The murder of Henry Nowak has highlighted how the police can behave very unfairly, presuming guilt & showing a callous disregard for life.
But this has not happened in isolation. The police will also act that way to other police officers.
It has to stop.

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@RogerthePolice Has anything changed really in that time ?

[Roger the Policeman @RogerthePolice]

Ten years retired.
With the passing of the Police Ethics, Conduct & Scrutiny (Scot) Act 1995, my role in that & helping to publicise flaws in the way the police handle complaints & misconduct investigations, it has ultimately been ten productive years.

Full frontal attack by @KemiBadenoch on police staff support networks and recognised associations who seek to influence policy by virtue of identity politics.

Echoing concerns set out in @HMICFRS in their report on activism and impartiality within policing as found here https://t.co/RLElIdGgZS

What is missed is why these associations felt they needed to exist in the first place. What had gone wrong with the original representative pathway @PFEW_HQ which has continually dismissed their concerns and counter views in favour of adopting their own forced narratives and favourable position.

The monopolised police representative landscape is long overdue reform and I believe the @The_NPA_UK campaign to #BreakTheMonopoly provides the perfect opportunity and vehicle to achieve this.

@nigelmp I do agree I’m sure it’s just another lip service offering for image . They could train someone internally on this subject and roll out training and culture change . They don’t want to do this as it’s the culture that protects senior officers .

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@SecretCicero Very sad . I hope the officer can recover and move on with his life after such an ordeal.

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@nats_tired Eye watering salary however they keep putting inspectors and chief inspectors in these roles who have no training& are affected by cultures that are the backbone of how the police is run.Internally they are completely blind as to what equality diversity & actually inclusion means

[Just an old bloke @nats_tired]

Police Scotland is looking for “an experienced equality, diversity, inclusion and human rights professional” with a starting salary of £75,641.

Its latest quarterly figures show Police Scotland had 123 fewer police officers than it did at the same time last year.

[Linda A @Lindstar24]

Former Detective Chief Inspector says many of the rules in policing today are made by people who come straight from University and have never actually worked as police officers 🙄

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@apoliticaleye @GBNEWS Sadly this is both our government and police leaders that have not led by example and remained impartial that has caused all this . I’d say the current position we are in has taken about 14 years to get to in Police Scotland .

[Chris Hobbs @obbsie]

Yesterday, I was thinking, as the day progressed, of the threat that now exists to, not just all police officers but the families of those police officers in their own homes. Spookily, last night I watched an episode of the Rookie which showed officers & their families being targeted & attacked in their own homes. Later on, I stumbled upon this document. At present ALL officers are being collectively smeared. I’ve watched GB News to see some presenters ranting against all police. The bosses/politicians/the Fed need to be alive to this threat but I won’t hold my breath.

There is unquestionably a disproportionate response to officers actions by their own forces and other regulatory bodies and groups, when there is even a perception or allegation that an officer has breached some; unfairly low and movable line in their interactions with some minority groups.

A response that does produce the same questions nor scrutiny if those claiming such treatment come from other more dominant social or racial groups

The decision around such matters has been; and is increasingly, not whether officers have crossed the boundaries of criminal law or policing misconduct regulations but how the confidence of groups are impacted.

The direction of travel for the examination of any such allegations or complaint should by nature and fairness be;
1. criminal
2. misconduct
3. Minority perception

Sadly 1, 2 and 3 can so easily and now provably so, be interchangeable to accommodate those within that final group 3

There is little doubt that officers are at much greater risk from more intense scrutiny when dealing with some groups than others.

But in response to that do officers deliberately avoid such interaction ? or is it now a learned process that goes on in the background of their decision making.

The death of Henry Nowak has unquestionably been the catalyst for the explosion of outrage on this topic but the confident belief of some that his death comes as a result of it is deeply deeply flawed and sadly being used by others to fuel less reasoned debate around this and other issues.

Good morning everybody! Here is today's cartoon:

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@GrahamGGrant This case must be coming up soon I think 🤔

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@GrahamGGrant @MailOnlineScot @DailyMail The existence of Misogynistic behaviour & discrimination was met with resistance by senior officers without protected characteristics. If you speak up you become a target.if you raise a greivance they say it’s all about ‘perception’ but it’s never the complainers ‘perception’.

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@SecretCicero My experience of Police Scotland is a culture focused on control/self preservation where misconduct threats, monitoring, lies , rumours, and minor issues are sometimes used to intimidate officers and maintain authority.

[Ex-PC Lady Whistleblown @ochwheeshtyou]

@SecretCicero Police Scotland current systems and culture promote bullying from leaders to gain control and make everyone the same but that just isn’t possible as staff are not robots.

[Cicero @SecretCicero]

Me reading the Conduct Regs cos PSD don’t

@CallieMac009 Misogyny and sexism in Police Scotland

[WildBilly @VeryWildBilly]

The Chief Constable of Police Scotland has been warned she faces a judicial review if the force fails to reinvestigate the "alleged misappropriation of ring-fenced political donations" to the SNP. https://t.co/Z0OOffTawH
