      @@sim9373 put it this way, the only reason I am still alive is I put my car into the garage because it was making a strange whooshing noise. Only to have the phone ringing as I approach the office as I’d walked as the garage was close by. The garage insisted I come back. When I arrived the police were already there. “Someone” had slashed all four inner tire walls from the inside edge of the alloy wheel right to the ground. The noise I was hearing when I was driving on the motorway was the noise the slashes were making as they passed by the air. Had I needed to stop fast, the tires would have blown out & Id have been killed, as would my daughter who was of nursery school age at the time. That is just one incident of many that happed over the two decades he stalked me. So I’ll leave you to decide if I was hysterical or not? BTW it was the garage who called the police not me as I’d learned not to bother them by that point.

      It should be obvious to everyone that a person who is capable of this should not be responsible for enforcing the law or protecting the vulnerable. There is no reformation of a police culture that disagrees with this; it can only be dismantled & redesigned from scratch.

    This piece of work was recruited six months after Sarah Everard.
    A former Metropolitan Police officer convicted of multiple counts of rape told one of his victims she wouldn’t be believed because he was in the force.
    Cliff Mitchell, 24, of Putney was found guilty of ten counts of rape, three counts of rape of a child under 13, one count of kidnap and breach of a non-molestation order following a trial at Croydon Crown Court on Wednesday, 21 February.
    He was a serving PC in Hounslow when a number of the offences were committed, with Police saying the child rapist commited "brazen abuse of power."
    Cliff Mitchell started his officer training in August 2021. That was after the Met decided to take no further action against him for allegations of rape in 2017.

      Same reason as Wayne Cousins, Police have been routinely cut to the point that many reliefs are routinely understaffed over the past 15 years (and it had not long stopped being cut before that), resulting in a sudden and necessary increase in officers (20,000 officers are needed), so they inevitably overlook vetting.

    • @adenwellsmith6908
      @adenwellsmith6908 Před 2 měsíci +4

      I disagree. In the Met there are 35,000 officers
      There are 12 Basic Command units.
      Each BCU has pro rata, 2,900 officers.
      If you take mine, there are 25 front line officers on duty at any one point.
      Three shifts, 75 a day.
      Lets be generous and double that to cover holidays, training, sickness and injury. That's 150.
      So what are the other 2,750 doing? That's the core issue.
      In this case DEI is certainly a factor. He was hired on a quota and they looked the other way.

      That vigil was extremely complex because lockdown was underway at the time and police were being pressured to crack down on protests by Just Stop Oil, which resulted in a message from Government that the vigil was unlawful, the government later said this was not the case but nothing in the law nor guidance provided a defence for protest, it was just a post hoc decision based on what unfolded.

    All the reviews in the World will not truly address the problem of recruitment in the police. It is my understanding that recruitment interviews are now carried out by civilians, when it used to be an ACPO officer flanked by two Superintendents!! An indication of how remote senior officers have become in the whole process.
    Austerity took away 20,000 officers through natural wastage. It is inevitable that a stretched workforce is going to act less effectively as a result. Only to replace the number further down the line with inexperienced officers.
    Standards have been eroding for a long time. Police must not be pressured into increasing numbers by politicians, even if not one interviewee were accepted in a week. Be led by quality, not targets.

    I think anyone knows including wives of men who are watching hardcore porn, should be reported to the police too. Enabing this behaviour is part of the problem. How come the wife stayed with him and had kids possibly knowing he is into hard core porn, how does he hide that at home?

    Overall crime detection rates in 22/23 are less than 6% falling continuously from 16% in 2015, meaning nearly all crime has gone undetected for many years, which when you consider that includes such low hanging fruit as traffic offenses, shows police are effectively pointless. Many forces are in special measures due to their incompetence and yet taxpayers pay £18 billion per year for this redundant group of wasters, many of which are employed though possessing a criminal record, due to slackening of policy to increase recruitment numbers.

    • @PCDelorian
      @PCDelorian Před 2 měsíci +1

      The numbers you use are the exact reason why those increased recruitment numbers are needed, police are extremely understaffed and are now having a mass recruitment (again) which will continue until the police make an impact on the crime rate, when they will be reduced because its no longer politically popular to fund them, resulting in mass redundancies and failing to recruit for vacancies until they again need a mass recruitment, meanwhile the sudden and large need of officers will undoubtedly mean looking the other way as politicians put pressure of police to meet Home Office targets so they look good at the next General Election. A few Wayne Cousins-es fall through the cracks and who in government cares. It also does not include traffic offences since they aren't considered for the purpose of police stats and if they were would significantly reduce the detection rate since a lot of people drive around with illegal tints, illegal number plates, speed, fail to stop at amber lights, drive without due care by failing to give way to pedestrians attempting to cross at a crossing, none of which the police will investigate and half the time won't pull you for if they see you do it.

      @@PCDelorian Home Office data also doesn't include fraud and online crime, so even if your your point about traffic offenses is correct, which I don't believe it is, the situation is far worse than reported. In any case you're missing the point. HO data shows that police have had little impact on crime since before 2015, yet the UK hasn't degenerated into a crime riddled dystopia, indicating that police are no longer needed. With many forces in special measures, multiple damning reports and the overwhelming body of online video evidence expose a significant number of officers as untrustworthy, incompetent and corrupt. So your "a few... falling through the cracks" argument isn't supported by the evidence.

      @@user-vq7cb8fx9g So firstly police don't need to solve crime to deter it, secondly when police accountability has been suppressed for decades a lot will be found at once if you start looking for them. If you have an alternative suggestion I'm up for some form of reform including abolishing and replacing bit policing started for a very good reason and the alternative is every man for himself.

      @@PCDelorian You're trying to convince the wrong person here. In my sixty years, every encounter I've had with police has been wholly negative. I'm a law abiding citizen never in trouble with the law, but even as a victim of crime I found police to be arrogant, lazy wasters who give the impression they are somehow special and not subject to the same law they are supposed to enforce. My experience tells me police cannot be trusted any more than criminals. There are many other proffessions now doing many of the functions police are supposed to do and I beleive that trend should continue as having a single role of constable with the full backing of the law is too prone to corruption to be of benefit to society. The role should be fragmented into separate disciplines with partial powers. At least then, such agents might actually have an understanding of the law they are supposed to uphold, unlike most officers today. I'm not against the idea of policing, it's that people cannot be trusted with the power society gives police officers who always end up abusing it. Such corruption is mitigated by breaking the role into separate distinct functions whose performance can be more easily assessed and adjusted.
