Met Police Humanists

A Metropolitan Police staff support association. Our views are not those of the MPS. Do not report crime here, go to or ring 999 in an emergency.

We are delighted to announce the appointment of Chief Superintendent Kate Halpin as our Senior Champion.

@EP42_ The available evidence does not support the hypothesis.

It is for the person making the claim to provide evidence in support of their assertion. There is no burden on anyone else to “disprove” it.

[Met Police Humanists @MetHumanists]

There’s no evidence that violent crime increases, or that policing in general is “busier”, on a full moon. #fullmoon #BlueMoon #SturgeonMoon

@andyluvv @GMPMuseum @LGBTpoliceuk @GMPPrideNetwork @grahamwettone @alfiemoore Indeed.

We tell the truth because it’s the right thing to do, not because we place our hand on a book and make a wish.

[NATIONAL POLICE MEMORIAL DAY @npmdUK]

Please consider leaving a tribute to the fallen officers we remember today as part of the #NPMD21 event.

The tribute wall is an opportunity to share memories and thoughts with families, colleagues and friends on this special day. #PoliceFamily

@polchaplainsuk @paz565 @WeCops Oh yes, we’ve been following each other for a while.

Tragic news from India. 🇮🇳

A tea garden worker was beaten to death and buried by villagers after accusing him of practicing witchcraft.

@cadetkb @ThinkAtheist It’s a general statement of disbelief. 🙂

@WalktheTalk999 @paz565 @IslamicChaplain @Humanists_UK @theAliceRoberts We literally know how people are born. This does not evidence an afterlife.

HRH Prince Philip was a dedicated public servant for over 70 years and a decorated veteran of World War II. Our heartfelt condolences go out the members of The Royal Family at this difficult time. #RIP

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen has announced the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

@deebyrney @ALamble701 @juliediane @therealiopc @dontforgetchaos @njm_09 You can try an FOI for the service history of that vehicle.

If you don't want your family finding out you're no longer religious, or if you are gay, bi, or trans, there's a way to edit your personal census data without your household finding out. This is important RT. More info: https://t.co/gmWemW6TML #Census2021 #TickNoReligion

@colinsutton @BBCNews 3/ Transpires that if you read the story, the child was offered food and drink regularly during her period of detention but refused every offer.

Obviously we want to minimise the length of time children are in detention but there wasn’t really even a story there.

[Met Police Humanists @MetHumanists]

@colinsutton @BBCNews I can remember a BBC headline a good few years back “Girl spends 18 hours in police custody without food or water” (or similar headline), which I and others challenged. /2

Start your day right. Here's the eminent cosmologist and humanist, Carl Sagan, on finding meaning in life.

[Humanists UK @Humanists_UK]

Today is the International Day of #ZeroTolerance for Female Genital Mutilation. As today reminds us, bodily integrity is a human right and we must all commit ourselves to ending the horror of FGM everywhere on this planet. Children have rights - it's as simple as that. #EndFGM RT

[Humanists UK @Humanists_UK]

This moment is a great test for societies everywhere. Ambitious rollout plans. World-class science. Ordinary people pulling together - all to bring our current challenges to an end.

We've put more information about the vaccine rollout on our website.

[Humanists UK @Humanists_UK]

With no much in the news about 'vaccine hesitancy', it's good to be able to show that our community hasn't been taken in by fake news or conspiracy theories. As well as taking the vaccines when we can, many of our members will be volunteering locally with vaccine rollout efforts.

[Humanists UK @Humanists_UK]

This shouldn't come as a surprising result. Humanists are non-religious people who base their views and decisions on consideration of the best available evidence, looking to science for answers, and guided by compassion and empathy for other people and other living things.

[Humanists UK @Humanists_UK]

In a recent survey, a whopping 95% of our members said they would be taking the coronavirus vaccine when it is offered to them. A further 1% were unable to take it due to allergies.
