@MrsRatters It was fantastic.

I cannot recommend this series enough! Filmed in the early 90s when I first watched it but just watched again on BBC 4. The most authentic police programme I’ve ever seen. If you’re job or ex, you’ll know. If you’re not then this was pretty much the reality folks! #B4woke!

@GeorgeDick34290 @benonwine No they can't. The PM can't tell these officer's 'gaffer' to do anything.

@JamieClarkBuck1 @benonwine No but their gaffer can when they're instructed to do so by the PM.

The British Police are no longer the solution to this country’s problems but have become the Problem. Why would they endorse and support this nonsense this degrades the officers and the force. The role of the police is simple: uphold the law and protect the public.

@GeorgeDick34290 @benonwine The PM can't sack these officers

@benonwine They'll be out a job soon when Rupert Lowe becomes PM, with no pension, this has got to stop it's embarrassing.

@RebelHQ I hope you made lots of coin from the daft clicks and likes from this nonsense post

The NHS - this is farcical. Sister-in-law phones 111 - she's a passenger in a car, her husband has been bitten by a cat. 111: where are you? Sister-in-law: In the car, I'm a passenger. 111: I have to end this call, you have to phone from somewhere safe. Parks on the duel carriageway lay-by and calls 111: 111: Where are you? Sister-in-law: Parked in a lay-by on a dual carriageway. 111: I have to end this call, I cannot talk to you till you are parked somewhere safe. What? What if her husband had been having a heart attack? This is nonsense.

@GagolaValue @2147mill 25 quid a month for me just outside London. Very good value at three times a week. They've obviously run the numbers and priced accordingly. Staff all good eggs too...

@2147mill Pure gym £18.99 a month

This is a genuine question. When was the last time you bought something in the UK and thought: “that was good value!” Because I really struggle to think of one.

@eastlake_e @BettyBoochichi2 Agreed.

@BettyBoochichi2 He is the last person to be leading this, honestly I would go for Sir John Stevens if they’re going for ex Police, he worked different police forces was head of the Met, Insp of Constabulary, looked into NI collusion allegations oversaw investigation re Princess Diana’s death

The home secretary Shabana Mahmood has announced that Lord Hogan-Howe, the former commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, will lead her radical review of policing in England and Wales. Hogan-Howe, 68, was a policeman for 38 years and became chief constable of Merseyside and an inspector of constabulary before leading Scotland Yard. He has been asked to deliver “evidence-based recommendations” by the summer. That’s not a lot of time, but Shabana Mahmood has already made her mind up. Instead of 43 forces, she wants a smaller number of larger forces plus an overarching National Police Service (being likened to a British FBI). The argument is that big forces can handle big investigations into homicides, major drug crime and firearms more effectively. Within these new forces, smaller teams would handle neighbourhood policing and petty crime. Police leaders have been asking for a quarter of a century for an overhaul of police structures; most favour a reduction to either nine or 12 regional forces. Politicians have, however, been reluctant to grasp the nettle, calculating that there are no votes in abolishing forces with names such as Staffordshire, Dorset or Norfolk that are clearly linked with place and community. Is Hogan-Howe the right man for this job? He arrived at Scotland Yard in 2011 promising a back-to-basics return to “total policing”. He left in 2017 with his record tarnished by the Met’s handling of Operation Midland, the unhinged investigation into fabricated allegations of child abuse and murder made by the fantasist Carl Beech. The Met had to apologise for its treatment of the ex-Army chief Lord Bramall, the family of the former home secretary Leon Brittan and the ex-MP Harvey Proctor. The real issue, however, is not Hogan-Howe’s personal record but whether it is appropriate for a long-serving police officer to be leading this review at all. The Home Office says he will be assisted by an advisory panel but, in the short time available, can there be adequate consultation with those who have legitimate interests in and concerns about the future of policing? Will the victims of crime (either survivors of sexual violence or retailers plagued by shoplifters) be heard? How will these superforces be scrutinised? The British model of policing by consent means those given powers of arrest, coercion and the use of force must be held accountable. Few doubt that the architecture of policing needs an overhaul, but should a policeman be overseeing that reform? As a former chief constable said to me the other day: “Police reform is far too important to be left to the police.” Link TK the article: thetimes.com/comment/column…

@sciencegirl Hear me out...

For those who used a computer between 1995 and 2001, what's the computer game from that time that sticks with you the most, and why

@fredsirieix1 It really isn't rocket science

🚨 WAKE UP CALL: Is this the “new normal” for our kids? 🚨 Seeing police at my son’s school gates today was a heartbreaking reality check. It seems as if we’ve fallen asleep at the wheel, and our children are paying the price. Have you heard about ‘Red vs. Blue’?

