They still have to call in (and pay for) hundreds of MET riot trained officers to quell the unwashed masses. I'll give them this though, every single vehicle that passes in to their patch gets it's plates run and if it's stolen it will get chased and caught by their superb traffic department. ALso their financial investigation team is meant to be the best in the world, which is ironic as the worlds best financial criminals are working as free men on their patch.

Well yeah that's because of the Irish though. I do like that they still have their funny little checkpoints though it's strange that some banks have better protection than parliament / her maj.

Those booths are always empty and are only rarely used to do commercial vehicle checks. On every single road in to the borough there are little black ANPR cameras, once they spot a slagwagon a unit cuts a dash over to straighten them out.

Cliche's like that get used all the time, especially when you know exactly whats going on and you are just trying to make the slag squirm.

It's Hyundai i30's now....

Each response team is usually 3 slamwagons for violent prisoners, 1 Vauxhall zafira for the Sergeants to cruise about in, 3-4 area cars which are 5 series BMW 3 litre diesels, 10-15 Ford focus's and 2 unmarked cars. There are two of those in any given borough in addition to all the other specialist teams, armed units, crime squads etc

Apart from the early hours of the morning, a larger engine doesn't get you from A to B any faster. Sometimes the slamwagons get there first because motorists get out of the way sharpish

Every found wallet/purse call ever.

In other news, if the first words out of your mouth when I approach you on a traffic stop are "WHY THE gently caress ARE YOU PULLING ME OVER?" You can pretty much guarantee you're walking away with a citation for every single possible violation I can find or uncover during the stop.

He did say he was going to hire a lawyer to sue me and I would lose my badge. :ohdear:

The last guy that gave me a ton of poo poo for no reason other than to be an rear end in a top hat kept screaming about how he'd see me in court. I told him I was looking forward to showing the Judge the video of the stop during the trial. After a pause of having that sink in he shut up and didn't say anything else. Guess who didn't show for court after all.

(Don't) gently caress The Police, because it will end up costing the police department £425,000 / €530,000 / $681,000 (lol @ the US exchange rate) http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/oct/23/police-compensation-payout-woman-undercover-officer

quote:

The Metropolitan police are to pay more than £400,000 to a woman who has been profoundly traumatised after discovering by chance that the father of her son was an undercover police officer. It is the first time the police have made a payment to settle any of the legal claims brought by women who were deceived by undercover officers sent to spy on political and activist groups. The woman has been receiving psychiatric treatment and has contemplated suicide since she read a newspaper in 2012 and found out the true identity of the man who had fathered her son before abandoning her and the child 24 years previously.

The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous and is known by the name Jacqui, said the out-of-court settlement in which the Met would pay her £425,000 would not bring closure for her as the force had not admitted wrongdoing. She also criticised the police for dragging out the legal action by refusing to concede for two years that the father, Bob Lambert, was one of their undercover officers, even though he himself had already publicly admitted his covert role.

She added there was “absolute proof” that Lambert was the father of their son as there was “six foot of his DNA walking around”. The police’s obstructive attitude had made her last two years a “hundred hundred times worse”. She said: “It was like they were kicking me all the time. I felt like they had cast me out to the sea, just to leave me, and I was drowning, I was clinging on.” She had previously said she felt as if she had been “raped by the state”.

Though now does the government have to pay 24 years of child support backdated? Because that [a] that is super awkward [b] we've not been doing too well lately [c] holy poo poo it would have to include 8% statutory interest :gizz: [d] Bernard where were you 24 years ago and have you been slamming some protesters on the side son?

Hey, they marketed themselves as the british FBI and have silly job titles as well, don't blame me for repeating that stuff. Funnily enough I was sat at a table with one last night at a dinner and fight, he did 11 years in MET NCS and then moved over, he was a 'senior personnel manager' or something like that, apparently it's the same as an inspector.

At the same dinner and fight a borough commander got in the ring to hand out medals and got booed and heckled off the stage, was a nice sight to see.

How dare you insinuate the MET is anything other than the finest Police service in the world, they told me this during training (they also told us we have the lowest conviction, detection and satisfaction ratings in the country.) Obviously we have to franchise out and teach other services how it's done. I'm particularly fond of how the MET don't trust Police service Scotland to guard the queen so we send MET officers north of the border with barely any powers to do the job for them.
