Clearly not one where their Officers are dragged for a mile on a road until dead.
Anyone who does not have the testicular fortitude to state the facts of life is unfit for a senior position.
Look at the BLM situation: not a single serving senior Police Officer has had the stones to call it out, along the lines of 'Hang on. We've spent over a decade, blood and treasure trying to stop your kids killing each other and now we're the bad guys?'
Plenty of ex military in the immediate area.
Clay pigeon shooting is a popular local sport as well. I think any trouble could be dealt with in a robust manner.
And then after that, plod can arrest the ex military because they're obviously XRW trouble makers who are protecting their own property.
The world has gone mad.

But the fact that the case has been exploited by some quarters to stir up longstanding negative stereotypes has worried experts.
Colin Clark, a sociology professor at the University of the West of Scotland who has studied the UK Travelling community, said: “Some of the reporting on the case has suggested that being born a Traveller is a kind of criminal apprenticeship and that racist assumption needs to be challenged.”
Chris Kidd, a social work student at Bournemouth University who has carried out research for his MA into prejudice against Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities, also said that perceptions within the police and settled communities around higher crime rates were without substance.
Kidd points to a 2016 study in one area of Romania, which demonstrated that areas with higher Roma populations had lower levels of crime. He added that stereotypes – such as the alleged theft of children by Travelling communities – were prevalent as long ago as the 19th century.
Makes me think here we have anothe Rotherham in the wings. No one wants to stand up and say they ae wrong - except Channel 4 who had the balls to do a well constructed piece on these thiving cnuts
My bold.. if this prat Kidd had bothered to really study these people, he would note that the chiefs of Roma clans/tribes are self policing and don't use the legal establishment to prosecute wrong doers within the tribe but deal with it themselves, often in a much more "robust" way which ensures no re-offending aa shown on the program about them.
Plus any non Roma are "encouraged" to move away!

Just heard on the radio that the sentences are going to be reviewed by the AG for "undue leniency."
Given that the judge apparently gave the maximum possible sentences within the guidelines it raises questions about how the sentences could be made harsher.Not quite. The AG has been asked to review the sentences
PC Andrew Harper: Attorney General to review killers' sentences
Attorney General Suella Braverman will decide by 28 August if the sentences should be reviewed.www.bbc.co.uk

Unless there is some sort of review of the sentencing guidelines or minimum time before parole?
