Curious to know, if you’d spent a couple of hours cooking up a curry for your family who are visiting from out of town and they turn up saying they are disappointed as they’d hoped you’d have made them a roast dinner instead, is this rude? Kind of wish I hadn’t bothered.
Wow. Hertfordshire Police have a serious problem.
The same force that wrongly arrested parents Maxie Allen and Rosalind Levine — who dared to criticise their daughter’s school on WhatsApp — and were later forced to pay £20,000 in compensation has struck again.
A dozen officers turned up at the home of IT boss Sam Smith after receiving complaints from two Facebook group members last March.
Smith had his house searched, his devices seized, and was forced to spend a night in a cell at Hatfield police station. The force later logged that the search was “not suitable or lawful”. He is now suing the force through the High Court for £700,000 in damages and personal injury.
Sam Smith writes a blog under the name Matthew Hopkins, the Witchfinder General. He penned two blog posts to correct misinformation about a woman in a local park who was falsely accused of being a paedophile, photographed, and confronted as a result of online posts. After he criticised the police for inaction in one — particularly the local inspector — they pursued him.
He was told he was being arrested for malicious communications. During the search, a pile of undelivered Conservative Party leaflets was also seized.
Mr Smith is seeking a summary judgment at a hearing next month. He told the Mail: ‘So far Herts Police have failed to settle the case and ignored the recommendations of their own PCC in defiance of best practice and reason. It is a waste of public money and damages public confidence.’
In 2024, His Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary found Hertfordshire Police required improvement in its investigation of crime and in its leadership and management, and was inadequate in its recording of offences.

@LucyTCWife He was told alls he had to do was stay of the internet bless him . Disgraceful poor man, why was he recalled? He did everything that he was asked of him.
For those of you that don’t know, poor Alex Belfield has been recalled back to prison.
He’s now been back in HMP Nottingham for 5 weeks and is awaiting a parole hearing.
His crime? There was no crime. He had been recalled for words he MIGHT say and is a 0.16% risk to the public.
I have spoken with Alex weekly and he is in good spirits. He has written book no 7 and has made a start on book 8 🤣🤣
He has more rights and less restrictions in prison than he had outside on probation!! Make it make sense!!!
If you would like to send Alex your well wishes I’m sure he would love to hear from you.
You can email him or write to him at HMP Nottingham.
Prison no: A4747EW.

@MitchellWebb85 As soon as I saw him throw the first card that moniker definitely did not fit!
Rick Smith Jr definitely gets that moniker. That was just embarassing him saying that.
@atensnut Does she mean 'nobody is ALLOWED' to tell anyone which is trans maybe? If not then does she mean that she doesn't know also!? If neither then sorry but I've got news for you!
