I worked Norwegian Constitution Day yesterday and jesus christ it must have looked like I was carrying an extra baton. Everywhere I turned there were pretty blond 18-25 yearold students walking about pissed. I need to start working those public events again, I got lectured by some bitter fat old Sergeant because apparently having members of the public kiss me on the cheek all day is unbecoming behavior for a Police officer. I told him it was lucky I wasn't smearing them across a mattress

Dealt with a lass from Holland earlier, she had travelled up from London and needed the toilet. Train guard told her "get off the train and go to the toilet" which is what she literally did. Just squatted down, hitched her skirt up and pissed on the platform. Fair play to her.

As standard her and all of her friends were easily 9/10

I stole a fistful of pens from your London Bridge nick and then emptied my guts in to your toilets. Even your toilet roll is softer than the Met's and all of the officers were walking about with smiles. It's all very foreign.

BTP up north is a cushy gig, we're not constantly blue lighting everywhere but we get a fair bit of work done. BTP in London is a case of arresting and then handing everything over to a case management team. All they do is walk around and talk to the public, respond to jobs, nick people and that's it.

That's basically my job, and because I only work about 3 days a week if it's super serious I get to palm most of the paperwork off on to a detective. Cost's me a loving fortune in Starbucks and blowjobs though.

I'm not that much of a shitbag and I get some decent postings because I get used as muscle who can do his own case papers BUT I loving hate dealing with RTC's and will happily act like my autistic brethren and make someone else do the paperwork for that. I cannot stand doing CARBS (if you have them) much prefer even a criminal domestic or a sudden death than drawing pathetic little cars on yellow paper.

What are the BTP specials like?

They're just like normal specials, usually ranging from vaguely capable but inexperienced (we only have a handful that are over 2 years) to "how are you even here" levels of competence. I can only think of one special or maybe two that I would trust doing police work without hand holding

Our specials aren't allowed to take on investigations, because they rarely put in the commitment to come on duty often enough to effectively investigate crimes.

I fail to see the problem with that.

I'd vote to bomb the French. As an Englishman, waging war with the Frogs and Krauts is in my blood.

Things have been too quiet over the channel. It's about time we picked another fight with Europe and had you guys pay for it again.

Chartley, I'm going to log on to the Glasgow East (or whatever division I can find) channel on the weekend to see if I can understand anything at all.

I'd imagine the ScotPol channels are basically just people yelling "BRRRREACH AW DA PEESH" over and over again

Lost my first prosecution yesterday. The defendant turned up alone, half an hour late in T shirt and trainers, contradicted himself a dozen times and somehow the magistrates took pity on him and let him off.

Now I understand why you Americans just shoot them before they get to custody.

On the other scale of things, I had a belting section 5 that went on for a year because the defendant represented himself for the first two hearings and requested outrageous stuff. He was fined £600 in court costs, later reduced to £400 and also £110 for the offence, £20 costs. Was a thing of beauty, I know the CPS get a bad rep but this prosecutor was on point and super savage.

Keep that poo poo up and you just might get some overtime this summer.

I, on the other hand, will just get bricks thrown at me and a lawful order to stay on duty, for free, until Police Service Scotland and Cumbria police come and save our bacon again.

SCs can't be lawfully ordered to stay on shift, the power to order them to work only applies when a state of national emergency is declared :ssh:

I'm getting my Level 2 training soon apparently so you never know, it might be me riding to your rescue in a Mercedes party van

Good to know, although no doubt there is some MET bylaw that would keep me on duty. I know they were sending cars round to pick SC's up during the '11 summer of love.

I thought all you BTP officers got level 2? Is it done down at Gravesend?

We don't do it as standard anymore, but I understand that HQ is considering adding PSU Level 2 as a mandatory requirement in new officers' contracts

Yeah, we do our initial course at Gravesend and then the refreshers up in Manchester
