Much necessary scrutiny of the language, the words, the exclamations of senior police officers this week. I talk about language of emergency response here open.spotify.com/episode/4X3Ocw…

Attention police forces who think that integrating AI, particularly Co Pilot, is some sort of quantum leap forward and only a positive, whilst using it to justify cuts to personnel and their corresponding (human) expertise… this will be the tip of the iceberg.

BREAK: West Mids police chief constable Craig Guildford offers “profound apology” and admits that fictitious Maccabi/West Ham match included in police “intelligence” used to justify ban ***was*** generated by AI. Guildford said the opposite to MPs.

If you work in and around crisis management and resilience I am interested in your views for some research. I would be grateful if you can fill in the survey and share with others to complete. Thanks

Two bits of risk perception in one picture: considering tsunamis and power outage plans!

Following last Monday’s poignant anniversary of the 7/7 bombings, we’d like to reflect on what happened that day from not only the perspective of a survivor but someone whose job it was to protect the public.

Today marks 20 years since the 7/7 London bombings, which killed 52 people and injured over 770 others.
We remember the victims and all affected, and honour the bravery of emergency services, especially BTP officers and staff who worked tirelessly in the aftermath.

BREAKING: New national security strategy warns that the UK must “actively prepare” for war on the homeland for the 1st time in many years
“For the first time in many years, we have to actively prepare for the possibility of the UK homeland coming under direct threat, potentially in a wartime scenario”

Over the years I’ve queried how JESIP intend to improve their integration of BTP, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency or Cat 2 responders and it feels like it just sits in their “too difficult” box…

It’s reductive and disappointing. The exclusion of other Category 1 organisations (not to mention non-Home Office Police Forces) from this work seems completely at odds with the Pollock Report and @jesip999’s own fundamental guiding principles.
Hugh Deeming@HasisD
The new 1-min videos represent 3 more @jesip999 outputs that are almost exclusively focused on the 3 x 'blue light' services How will other responder orgs be able to argue for / justify investment in training when such a powerful 'blue light' framing effectively excludes them?

It feels more than a little ghoulish that the most popular download packs on Microsoft Flight Simulator right now are for an Air India 787 and Ahmedabad airport… is this a new post-incident phenomenon, emergency planners?

No Senior TT, and I'm thankful for it the-race.com/tt/senior-tt-2…
English
Emergency planners and event planners could learn a lot from the Clerk and organisers of the TT; especially on how to manage significant and changeable risks and communicate decisions effectively and sensitively.
Isle of Man TT Races@ttracesofficial
UPDATE: Following the Course Inspection Lap and having consulted with a number of competitors, the Clerk of the Course has confirmed that, due to high and gusting winds in a different direction to those over the rest of the TT fortnight, conditions are not suitable for racing. As a result, the Senior TT Race has been cancelled. The Clerk of the Course would like to thank everyone for their co-operation throughout the 2025 Isle of Man TT Races. Further comment will be issued in due course.
