I've had an article published whilst at @OxfordCrim ! The topic is blame culture in policing. Let me know what you think :)

[Rebecca Reid @RebeccaCNReid]

It is absolutely insufferable watching a load of men who've never spoken a word about the protection of women and girls from sexual abuse suddenly decide that today they care about it.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

We now have the first cabinet in history made up entirely of state school educated MPs

[Torsten Bell @TorstenBell]

So much misinformation around today on who will be affected by changes to inheritance tax - and lobbyists pretending the data isn't clear to obfuscate. We have detailed data on estates so the truth is in fact very clear if you care to look 🧵

“No police officer has ever been prosecuted.”

Apart from the one who was just prosecuted, obviously …

[ana @shivlestat]

the silence after saoirse’s “that’s what girls have to think about all the time” oh you just know they all felt stupid after that

[Danny Shaw @DannyShawNews]

This is quite a moment.

I think Maggie Blyth may be the first chief constable who did not climb the ranks in the traditional way.

She joined the police on a direct entry scheme as a superintendent in 2016 after a career in teaching, probation, youth justice and safeguarding.

I watched parts of the Chris Kaba trial as video footage was replayed, in slow motion, frame by frame. Police sergeant Martyn Blake didn’t have that luxury. He had to make a split second decision in real time. My thoughts for ⁦@spectator⁩ : https://t.co/ULfyaOEDu8

I hate how everything costing a fortune is so normalised now. What do you meeeean £150 for a concert ticket? What do you meeeean £100 for a train ticket? What do you meeeean £50 for a family to have a chippy tea? What do you meeean £7 for a single pint? Robbing bastards!!

Troubling inspection report by @HMICFRS into @metpoliceuk

1 area graded ‘adequate’
5 areas ‘require improvement’
2 ‘inadequate’ - investigating crime & managing offenders

High workloads are a major issue but so are poor supervision, lack of training & inconsistent practices

🧵 about #class #privilege and #privateeducation. Watching the Olympic swimming last night and Clare Balding said something in such an incredulous tone which summed up the establishment perspective and how their experience differs. 1/

[Gavin Hales @gmhales]

What does the cctv footage from Manchester Airport change? Not the facts of the case as they relate to the IOPC and police investigations. But certainly public understanding of (a bit more, but perhaps not all of) the wider incident.

[Moira Donegan @MoiraDonegan]

Not having kids is a morally neutral and legitimate life choice on its own that does not need to be justified with recourse to tragic stories of fertility struggles. It’s fine just to not want children.

[Meghan McCain @MeghanMcCain]

I just saw a woman on tik tok saying we should take a second to appreciate that this is the first time in history the media has considered a woman in her 50’s young.

🤣

[HMICFRS @HMICFRS]

Today, State of Policing, the annual assessment of policing in England and Wales by @AndyCookeHMCI was published.

He explains the key findings and recommendations, including that despite efforts to rebuild public trust, the police are still struggling to get the basics right.

The end of privilege in government

Private school Cabinet members
Keir Starmer’s lowest in history

Starmer : 4% - 1 person
Sunak: 63%

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

Rayner. A woman who came from nothing and fought her way up to the role of Deputy PM and Secretary of State.

What an inspiration.

This will be the most working class government in British political history.

No more old Etonians making decisions for us.

This is hope.

[Ian Dunt @IanDunt]

Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

[John Burn-Murdoch @jburnmurdoch]

I just can’t get past Labour winning 65% of seats off 34% of the vote.

Absolutely wild mismatch between the headline result and, well, everything else.

Britain is now a multi-party system, and first-past-the-post can’t cope.

[Kathryn Farrow @KathrynFarrow1]

@CaPLO_DaveH Thank you Dave, glad you found it interesting. I'm keen for serving officers to find my work useful, otherwise what is the point?

[Kathryn Farrow @KathrynFarrow1]

@ExInspectorBDS @gmhales Hi Brian - that's basically the gist of the paper. I'd still recommend reading it though, as someone who has far more operational experience than I do, I'd be keen to know what you think!
