@ScotAmbSOM_Nick @ScotsCop The assessment carried out by a cop with 5 hours training with the same outcome. Here's the phone number do it yourself

Absolutely horrendous. Just fkcking devastating. Thoughts are with all family's friends colleagues and loved ones and other emergency services attending this devastation. ❤️

BREAKING: Two police officers are among seven dead in the A66 crash near Middlesbrough.

The crash involved a police vehicle and a Volkswagen Passat on the A66 and triggered a "significant" emergency response.

You do know we left the EU right?

[ScotsPolFed @ScotsPolFed]

The EPP Group has proposed an EU-wide act to recognise police officers, military personnel, prison officers, and border guards as high-risk occupations. Here’s a quick breakdown of what it could mean.

Good to see the politicians getting extra special holiday days granted to go to for jollies. We cant get one day extra .... will @ScotsPolFed do anything?

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

Yaaaayyyyy no public holiday. Another win for the Fed.

@RogerthePolice 😉👏

And you harp on at probationers about standards and you have them in a muster room with leaking windows. I once worked in an station where all harling had fallen off front of building - cement had failed after 20 years. Never got fixed in the 3 years after it happened.

[ScotsPolFed @ScotsPolFed]

More investment is needed in the police estate, with 11 per cent of the rated ‘poor’ - with buildings showing major defects or not operating adequately. Police Scotland has been accused of using “sticking plasters” to patch up stations. https://t.co/wavMMLd8Ru

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

This was the public facing presentation they walked into. A building collapsing and we are some people's last chance at help. Not exactly setting expectations high.

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

Well done Sir. Now dont sit on this. Keep stading up and push back and let cops police. Your results will go up if they dont have fear.

“Apprehending violent and dangerous criminals is a full contact and messy task which may appear shocking to observers with little experience of policing in the real world.”

Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley writes to Zack Polanski.

Ant idea on the pension challenge through solicitors where we all gave our details over etc?

Whats the aim of that? It was years ago we signed up?

[ScotsPolFed @ScotsPolFed]

Two groups of police officers embroiled in a pensions crisis have scored a partial victory after months of vehement campaigning - via @1919_mag https://t.co/CohbKxrQkx

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

@HoboUK Its a soundbite. Not a leader leading

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

2 officers word and hospital CCTV not good enough? Make it a lawful instruction backed by the top we will do as we are told. But they won't do that. They know risks.

[ScotsPolFed @ScotsPolFed]

The rollout of body-worn video could allow police to leave mental health patients in hospital, potentially freeing up hours of their time, the Chief Constable has said. https://t.co/J53xUvZe5C

@hudson77449685 Experience will make calls like that. I certainly did.
However todays world there's not much Experience left.

@TheIBDBag I will enjoy seeing train drivers and staff get another 5 to 6% in a few months though. Should assist me to feel better about myself

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

So why did you take a 2 year pay deal without knowing whats around the corner. Complicit in the problem. 😭 echo chamber do as we say

@TheIBDBag The inflation guarantee does not help now when prices sky rocket i am sure you agree. No point getting excited for a guarantee in March 2027?

Fed have been contacted but alas the deal is signed. Nout will change till April 2027 now.

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

@iaingray999 @ScotsPolFed Yeah not good when diesel is 40p higher per litre than it was a week ago

[PC Toadfish @ScotsCopper]

No one should ever go to work and not come home. 😭😭😭😭😭

[Kent Police Federation @KentPolFed]

All @KentPolFed are devastated at the news of the on duty death of our colleague PC Bradley Corke. Bradley, 27, died on Saturday following injuries sustained in a road traffic collision as he travelled to an emergency call in Swanley late on Thursday. https://t.co/21qk88BC98
