@PeterStefanovi2 @PFEW_HQ After tax and other stoppages like NI, it works out at about 65 p an hour for a top of pay scale DI …

Paul McCartney once sang, “..,All need is a pint a day…” sadly the post tax daily increase of £5.20 doesn’t even buy you a bevvy here in Newtown.

I retire in early 2026 ….

Where had this organisation been since 2010?
Deffo not fighting to protect our ever diminishing terms and conditions…
15 yrs of below inflation pay rises has made me skint & damaged my pension amount
I’m sure the handsomely paid CEO might be able to spare us a few Coppers …

Police officers don’t just deserve respect – they deserve fair pay.

Every day, they sacrifice so much to protect us, but their pay doesn’t reflect their efforts.

📢 Demand fair police pay today.

@PFEW_Whistle @PFEW_HQ How much is Charlie on ?

Will we ever find out ?

Mukund is on a wheelbarrow full of cash - paid for by us
Charlie won’t be too far behind him

What value for money are we getting?

[DI Wye @wye_di]

@PFEW_HQ @thetimes Have @PFEW_HQ given any advice around this recent pension payback twist ?
Why pay it out of your own dough or go into debt with a loan/credit card?
Any challenge coming around pension payback ?
Any advice around paying into an ISA to pay shortfall at end of service?
….?

@fact_hunts @PFEW_HQ @thetimes When our old mukka Mukund Krishna visited Newtown CID the other month, he said that @PFEW_HQ didn’t get involved in negotiating Police pay
So outside of potentially represent officers at hearings ..,.,,What do they do ?

[DI Wye @wye_di]

@CEO_PFEW @MerPolFed @PFEW_HQ Mukund - please come and see us at Newtown CID
We are just wondering how this years pay negotiations are working out and if anything is in place to stop our terms and conditions being eroded ?
Any update la ?

What the Dickens is this nonsense?

Thank goodness I’ve only got 22 months left to go in this rudderless and shambolically led organisation..,

@PeterBleksley @BBC It’s only a pair of Stan Smith trainees Peter !
Admittedly not in the original white and green colour way, which is my issue with Tim’s footwear choice …

@TransalpinoO Lumberjackets, semi flared kecks, Silvikrin washed middle part cut with a knife and fork..
…surejy 1985 was the era of Miami Vice and Next for Men, us fashion pioneers at the time expected more from Wirral cops
Terrible attire … even for Birkenhead
See you all in Atmosphere…

@PaulSmithJnr Your local police force have committed to a new “Prevention” department staffed by potentially hundreds across a number of areas with multi agency support and buy in for issues such as this
Everyone doing their bit to reduce cost and demand across range of multi agency issues

[DI Wye @wye_di]

@obbsie Surely policing must be fed up now
Apologising for absolutely everything these days
Britains most wanted and APBs out all over the gaff yet circs of arrest is being reviewed ?
- how furiously was little Danny pulled off ??
- was he hurt ? - bet the officer didnt call or text

@That_Ged @MerseyPolice He is an actual policeboy/man

@TedHastings25 @PFEW_HQ I’ll spend it wisely Ted - will spend some on pints of Mild and some new teeth from Turkey
I’ll probably waste the rest !

[DI Wye @wye_di]

@p_herbert81 @PFEW_HQ I get my pension in just over 2 years. Financially not worth giving that up just yet - will take my chances in the real world then

[DI Wye @wye_di]

For our younger viewers, being in the police today is like an episode of the 70s TV show, The Great Egg Race.

…expected to work wonders with 3 cotton reels, two elastic bands, a tin can, a length of string and some balsa wood…

…ever get the feeling you’ve been cheated…

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to work out that with population growth - per capita - at the end of this Parliament we will have less police on our streets than we did a decade ago not more

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

When it comes to police numbers we can’t believe a word this Government says. Even Larry the cat is now packing his bags. Get the FACTS here
