BIG BAD police
Discussion
I know where you're coming from James. TVP have a no pursuit policy for 'peds/bikes/quads. I'd quite happily fit bull bars to the cars and ram them (my opinion and NOT my employers who would go
if they saw this).
As the saying goes - you drive too quickly for those who don't need you and too slowly for those who do. The job is now social services with cuffs and when asked what my job is I reply "garbage collector"

If you are TVP, you will also be marriage guidance counsel and baby sitter too for all the hormonal 15 year old mispers that can't live with their single parent!

Recently spoke to a teacher at an inner-city Salford (Manchester) school who was off work with depression. He initially said his occupation was "Youth Corrections"

You both sound like you work on my area!
James and Gary
Don't be so dishartened chaps there are some of us out here who really do appreciate and understand your jobs.Especially the frustrations of red tape.
We were working in a less than nice area of whitely in Reading today and commented to Mrs xl that i could not police this area because i would wind up killing one of the fecktarded indivduals that are social rejects in that area.
And i'm totally aware that this is now becoming a national problem, not helped by the namby bureaucratic sh1t that is placed down to apease the whingers. Bring back proper policing is what i say.
But you chaps do your job to make us feel safe and have to say the return of Daves P&J is testomony to that.
Guess what i'm saying is chin up you are making the difference and do a job i wouldn't!!

It doesn't sound very balanced to me, I would have to disagree with your use of the word "often", often, suggests to me more than 50%,either you are in the wrong job or just having a bad day.You know what to do if you don't like it.
Nuff said.
I think a lot is down to the demoralisation of the police and the general catering and glorifying of the thick in Britain. The same policies which have brought teaching to its knees, for example.
By that I mean we all watch 'Police! Stop' and see the police chase some idiot through towns, loads of cars getting damaged, sometimes worse.
Then we hear at the end of the programme the idiot was sent to the Bahamas for 'punishment', the car owners left to pay for all damages.
So the public loses ( has lost ) all faith. I for one cannot grasp why the police still chase those they KNOW are in the above group ( for example, know their address), or when they have the helicopter on them.
Simply, for all of us as a society now, it just ain't worth it.
But the vicious circle continues. The glorification of the thick also means the police have to accept many applicants who are, frankly, crap at the job. If you start promoting people of the basis of minority group membership alone, you ensure the standards will fall. A thick manager will tend to ensure all new staff are thicker than he.
All of our public sector suffers from this, although we are slowly realising how bad things have become. I hope...
The police are not as respected as they used to be, and this is such a pity for the hard working, caring coppers out there.
Many years ago you had the image that every copper was tall, fit and well educated. You did not naturally, as know, question any mistakes. They were deemed errors, not mistakes.
Now, when you see a cop car flying past you at 200 mph for no apparent reason, undertaking and slalom driving at will, you wonder if this is another clown given a badge for no other reason than he/she is a clown.
And sending a 5ft lad accompanied by two 4ft 8 female coppers to pubs to break up fights....come on!!
Sorry.

I don't leave the office - made that mistake once. ST out.In general, the public hasn't the faintest clue what the police actually spend their time doing at the behest of our dear old Home Office, nor how far removed it really is from The Bill etc.
Anyone who hasn't already done so really should read this blog from the start, or buy the book (clicky)
To all the BiB and GiB on here - thank you
You do a job that I would not be prepared to.
