'Too often, I see good officers destroyed by a broken, bureaucratic system.'

Sir Mark Rowley says the firearms officer known as Whiskey 80 should never have faced a decade of legal trauma, and calls for urgent reform to stop criminals weaponising split-second police decisions.

[John Sutherland @policecommander]

No possible good can come from this.
And it’s not the fault of the Met.
It’s the fault of politicians who have cut policing to the bone.

We’ve been a little quiet lately, working behind the scenes on a new & improved approach to delivering brilliant @WeCops chats!

BUT - we have an exciting announcement- 📣 SAVE THE DATE

[Metropolitan Police @metpoliceuk]

"The Met is overwhelmingly made up of good officers and staff who work relentlessly to keep Londoners safe."

"The announcement by @HMICFRS that the Met has moved out of 'special measures' validates our substantial progress so far."

[Metropolitan Police @metpoliceuk]

The Met has moved out of special measures.

We've made major improvements in call handling, tackling child exploitation, improving public protection and countering corruption.

Thank you to the officers and staff who have made this possible.

Do you require a pizza delivery or the police?

A heroic police emergency call handler has been commended for her quick-thinking after realising a call from a woman was in fact a disguise and an urgent call for help.

🔊 Listen to the 999 call

[JD @JayDeseret]

I was investigated for Gross Misconduct and this is a summary of my experience: at the beginning of a year I was told there was fact finding. In Spring of the same year I was notified that it was being referred to as Gross Misconduct but not knowing what it was for. 1/8

Trust: Giving someone control of something that is important to you.

Have a think about who you can trust in your life. It is everything.

@mark74brown @WeCops Yes. As citizen journalism grows, it’s not much different from having a camera record your responses (although in uniform you’d hopefully tow a professional line). In both situations, context is everything and therefore requires effort to convey it. Every time. #WeCops

[Inspector XL @ConstableXL]

@WeCops It's difficult, because the public are a 'variable' in this instance. The mood of the virtual town square often fluctuates, based on many a thing, not just current affairs. So what's OK one week, may not be the next. Huge grey area with significant corporate risk. #WeCops Q3.

[Inspector XL @ConstableXL]

@WeCops Always remember, once it's online, it is forever. #WeCops Q2.
