Winsor, Vested Interests and Privatisation.

by inspectorgadget
The 'Winsor report' as we all know it  actually has a formal title. Here it is:
Independent Review of Police Officer's & Staff Remuneration & Conditions.
The key word is Independent.
Many people are therefore surprised to learn that Tom Winsor is a senior partner with Global law firm White & Case who advised G4S in relation to its £200 million privatisation project with Lincolnshire Police Authority. The contract is the first of its kind to be awarded in the UK police sector.
How can a situation where a senior partner making large amounts of money from the very law firm advising G4S about how best to replace police jobs with private staff, also writes a report about the very terms and conditions of employment for those police jobs, and it is called independent?
Here is the proof.
I'm now off to write an independent report about how Perverting The Course Of Justice by Inspector Gadget should be compulsory reading for GCSE English students

A Sea of Berghaus and North Face

by inspectorgadget
What a week for policing in England & Wales.
GMP decided to unilaterally bin the ACPO definition of a racist incident after one of the most shocking serial-crimes of the decade, while at the same time the Met are desperately 'sticking-on' anyone accused of saying anything remotely nasty and banning the term 'Blacklist'.
As I have said before, the only racism I ever see at work comes regularly from members of the public when they deal with black officers. If you want to witness the most appalling racist abuse, come and watch what happens when an Irish Traveller is arrested by a black officer. Or you could speak to our female Asian PCSO who used to patrol the Swamp Estate on the edge of Ruraltown.
But such things are never spoken of. Too scared you see. The Diversity agenda is all one-way-traffic, coming directly at policemen. I say 'policemen' because they wouldn't dare discipline a female police officer in the same way. The heat generated by a clash between the Gender Agenda and the Diversity Agenda would light a small city for several months.
At the moment, the public rightfully expect more from us than they do of themselves; this may change radically when local patrols are carried out by private Lincs-style security police .
And finally, apart from a rather uncomfortable looking police minister talking complete George Orwell-inspired claptrap (For goodness sake someone file a crime report for Herbert's missing personality) I will leave the best description of the march to Gadgeteer 'Anon'
"No fires set, no windows smashed, no obscenities daubed, no cars overturned, no buildings stormed, no destruction of property, no insults to dead countrymen and women who sacrificed their lives in past conflicts, no escorting Police (or even fellow protestors) injured, no objects thrown, no kettling, no negative headlines in the world's press, no huge mess of discarded detritus, shit, piss, posters, wooden poles, vomit and smashed glass after everyone went home"
Students, occupy movement and Dale Farmers take note: this is how the grown-up's do things.
Gadget Quote Of The Week
"I'm sorry Emily, you must have mistaken us for somebody else"

What is 10th May really about??

by inspectorgadget
http://youtu.be/RVDM2BxpXBo
It starts to get scary at about 1.06.
Will the British people ever accept this kind of thing? At the moment, this kind of activity has slid past the public's attention by stealth because it only happens to suspects.
When they take over the investigation and patrolling which labels a person a suspect; then the fuss will start. But it will be too late, with contracts locked in for up to ten years.
This is what the march on May 10th is really all about.
Protesting against 20% budget cuts, privatisation and the end of 183 years of policing by a public body directly accountable to an elected minister.
