Re: Policing in the 1970’s
I well remember seeing a police officer run to a blue police box when the light on top flashed. There was a box at the bottom of Sutton Surrey high street on the path in front of the small geen. That was when the old tram rails were still exposed. Well before trolley buses with their overhead electric pickup arms.Re: Policing in the 1970’s
I,ve had a lot of experience, training the dogs, etc, done the driving course, I was a level 1 driver back in the day. not only did people respect the police, but they respected the public, they looked nice and smart in the white shirt and tie too. Now they look too paramilitary, I know it's more practical, but it gives some of the young cops the wrong idea, some are clearly not fit for purpose. I live on a council estate, I work for a living and have a number of qualifications, however whenever we get an incident, the young coppers who invariably arrive talk to me like shit, because I live on a council estate.Re: Policing in the 1970’s
Before it gets too deep, I’ll try and keep it light-hearted, which was the purpose of the thread.Re: Policing in the 1970’s
