I dont trust them, NO WAY
They work on a bonus, so the more arrests and cautions they had out the more money they make.
They get overtime (Double Time) for sitting in court rooms week in week out.
Twice they have tried to stitch me up for no other reason than im 6ft5 and look like a thug.
I was born this size and that does not make me a criminal.
Its just a job with a good wage and most (Not all) dont give a shit about Jo-public.
Before they brought in the new regs a few years back the average arrest rate annually was less than 1 each.
They are only interested in giving normal law abiding people cautions and traffic fines because they dont know how the system works and they are easy targets with little paper work to file. They dont want to catch real criminal who know how to fight the system.
I have to say iv basically got a clean record other than one bullshit caution that i should never have excepted, but at the time they laid it on thick and i signed on the dotted line stupidly.
Not realizing what effect that world have on future job prospects.
Iv never had a speeding ticket or done anything wrong.
I dont like or trust any of them, I dont want to tar them all with the same brush but almost all iv had dealings with are a joke at least and most are more bent than the criminals.
From what iv had over the years, they just point the finger at the big bloke which is far easier.
Yes they have a crap job to do, Shame they dont actually what they are paid for?????

Ultimately, you could end up in court, and I trust myself to tell the truth, I also trust a jury to see the truth.
They arrest you under the terrorism laws even though they know you have not broken any such laws. You spend a day in the nick. You don't end up in court at all. Neither do you see a jury. just Judge and Executioner.
There are many crimes in the UK when you would never see a jury and a government bueorocrat decides what happens to you.

If Labour had their way the govt / cops etc would be able to lock you up without CHARGE, or EVIDENCE or Legal representation for up to 90days, they tried to introduce a bill for 90 day detention under the terrorism laws. they admitted they would use terror laws to stop soccer fans going abroad.

I think we have come to the end of this. Not much prepping related stuff here.
