Re: Stop by police during routine check baliff took my pco reg.taxi

Do you know what BB, even though it is very serious about the kiddie fiddling as you put it, I have myself wondered if the timing of the announcement of this enquiry was such as to divert attention from other things. A report that supposedly went missing years ago and now they want to look into it, maybe I am cynical but it just seems strange because to the general public it probably come out of the blue. I am sure there are people who have been campaigning for an enquiry but it certainly wasn't main street news until the govt started on about it which just makes me feel its diversionary.

I have been contributing to the relevant thread on CAG under the name I use there. I have to say that it is looking very serious for the Metropolitan Police and I do not feel Newlyns or Whyte & Co are going to come out of this at all well either. The words "Misconduct in A Public Office" immediately come to mind. And you can be prosecuted for being involved in Misconduct in A Public Office, even if you do not hold public office, as police officers do.

Hopefully this one won't get swept under the carpet due to reports of the Establishment MP's and Civil Servants doing a Jimmy and Rolf with kiddie fiddling, pushing it from the news.

Greater Manchester Police are ahead of you. They were presented with some vehicles by New Charter, a Housing Company. The police cars displayed the New Charter logo.

About time somebody stuck some 'As sponsored by..' on Met vehicles I think

It looks very grim for the Met and the bailiffs, as to that video, the stop was unlawful from the beginning.

At least one of the policemen is identified by name in the video clip and has been published on the internet along with badge numbers etc....

I hope this does not mean those officers are used as scapegoats - they were only following orders. The people involved in arranging this operation and the Enforcement Company themselves are the ones who should be called to account in quite a high profile way IMO.

The other significant issue here is if the Met (and thus all police forces in the eyes of many) can do this, then what other corruption is going on within the very institution we rely to be impartial.

Not yet - may be tomorrow now, very rare Milo works beyond 1am. The Met are going to face some interesting questions.
