The leader of Britain’s police chiefs’ organisation has become the most senior serving leader to say that policing is institutionally racist, as he called for a fundamental redesign of national policies and practices to eliminate discrimination.
Gavin Stephens, the chair of the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC), said black people should no longer experience disproportionate use of force, and that too little progress had been made to reform policing, with some leaders slow to accept the size of the challenge.
Stephens – elected by his fellow chief constables to lead their representative body – emphasised it was his personal view that discrimination in policing operated at an “institutional level”.
Just run yourself a query “FoI uk police with criminal convictions”. FoI stands for “freedom of information”.
Eg. https://www.met.police.uk/foi-ai/metropolitan-police/disclosure-2023/may-2023/serving-police-officers-criminal-convictions/
You won’t be surprised to learn, from clicking a few of the results, that high ranking officers are convicted of serious crimes but are still great police officers.
Then, try the same query again with rape and sexual assault.
The site is poorly optimized for mobile, can you summarise?
I found if you turn it sideways it becomes legible.
Thank you kind netizen!
Anyone noting the sexual convictions for serving officers - not accusations, convictions.
