警察与£320百万预算-，但是没有罪行!
星期六， 2008年7月12日 谈论这个报告在RINF论坛 > NORTHUMBRIA警察是其中一个英国的最大和最繁忙的军队。 它雇用超过4,000名官员并且有预算在£320百万附近一年。 那，更多比£1百万在它的PR部门上花费。 然而，作为在Northumberland根据的一位自由职业者的新闻工作者，我频繁地惊奇在怎样平安区域是-或，至少如果您相信力量的新闻办公室。 尽管力量，当没有一种罪行被发布给媒介时，现在支付雇用职员它的新闻办公室在星期六和星期天，有整体周末。 但这里有一个根本原则，并且那是使用媒介的警察的古老的传统警告公众怎么回事-和帮助他们捉住罪犯。 在最后十年，我为Northumbria警察竞选是更多开放以公众-即。 支付他们的薪水的人民。 我收集了数百未被发布给媒介也未被发布以后几星期甚至几个月严肃的罪行的例子。 这些包括被保持从公众掩藏的强奸、持械抢劫和其他可怕攻击。 多年来以后开一定数量的会议与首要警察迈克尔Craik，我一再被许诺服务将改善。 并且是，预算为新闻办公室，促进了-生长从£620,000二年前对£1百万它现在消耗。 也有在故事的数量的大增量关于怎样的高级官员是切口罪行形象。 的确，在有一种可怕罪行时候-例如谋杀或刀子攻击- PR机器踢入生活以行情从注重怎么的一位高级官员“罕见”这样罪行是。 并且舒展可信度，其中一些声明是骇人地厚脸皮的。 In fact, it would appear they are cutting them so dramatically that one recent weekend saw not one crime worthy of being given out by Northumbria…. However, through an application under the Freedom of Information Act, I discovered there had been more than 4,800 incidents that weekend, including 161 serious crimes. A good question – and one I’ve been trying to have answered for nearly 10 years now. In the past, I have taken the liberty of occasionally writing to or telephoning the senior officer concerned. There then usually followed a reasonable and well-mannered debate in which they would either quote particular “operational reasons” or admit there was no good reason why the public had not been warned. But now, following the publication of a series of articles in The Guardian, The Times, Press Gazette and other publications, I have been banned from even daring to ask such questions. In a letter, Deputy Chief Constable David Warcup claims crimes are not released for “operational reasons” and the force does not have to “justify” such decisions. As a journalist with more than 23 years’ experience – most of it spent specialising in crime – I appreciate there are times when crimes might have to be held back for genuine “operational reasons”. But there is no way they have to be held back in such huge numbers. My contacts tell me that, as part of that strategy, they have to reduce the “fear of crime” and, if that means telling the public less, then so be it. Mr Warcup recently defended the force’s expenditure on PR by saying: “Although crime in Northumbria has fallen significantly in the past 10 years, our research shows that the perception of crime has not. “We have therefore invested a significant amount in services which aim to make sure people have a better understanding of crime in their region.” Ironically, since the publication of my comments, I have been contacted by a number of police contacts who agree with my stance. Like me, they are not anti-police. However, as well as being police officers, they are also members of the public – and taxpayers. And, like me, they believe that, in a democracy, the likes of Mr Warcup should have to justify why the public are kept in the dark about what is happening in their area.

Well done Mr Green, but your seach for answers has only just begun. The Police authorities spend a massive amount on Diversity training, Common Purpose training and NLP courses, some Police Heads are even NLP practitioners.
If Policemen/women are not Diverse enough, they will not be promoted. Police Authorities will be tested on their EU Diversity training by 2009 - not on crime. Diversity training includes political attitude, a programmed officer will tell you that ” this ‘democratically’ elected Government has the power”………… Other officers are perturbed by behavioural changes in some of their colleagues. Some police on ‘postings now do not take the Oath.
These EU citizens are programmed to be anti-British and wrongly believe that Treason and Misprision of Treason are not crimes. They are trained to follow an agenda to change the whole fabric of our police forces and crime fighting to make way for EU State police - or Police State.
We were warned of this long ago, when I too was sceptical, surely people can see what is happening for themselves, if they don’t wake up soon it will be too late.
