Having worked with and represented this officer for over two years, I am glad the panel saw through this today and found no case to answer having heard the facts. A huge sense of relief for the officer who can now get her career back on track.

🚨 Police suicide is a silent crisis – and it’s killing officers. More than 100 police officers and staff have died by suicide since 2022. Over 200 have attempted to take their lives. 🧵👇

Would rank and file be able to simply retire and walk away without facing any misconduct proceedings?? I’m not sure they would, even as a former officer.

Our Branch Chair Louise Guest has today featured on @BBCNEandCumbria Politics North programme talking about Police reform and the suggested creation of larger forces.
