Random Irritations

[Morfeen75]

Is it compulsory for them to have it on ?

My understanding yes they do. However, where its highlighted its not been worn its at the discression of the Sarge to reprimand officers as they see fit.

If it isnt compulsory and it can be selectively used then it's not fit for purpose in my opinion.

It seems we have a difference of opinion.

It’s not a matter of opinion. I could probably give you a dozen or more scenarios off the top of my head when BWV is not necessary. And yet you’d have officers slopping out for not using it?

Erm yes it is.

Post #48371 has been posted in my opinion.

No. The body cameras are supplied, as standard, as part of a police officers kit. I expect every job they go to, the Camera to be switched on. The cost alone must be £1-2million, if not more, to provide such equipment.

It is in the interest of both the officer and the public for that piece of kit , of which collects vital evidence, to be used at every oppurtunnity. Armed officers more so.It should not be used selectively.

Guns and truncheons are also supplied buts of kit ………

Out of interest, in what way is any of this a random irritation. You would think that policing and the social and political state of the country would be more than mere random irritations

I know you've not watched the full video just by your response.

If or when you do, you may want to retract that post.

I thought I had seen it all, but must have missed that bit. I retract my comment.

Theres many irritations, possibly too many to list.

What evidence do those weapons collect?

Yes but this thread was aimed at little, random every day things that irritate people and not matters such as this that you should really create your own thread for rather than hijack this one.

Oh please. Its a forum, threads evolve where opinions differ people have the right to challenge such opinions as Billysboots did.

My irritation is the selective use of expensive vital equipment supplied to our Police force. Is that ok?

Agreed. It's taken up about five pages already, certainly warrants it's own topic.

So that is an irritation, something that just niggles you a bit, not something that you feel passionately about as you clearly do and it clearly more than irritates you. Not unreasonable to suggest you simply create a thread where your debate can be fully aired.

No, its still only an irritation. I wont lose any sleep over it nor will i start a petition or a thread. However, when my irritation is challenged, its not unreasonable for me to respond?

Now if challenging irritations were to be banned, i'd be in agreement of that and you wouldn't be so upset. Win Win.

To be fair I have suggested that before simply due to the fact that nobody else can say what irritates someone else or whether the irritation is rational or even fair. This thread is for exactly those things.

Hardly a matter of national importance so I'm reluctant to post, but it irritates me that my BMW's boot keeps randomly auto-closing on my head when I'm fiddling about with stuff inside it. I know what causes it but it's still irritating.
But enough about me - carry on with the socio-political stuff.

Is it really though? If this thread was for personal irritations it would just be pages of mainly 1 liners

Hayfever
Police
Co-op
Kier Starmer
Etc
Etc

None of it would make sense. Then you have the inquisitive folk who are wondering why?

Leave the threads to direct themselves(unless 1,they divert heavilly Off Topic Or 2, they are against forum rules) because usually they revert back to topic sooner.

Returning members who make zero effort to disguise the fact they're returning members.

This shouldnt be in this thread, it could go into GladdenThe Heart or The Laughter thread, but choose wisely.
