministers with no common sense taking a strategic view only. Policing will only change if we have more officers in the profession. Right now, we have too many leaving, a Justice System in chaos, poor sentencing, the Police trying to please everybody, laws, rules and regs tying their hands behind their backs, when criminals don't play to any rules. The whole system is weighted against the Police by the 'woke' agenda, DEI, bureaucracy, complex laws poorly worded that do not help Policing, complex file preparation requirements, CPS not fit for purpose, the Courts permitting far too many adjournments, taking cases over a year to trial, yet the police get the blame for those failings.
You cannot blame the Labour party for the present pitiful state of our police as they have just taken office but they also cannot deny that there needs to be a radical shake up and the force needs to return to doing what it is supposed to and that is fight crime with a lot lot less political interference. They also simply cannot deny that there is a 2 tier system in the police and the justice systems and frankly anyone who claims otherwise is an absolute lost cause
I've still not heard anything back from the police after a toddler pushed my toddler over at nursery......can someone tell this minister what she's going to do about it

It varies a bit across the country, my local police force is quite good, but some of them need to be in special measures.
The irony is even if the police did double their arrest and charge rate there's nowhere to put them all.
Lost all respect for the police when they took the knee and ran away
What a disgusting government.
She's been Chairperson of the Select Cttee on policing for years but only asking Qs now ?
My family NEVER call the police. I never understood why until i got older and realised that police aren't there to help you.
So a way to employ even more civil servants at enormous cost and no output.........
There's no point if they aren't trained properly in the first place.

Another shameful labour mp

Who to listen too..tax experts saying 500 affected..or tory mps media saying 10s of thousands...i will go.with experts
If she doesn't understand then she will never understand. That makes her unfit for office. The last Govt was awful. This Govt is far worse.
Is there any possibility that a labour MP can ever do an interview without mentioning a black hole. Do your job and stop being a paid victim.
Speak up unless you don't like what people say. Just resign all of you
You’ve got more MPs in rural areas because you lied to them those same MPs should be very worried about their jobs come next election.
Ahh, the old 'difficult choices' and '£22bn black hole' no one can justify....
'non hate crime incident'....isnt that just a non incident ???
These 0eople agree with it. We are doomed
I don’t think the general public have any confidence in policing standards currently. Very much a two tier policy.
Not just policing but the CPS too.
Your more likely to see the loch Ness than a police officer nowadays
You mean not being two tier
Freedom of speech as long as it’s speech Labour Party agree on..🤬 otherwise you’ll have keir stalins jack booted police kicking your door in..😂
So you are hiring more quangos with the winter fuel paymnet 😮
THE CRIME IS ==== YOU=== IN THE COUNTRYSIDE.
Anybody help me I'm finding job
hope it works ax
She is hopeless.
