Panorama undercover in the police
Discussion
Jesus its just have a go at the police. Who can honestly say at their work they are good as gold. These guys and gals have one of THE most stressful job in the world.
Innapropriate things said yes, some things they shouldnt do yeah but its not like they are dealing with old doris down the road.
Thoughts. edited to add i ahve massive respect for the police and personally believe they should have more powers and less restrtaints on them.

k if a copper sticks a boot into a random knob head. What do we really want from our police personnel; no I’m mean what we really want.
I’d like to tell you, I‘d probably sacked on the first day in the job for kicking seven bells of ……. out of some scrote.
Reality, I’d probably sent home on sick leave for ……… myself, after stopping someone for a minor traffic infringement that escalated.
Now I doubt 5 GCSE’s Quinton/Penelope, with an interest in modern art, keen understanding of human right and over flowing empathy for the underprivileged are exactly queuing up to join.
What do we expect our police to like? I want them to be upholders of the law, preferably without prejudice who administer the law in a fair and equitable way.
However, considering what they face on a daily basis, that might be a big ask.

I posted this on another page but will drop it here too;
"Watched this on the news last night. Yes some pretty poor behaviour in some instances. I think what was also worrying is the police vetting process not knowing anything about the journalist they let in to the force.
I think officers exchanging views in the pub (always exaggerated behaviour and bravado in any walk of life) is largely unfair. Does it also paint a picture of the wider issue on immigration? We have enough of our own bad apples to deal with let alone allowing foreign bad apples in who these guys then have to deal with. Bear in mind many of these immigrants may have no English and come from cultures where violence is second nature. Would you deal with them by asking to "come along nicely sir" as you take them to the police station?
It was interesting how the next story was about yet another Pakistani rape gang...."
I did think it was odd when the transmission broke. Not seen that for a long time. We wondered if they had been hacked or a legal challenge relating to the programme had been made to pull it off air. Assume now it was simply a technical fault.
