GMP performance

[I'm With Stupid]

You dont think this has anything to do with the CPS? Or this doesn't fit your viewpoint? CPS decide the charges for these offences-not the police.

Well yeah, Maggie criticises the CPS too.



Which doesn't mean there's not criminal negligence on the part of the police when dealing with child abuse victims. Not typically caused by individual police, incidentally, but by systemic problems. I'm sure the average police officer would love to bust a child abuser and send them to prison for 20 years.

we definitely agree on the last part!!

Do these problems predate the changes brought about by moving supervision responsibilities to the mayor?
From a distance Tony Lloyd seemed ok but did he get out in time?

Burnham has put a giant target on his back by standing up to the tories. Both him and rashford are going to be getting a lot of scrutiny for years

i suppose it was the tory's that told those officers to go to a kebab shop for two hours on the night of the arena bombing

Officers? As in plural?

I always think blaming an individual (who clearly did wrong in this circumstance) ridiculous. If she didn’t go for a kebab would she have stopped him? Or would he have just blown up whoever was around him when she approached him.

In my opinion the arena bombing needed to be prevented beforehand, not by some unarmed idiot officer eating a kebab.

Who knows, maybe if budgets weren’t cut year after year the anti terrorist unit would have had more funds, resources, professionals and he’d have been caught... all in hindsight though isn’t it.
