The personal thoughts & ideas of a serving 'Front Line' police officer based in a city somewhere in the UK...All views are my own & RT's aren't an endorsement!

People keep calling it a pay rise, as far as I can see, it's a pay cut for the 7th year in a row. @Number10gov completely misleading again

@laptop_cop I think (as a member of the public) id much rather the policemen and women chose.

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

anyone ever asked the public what they want? It's a huge decision no politician will ever make, so let's let the public decide. (2/2)

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

We had a referendum for #brexit which was a huge political decision, maybe it's time we had a referendum on the arming of all police. Has(½)

2/2: every year that inflation is more than 1%. With inflation at nearly 3%, we're essentially receiving a 2% pay cut year after year!

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

1/2: Please remember, the emergency services aren't asking for a pay rise, we're just asking NOT to have a pay cut, which is what happens >

So the PM says we've been 'too tolerant of extremist behaviour' - was it not her job as Home Sec & now as PM to make sure we're not?!?!

@MrNickKnowles Thanks for being so openly supportive Nick! Shame more don't fight for us so publicly like you do.

If Diane Abbot had an ounce of sense she would just resign. 1000'000 extra votes for #Labour minimum. Somebody needs to have a chat 🤡

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

@MPS_n_P Sounds right, think it's called 'When It Suits''. Much like when AL refused due to minimum strength but duties would happily take 5 for aid!

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

@MPS_n_P public will want so I wonder what excuse they'll use then! 2/2

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

@MPS_n_P Very true. They always fall back on the argument that the public don't want to see all cops armed but soon I think it's exactly what the ½

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

@MPS_n_P Does she mean, it would be too expensive and couldn't sustain the training/requal time needed away from borough!? #ReadingBetweenTheLines

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

@MPS_n_P Where did she say this?

[Laptop Cop. BA(Hons) @laptop_cop]

I assumed that @HackneyAbbott was part of a sketch show & was waiting for @antanddec to pull the face mask off!

@Peter_Kirkham @laptop_cop How can anyone possibly vote Tory after this, lies and dangerous levels of cuts.
