We normally hear about corruption occuring with international policing around the world, surprisingly even the UK policing crops up now and then.
Nearly half of all police forces in England and Wales have officers facing charges of corruption or dishonesty, according to a survey by The Times newspaper. Altogether 105 police officers in 19 out of 43 forces are under investigation.
Police should be serving the community and honour the civil service that they perform, and not bring shame to the force. An example of ex police commander, who was caught in taken bribes and was named and shamed by Met Police Authority as well as the society. Damn right it should be too!

I believe UK police are becoming a failure and a sham to society, as criminals are let loose down to bribery or the police destroy evidence due to corruption. Either way, I'm not a big fan of the UK police as it happens as they are too quick to let instances or events go, it's bad and wrong in morality.
What's the saying again? Crack down on crime?? Yeah whatever!

I agree with your blog, the police are not becoming better or more helpful. What seems to be happening is the police are becoming less accountable to the people of this great nation. I believe police chiefs should be elected for 2 years maximum and if we do not like the service we are getting from the police, then we should have more rights to complain against the force. Then the force would be truly with us.
