Accuphase all the way down
Perhaps the public should wear body worn video cameras.
I'd certainly start recording on my phone if a copper came within 10 yards of me.
But they have the recordings, not you.Recording officers during day to day encounters has been common for the last 10 years or more.
I think Andrew means the public recording officers (ie on their phones) has become more common.But they have the recordings, not you.
I thought he meant body cams. Which I think is the case.I think Andrew means the public recording officers (ie on their phones) has become more common.
I didn't hear the interview, so don't have the context, but if he's saying the 'institutional' bit of the expression is unhelpful then I think he has a point. Which is not denying the force has a collective, corporate problem with racism, misogyny and the rest, it's more that the term 'institutional' is open to interpretation in a number of ways, and if you're trying to address the problem, you need precision.

Another dickhead?We're off to a bad start - the Chief has rejected the charge of institutional racism (unlike previously). He also seems therefore not to accept the earlier finding of institutional corruption
Picking up on one element of Casey's wording, he says: "I don't use the 'institutional' label myself", arguing that the term is "ambiguous" and "politicised".

But perhaps he'll clarify?
Can we expect the immortal lines Andrew?I was referring to being videoed by members of the public. Frequently happened to me. I'm all over t'internet if you know where to look.

I'm well aware of the Met's failings but didn't expect the findings of the Casey report to be quite so bad. Just from the summaries being reported it sounds absolutely damning.
I don't know how you go about replacing an entire police force but the Met appears to be unsalvageable - it's just too broken and has had decades to sort itself out.
Defund the Met.
Good example of why that’s a good idea:I'd certainly start recording on my phone if a copper came within 10 yards of me.
