These are the views of the Kent Police and Justice Unison Branch, not those of Kent Police or Unison HQ. As a member you’re never alone.

If you have travel insurance, and travel against FCO guidance, you risk invalidating your policy

But if your trip is essential, some insurers will still cover you

The key is to make sure you read your policy carefully

@kent_police - lowest absence rate in the country. This is testament to staff and officers. It is testament to the steps taken to ensure staff and officers can work safely. Many support functions such as IT, Business Services & Procurement have worked miracles to enable this.

It is great to see the current t crisis has brought out the absolute best in so many people. Touching to see an NHS worker thinking of others. 😁

When you consider where NI was in 1985, I salute the bravery of those who joined the RUC GC during the height of the murderous, terrorist campaign.

When I joined @kent_police in 1984, my mum nearly fainted. 😉

Have a long, happy and healthy retirement in a very different NI.

Before I sign off as @SupersAssocNI President later tonight. Some time for reflection earlier today, including looking at my 19 year old self in 1985 as I started on my policing journey. A special thank you to ACC Barbara Gray - my friend and colleague throughout those years.

The overwhelming majority of people in Kent are abiding by the rules, enabling @kent_police to engage, explain and encourage compliance. Enforcement remains the absolute last resort and is used relatively rarely.

Policing by consent is maintained.

"This is the moment of opportunity... it is also the moment of maximum risk"

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson tells business leaders "I understand your impatience" to get back to work, but says we "must also recognise the risk of a second spike"

Great work.

[Kent Police Specials (UK) @KentSpecials]

Between Covid-19 breach calls and patrols, it's still business as usual when we come across it. This van had been notified off road...since March 2019 🙄

Not wanting to break a tradition, we kept it off road by seizing it as the driver didn't hold insurance either!

Great comedy.

Twenty Five years ago on 21st April Father Ted first aired. Can’t quite believe that a quarter of a century has passed.

In other news, don’t take cocaine, jump from a first floor window with a large knife, stab a woman in her garden and walk down the road slashing your own throat.

It may seriously damage your health!

Thank you @MrNickKnowles really appreciated at this difficult time.

[Royston Martis @RoamingRoyston]

Policing has a good man fighting its corner. Here is @MrNickKnowles on @GMB outlining the challenges police officers currently face - and questioning the negative publicity they are receiving.

[Unison Kent Police & Justice #StayHomeSaveLives @unisonkentpol]

Now that’s what you call a “repeat offender”!

A suspected burglar is to appear in crown court, charged with breaking into the same #Dover business twice in one night: https://t.co/XRMOsOc6M1

Best wishes to you & your family.

When you hear anyone criticising the youngsters of today, tell them of Kia, a 17 year old carer. What a truly lovely, thoughtful young lady.

Coronavirus: Deaths at 20-year high but peak may be over.
https://t.co/y0Djd14Yr2

[Dave Prentis @DavePrentis]

This doubling in deaths is shocking evidence of the government’s shambolic handling of the Covid crisis. Staff working in care homes and those looking after people in the community have been massively let down https://t.co/rKBBBY0v6n

[Unison Kent Police & Justice #StayHomeSaveLives @unisonkentpol]

The current situation re PPE is a national disgrace. Worse is the changing advice on its use which seems to be supply led as opposed to being science led.

[Unison Kent Police & Justice #StayHomeSaveLives @unisonkentpol]

I suspect this will only serve to invite a great deal of tabloid interest.

I’ve always loved a Chief Constable who is prepared to tell it as it is! Well said.
