    Princess of Wales - Cancer diagnosis

    We live in a society where the norm is to expect to know everything about everyone, regardless. Right to privacy in such a role is hard, but several quarters lynched them for exercising this. I wish her well, especially for the support and mental health of their children. I lost my dad to...

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    ‘Police and other emergency services’ say the labels… the article is well worth reading in full. ’The IOPC said its investigations had shown the need for “clear, well-communicated guidance for police” that helped them identify cases where medical intervention was urgent and restraint posed a...

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    I’ve not watched that. Too many policing series are too way off the mark for me. I did do consultancy after leaving service, so my CPD isn’t too out of date. Procedurally most British cop drama’s are way off, in this regard. FWIW my skill set was wide, including discipline, HR, PACE, public...

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    Fully appreciate your point. I have been left for 8 1/2 years, now, but my recollection (and from my conversations with ex-colleagues) is procedures have been noticeably freed up. Indeed, I recall in my time as a supervisor several cases being fast tracked - none of which made the...

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    My experience of working amongst NHS management is not as fondly remembered. But this is a police corruption and crap performance thread, so I’ll stay on topic. FWIW I had a similar reputation when dealing with misconduct matters, not that that will mean anything.

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    A news trawl would reveal lots of workplaces where the standards of professional conduct is very inconsistent. But that’s not the point either. This is a police corruption thread, as it’s been pointed out to me previously,. ;)

    Dune 2, IMAX Mansfield. Epic sound, and visuals - if that’s your bag. Narrative pretty good, too.

    Bob Marley - One Love, at the Odeon, Mansfield this evening. If you are a fan of his, then imv an essential watch. An added bonus was Natural Mystic thru the cinemas surround system ;)

    To pay off or not to pay off- that is the question

    I don't know enough about this kind of thing (that is what a good financial adviser is for), but I paid off my mortgage in 2015 and have not regretted it.

    Steve Wright (in the afternoon) has died

    After leaving the police, I did some consultancy training, which took me to various forces. My most recent memory is listening to his pm shows when traveling back from Leicester, and Northampton. Light, easy listening with some decent music played was ideal. I also listened to him on R1. Very...

    What concert have you last been to #3

    Wednesday 7/2/24 - ABC at Nottm Royal Concert Hall. Very good gig, indeed. The orchestra made it, for me.

    Is the Metropolitan Police institutionally corrupt?

    Intel gathering on any level has long been controversial, regardless of the category it is gathered for. You have the extremes of, on the one side, gathering 'everything' so you can create the broadest picture and, on the other, gathering the least so as not impinge on civil liberty. When...
