VIDEO EXCERPTS: As I said, I have a great respect for hardworking police officers who just get on with the job. It's not the rank-and-file coppers who are the problem. It's the top coppers. It's the senior policeman. It's the woke chief constables. When did they start announcing, was it Friday or Saturday morning? Yeah, don't speculate. There's no suggestion that Ann Widdecombe's murder was in any way politically motivated or terrorism-related.

I sort of tweeted, Well, how do they know? I'm not so sure I trust them. People said, Why don't you trust the police? I said, oh, I don't know. Southport, Henry Nowak, so many other egregious examples of two-tier policing. They've lost our trust...

[...] I would suggest absolutely shocking. But let's rewind only one week to last Monday when Lord Blunket and Lord Herbert published their report on senior police in Britain. And what did they discover? Cronyism, nepotism, senior rank being used for sexual favors, corruption, and much more. So are we remotely surprised that senior police officers in Britain are getting it wrong again and again and again?

[...] I'd love to get your take on this. It's the way that the police now have taken on this role for which they are not appointed, which consists of keeping the hoi polloi calm. [...] Keep the plebs calm. That's not the police's job. And in trying to do that job they have humiliated themselves.

It most definitely isn't, but it's rather symptomatic of your sort of woke, liberal, progressive type of attitudes where we have this overreach. Now, we all know that the left of politics claim that they're everybody's mate. But they're actually very intolerant. Now we have the police overreaching in a pretty typical kind of way. They love to tell us what to do. They love to tell us how to do it when it frankly has nothing to do with them.

Stick with your job; communicate properly, firmly but politely. and stop being blown by the wind. Stop chasing your tails and stop giving incorrect information out to the public because all that does is further damage trust and confidence in the police...