@drchrisnewton Don't be a pillock

Were you sleeping? Were the police who normally guard the gates outside the Palace of Westminster opposite the statue blind? Were they even there? x.com/metpoliceuk/st…

@b_northerner @metpoliceuk @TiceRichard

@metpoliceuk @TiceRichard That doesn't answer the question. How was it allowed to happen?

Appalling desecration ⁦@metpoliceuk⁩ you have officers / cctv in Parl Sq 24/7 ….how was this allowed to happen ? ⁦@ZackPolanski⁩ do you condemn this criminality by your pro Gaza mob?

@silogramm @oranstorrie99 @_bpaigeyu_

@oranstorrie99 @_bpaigeyu_ If it wasn't for the shootings I'd have had no idea they had schools there

The Americans tweets about Johnny Davidson have absolutely rattled me. How can a country be full of so many dense people? Doesn’t matter how many times it’s explained to them either they haven’t got a fucking clue

@OAPJo It is literally a benefit. Your opinion that a car isn't a car, but is a lorry, doesn't stop the car actually being a car.

Dear DWP, my pension is not a ‘benefit’ - I paid into it for over 40 years and had 6 years worth stolen from me to pay the banks. Please, stop referring to my paid-for pension as a ‘benefit’.. it isn’t!

@ChrisHillidge @etaknipsa @teachingwrens @hb_history He blocked me as I think he was embarrassed. Also seems to be doubling down. I get the impression he has a lot of anger about the education system and his career.

@etaknipsa @teachingwrens @hb_history Maybe vets should be pushing for more money. Fuelling a race to the bottom really isn't helpful.

In 2010, a starting teacher earned 87% more than the minimum wage (£21,600 vs £11,600). Now, it’s 38% more (£32,900 vs £23,000). Do we need to restore teacher pay to recruit the strongest teachers?

@etaknipsa @teachingwrens @hb_history Reread what you just wrote. Do you really, truly believe that is constructive? That that will help your daughter? Your bio suggests you're smarter than that, bit maybe I misread.

@teachingwrens @hb_history Daughter training to be a vet ..five years ....start on 36 so teachers do ok

I'm often called a boomer, it's meant as a slight and usually comes from younger males who think we had it easy. They're posting from their double glazed homes with the heating on Fridges, multiple TVs, gym memberships, and they love playing on their X Box keeping their working hours under 21 per week so they can claim benefit The reality of being a boomer. We had parents who served in a war and suffered a further 10 years of food rationing so breast milk was scarce due to malnutrition. Being born in a cold damp house heated by a coal fire, your dad's army coat was used as surplus bedding. Vegetables were seasonal as were childhood diseases. We fought them all off Measles, Mumps, chicken pox and even scarlet fever. The countryside was a world away, and you only saw grass if someone in The street had a car and took you there as a weekend treat. We didn't need a computer to occupy our Sunny Delight hyper active minds, the journey, looking out of the window was the treat. We walked everywhere, We usually had just one fat kid in school not a full class of them with their allergies and syndromes. We had one special outfit known as our ' Best Clothes' and these were looked after like the robes of an ordained dignitary. Hygiene wasn't even a thing, there were no bathrooms, the toilet was at the bottom of the yard heated by a paraffin lamp to stop the pipes freezing. The only hot water was the kitchen sink with a water heater known as a geyser . Used frugally to keep costs down. Teachers smoked in schools, everyone smelled of nicotine. Windows weren't opened till May as heat was precious. Often the bills outweighed the income and were juggled for payment . No automatic washing machines or dryers, mangles were in the back yard to squeeze out the excess water after a dolly tub wash . You might have to research these items. If you wanted to learn you had to read books, there was no Google short cut . Communication was someone five doors down who might have a phone you could use as long as you took a threepenny bit to pay for it. The operator would put you through!. You didn't follow your dreams, you didn't dream, you just took a job to bring money into the house and tip up to your parents to help with the bills. No spa days no film star beauty treatments no weekends away or hen nights abroad, two weeks in Blackpool once a year if you were lucky. This went on till you could afford to start your own dreary journey of a life as a working class Brit in the very early 60s. This is the same generation now helping fund kids and grandkids education or house purchases because you've blown it on take aways, tattoos, designer clothes, stag nights that last longer than family holidays, and other such self absorbed bollox. Boomers have usually contributed at least 50 years of a 42 hour week so they can have time to themselves before some health issues steals what's left of their lives. So if choose to use social media mind your own business and get up your own end!

@Matt_Pinner The advert was "Dan, Dan, the Datsun Man..."

My wife says it never happened. Who remembers there’s a car called Datsun before it was renamed as Nissan?

@BenWallace70 @EllieCohanim @Keir_Starmer That is splitting hairs Trump suggests what you agree with! Shame that this Government can't see past their prejudice for one man to an allie, the US The greatest allie we have ever had. Now that is very childish

Kick UK out of NATO @Keir_Starmer
