hi cmnimo
i knew after I went out that the vid had affected you - - - you can't just wave it away - - - the Mitchell story lacks substance and there is clearly more to it than a bicycle - - -
and now you are saying that the police will be stricter under labour - - -
which is ironic - - - and you then go on to say that they should be polically independent right - - - which you have put there as an implication they should not be accountable - - - that kind of autonomy you might find only in voluntary groups but - - -

'Power without accountability is an invitation to dominance'

Panels will consist of 10 members appointed from among relevant local authority members as well as two co-opted members
former Secretary of State for Justice, the Rt Hon Jack Straw MP, stated in Parliament on 4 March 2010 that the Government had concluded that there was a case for restricting to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) the right to prosecute for universal jurisdiction offences, thereby removing the right of private prosecutions
The Home Affairs Select Committee, for example, concluded in 2008 that a large part of the problem creating lack of public confidence is driven ?by a lack of clear information about local crime and police activity?. It consequently urged the Government to consider how to make information about police activity, crime levels and police successes genuinely available to the public, which would in turn be a useful tool to set neighbourhood priorities that genuinely reflect local problems

from your pdf - - -
the non waffle bits being about involving the community in police accountability - - - it doesnt really say how the committees are elected - - - involving 'the community' is a trendy idea that doesnt always hold up where the community are not interested unless they feel directly the effects of an intrusion into their own homes - - - and so we have self appointed committees basically delegated to make up new laws where the law of the land can't be unambiguously applied - - - or even sometimes where it can the committees will decide otherwise because they said so - - - for instant i was brought up to belief that crimes of passion were outlawed - - -
now you have very cleverly made it look like the police should have autonomy in their decision making at least as far as making little autonomous cliques that can change the law at any moment - - - and Ive asked several times for a thread on ignorance of the law which is an interesting point in view of the vapourous nature of the law these days - - - or what are you saying exactly - - -

Police Allegedly Rape Woman, Charge Her With Violating Modesty. The idea of independent minded individuals with the right skills holding Police to account on behalf of the public is a nice idea - but that's all it is - an idea. In reality it is the main political parties that will take over policing with all the problems that will bring. If you belong to a Party and you are running the Police then you are likely to work to appeal to your core voters and they may not be the ones that need the protection of the Police the most

In this second response, the backup officer displays active listening skills, conveys his understanding of the driver?s perspective, reflects her feelings, clarifies his message, and resolves the conflict by offering an alternative solution
the touch and talk factors focusing, paraphrasing, reflecting, and confronting

In this context, law enforcement training resembles learning to play an instrument, like the piano. Beginners must learn certain basic and requisite piano techniques, regardless of their chosen genre, before they can progress. In law enforcement, all new officers must master verbal and nonverbal interpersonal skills regardless of their job function, title, or location
When officers communicate effectively, it strengthens their ability to gather pertinent information, supplements their technical knowledge, and breaks down barriers between the police and the public. These items mirror how interpersonal skills function in medicine because doctors must bridge the gap between professionals and patients to practice medicine competently.3
Both doctors and police rely on information from human sources to facilitate their investigations. ?If the doctor does not facilitate the story telling?if the patient is not encouraged to go on?the patient very often will not

that is the most comprehensive list of policing skills i have seen and from the FBI the last place you'd expect - - - mostly theoretical I suppose - - - that is what needs working on rather than the election process which is unlikely to be much affected - - - look at the skills instead - - - which takes you into special needs skills also in order to be effective in todays climate - - -

Outline the impact of a range of special needs on communication styles and needs.
Examine the importance of non-verbal communication.
Explore practical ways of relating to children with special needs including the use of communication aids where appropriate.
Identify the personal challenges and opportunities associated with creating and maintaining relationships with children with special needs
Demonstrate an ability to work effectively with others in promoting and maintaining good practice including confidentiality, appreciating boundaries etc.

just to touch on the tip of that - - - I mean the potential for abuse of vulnerable people is so immense including areas of privacy and confidentiality I really think its the training that most needs to be stared at - - -
