#TheMet The most restrained firearms officers in the world. Did anyone mention that? Top class professional frontline cops. Very proud.

@bbcworldservice @Reeps1 @rebeccakesby1 ... And a Masters in mediocracy and doctorate in dodgey denim no doubt. There is no hope.

Let this be a catalyst to look at the office of PCCs - a waste of money and a drain on front line services #ShaunWright

@DannyShawBBC Stuart Hall, Max Clifford and Rolf Harris. Historic convictions in every sense. An end to immunity through celebrity.Terrific

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Great credit to the investigators who gave enough confidence to the victims to present their evidence.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

@OrlaGuerin why is it necessary for you to stand in the midst of the graves to tell the story. Cynical and thoughtless.

#MariaMiller imagine how the regulated industries she lectures on probity feel. Hypocrisy redefined,

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Imagine how the industries she lectures to on probity feel! Definition of hypocrisy re-written.

@mailwright BBC London programme (I was there) was a disgrace. Didn't represent London - just a small section with historical gripes.

Cops recruiting directly to the rank of superintendent first time in 180 years! Could be good so long as it's not about tokenism

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

@chantaldlittle @Royramm can't Friday but would love to see you and be 'kidnapped'

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

@chantaldlittle I never use Facebook! Hello dear how are you?

Babylon channel 4 compared to The Thick Of It - it was flat and no where near as funny as it could have been. Too long.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

@MrTomBlake confused. It wasn't funny enough. Triumph of style over substance.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Babylon - not funny enough. A triumph of style over substance.

Crime down by 10% says ONS. Murder down by 50% in a decade. Verified stats. No 'deception' there. Cops must be doing something right.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Dugan verdict is good news. We don't have a trigger happy police force. Professional cops take risks to project us.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Stephens is about right. Too many ACPO too much bureaucrat , too few cops. Two years to work it out: too long.

[Roy Ramm @Royramm]

Effing or not, Plebgate is doing ineffable damage to policing: CPS must decide whether to prosecute now. Vital for cops credibility.

Maddie M'Cann a pre planned abduction means a good chance someone involved has a criminal history. Tough 6+ years on but good luck to NSY.
