    Very interesting video, thank you. What's the reasoning behind the shift pattern it seems absolutely nuts. And what is the hourly pay rate?

      @@ephphatha230 You’re welcome! It is absolutely nuts, and it can vary slightly around the country but that is pretty standard for response. The reasoning behind it is because it’s a 24hr service, and I highly doubt that there would be enough volunteers for the night shifts, so everyone gets an equal split! As for hourly rate, it’s a 40hr week, so starting out I guess around £14.50, and £23ish for the top of the pay scale.

    Great video, very interesting. I could not do it personally, I comend anyone who can. The current criticism of policing in general is a real shame and I'd like your thoughts.
    The buzzword of the moment is 'two tier' of course, I'd like to know your experiences and thoughts of NCHI in particular.

      @@mark77woody Thank you, I hope you realise your other comment is a bit far off the mark… Non crime hate incidents? Hmm, that was more the remit of the neighbourhood police team, but what in particular are you interested in?

      @ModernUK-c1c well assuming I'm not talking to a robot now😆. It seems the police can be weaponised against someone if a person doesn't agree with an opinion. For example the journalist Allison Pearson having two officers show up on her doorstep over a tweet a year previous. The complainant was automatically referred to as the 'victim'. It's all very odd. I just want to hear your take on it?

      It’s honestly something I never really dealt with in response or in investigations and the first I heard of that incident. I suppose that maybe this type of stuff is happening to ease community relations, which as mentioned neighbourhood policing teams deal with a lot. For example, whenever there was a racial element to an actual crime, I’d fill in what we called a HARA form, which covers this side of things. A neighbourhood police officer would then go and visit the subject and chat about the racial side of things.
      I think there was value to that, but if there is no crime in the first place, I have no bloody clue why we would be wasting the little resources we have to chase it up. Political correctness gone made I suppose?
