Met PS

@Brick_Cop @metpoliceuk @PFEW_HQ We run simulations with my relief on EA. We’ve developed the Incident Lead role, similar to an OFC but obviously borough based. Feedbacks been brilliant and my team handle most critical incidents above and beyond what’s expected before us supervisors attend. I’m looking to expand

Something that really does need to be thought about. The average service on #EmergencyResponse is now 2-3 years. A lot of that was spent dealing with a Pandemic. The next time we have a major incident most of these Cops won’t have been to one. Why aren’t we training them? 🤷🏼‍♂️🚨

Absolute heroes, incredible to watch.

@J_Harrington212 @obbsie Was a nice day out tbf!

@obbsie @ps_met You might know some of these, I think.

Significant police presence but all good this far.

@JJSharpers @SgtArv It literally depicts the minimum standard required to be on the front line operationally. Emphasis on the minimum also

@EdwardoYazzie @Ex_arv_sgt @InspGadgetBlogs As despicable as both these people are, they aren’t bad apples. They are part of an unchanged culture in the met which hasn’t evolved over the years. Complete rebranding is needed. More will come to light soon, I’m adamant.

@Ex_arv_sgt @InspGadgetBlogs Couzens and Carrick are just two rotten apples.

@GB46335141 @TomAndElvis @ACLouisaRolfe I work closely with the SLT on my BCU and I’ve seen first hand comments from surveys being discussed during leadership meetings. I do however have a decent SLT team above me who make the effort worthwhile. So in short, yes.

@ps_met @TomAndElvis @ACLouisaRolfe You actually bother filling in the survey??? Haven’t done one for years, SLT consistently being told what’s wrong and consistently ignoring it…… save myself the time and effort and have a ☕️😂

To say I’ve had some Twitter feedback would be an understatement. Ignoring vitriol of anon accounts but willing to take on board my comments may have looked like judgement, even if not intended.

@HantsRajKohli Respectfully, do you think that comment was impartial? Or did it imply that the outcome was already pre-determined? Disappointed you’ve taken this approach as I feel you hit that fine margin of what’s appropriate on SM from SMT.

Senior police leaders should be more on social media is something I hear regularly yet when a trusted and wonderful senior police leader does engage the pile-on that takes place is awful. Just awful. Feedback is fine but some of what I read was just very sad.

@pritipatel 😂😂😂

Boris has the mandate to deliver our elected manifesto and a proven track record getting the big decisions right. I'm backing him in the leadership contest.

@dadwithahat1 Having worked with this SLT member for 6 years in my previous role, I can honestly say he’s one of the good ones 👍

@darrengrimes Darren, every officer is currently abstracted to deal with the mass protests in central london. Officers who should be attending burglaries, robberies etc are deployed to tackle the disorder. We can’t predict every protestors move. If you can, become a special and help.

@MikeyCycling I wish we had the time to do this. Thank you 🙏

@ps_met I'm the cyclist in this video. You'll like it even more when you know that I mostly video and report phone drivers. Around 800 successful prosecutions from 1000 reports in the last four years, roughly.

The things you love to see

Ma’am this is appreciated. Thank you

@MrDeltaHotelUK There’s a bit more behind the scenes which makes this such an issue.

@ps_met I don't see the issue with this Sarge... Actually think it helps the image of The Met and enhances public confidence in armed police if anything...

I can’t quite fathom what was going through both their heads joining the lying in state queue with the current climate. Poor decision, will do no good for the command.

@responsebod They are unfortunately 19

@ps_met They don’t look like Trojan? Are they counties ARV who wouldn’t necessarily be too switched on with the Lambeth discharge?

Barry you were in the job long enough to know the Met as an organisation will protect itself before the needs of the officers. However wrong that may be, the wider implications will always be considered as a priority.

@Foxtrot_Cop Will never happen. Nothing more than the rumour mill over spilling

This is an exaggeration from the rumour mill. Officers won’t sacrifice OT that is almost a requirement now with the cost of living crisis, it’s as simple as that. I don’t know what you’ve been informed of but this is incorrect.
