Box11 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 You know I have a very good friend who used to work as a bouncer years ago at very dangerous pubs and nightclubs across Uk... He told me that he was invited to attercliffe police station in Sheffield for a meeting because he wanted to become the pub manager at a pub on the Manor.... As the meeting took place the high ranking police officer asked him we see your car outside these unsavoury pubs and clubs but they never request police to attend how do you do it he turned round and said.... "I make sure everyone can see me constantly".... In short the police need to get back to walking the beat and to be visible at all times !!!!.....

pintor Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Hopefully they'll start in places like Rotherham, Rochdale etc, police know what's going on in these places and still don't act! Edited March 20, 2021 by pintor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give over. If they went after the real leaders of it all the commanders would be exposed. How many peados have been given a slapped wrist by one particular judge in South Yorkshire recently. Yet no-one at SYP or the CPS thinks this suspicious.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister M Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 On 17/03/2021 at 07:50, Mister M said: My concerns about this proposal are that men who want to attack women using fake police IDs to secure the confidence of women who are vulnerable into attacking them. Also the police themselves hardly have a sparkling record when it comes to covert undercover operations; i.e. infiltrating various groups who are perceived as 'threats' (whatever they are); forming relationships with them under false presences, impregnating them then moving on, leaving the women and babies with no idea who they are. This idea of undercover police to patrol streets just hasn't been thought through I don't think.

And I doubt cop cars will be done away with entirely. I find this regularly made demand by people for "bringing back more patrols on the streets" to be a complete false sense of security and waste of resource. I suspect this is a quick fix decision to easily appease the shouty brigade and opposition MPs. Even with a costly huge increase in officer numbers the chance of a plod being at the exact time and the exact location to directly observe and intervene in a crime taking place, is extremely slim. In any event, despite some obvious recent events and isolated incidents the ONS statistics for last year shows that 'traditionally crimes' such as sexual assault, mugging, theft, criminal damage and possession of weapons were all in decline with some even dropping significantly. On the flip side, drugs offences, public disorder, monetary fraud and computer misuse offences were all rising if not significantly increasing. Of course lockdown will give some obvious explanation however there is no chance of this ever going backwards now. Cybercrime has been on the increase for years and now is really breaking out into the public consciousness. Such types of offences are not resolved by police officers aimlessly wandering the streets. It is through police officers undertaking intelligence, data analysis, cracking encryption, CCTV and sourced footage, undercover ops and other more sophisticated techniques. Of course there will still be need for some level of visible policing particularly in vulnerable areas such as transport hubs or for specific purposes such as large crown gatherings or the usual drunken Friday and Saturday nights. However, there is no doubt that criminals have evolved and the police must evolve with them. The twee black and white days of Dixon of Dock Green are long gone.
