Yes a shame he could not show that aggression to the opposition on the pitch instead of female officers.

He spat on the floor though something that even the copper admitted after he had calmed down!

Yes if you watch that whole scene again the copper makes up a story , nicks the bloke rembers there are cameras and changes it again.

After the miners strike the reputation of the police was left in tatters and all the regular stories about police misbehaviour now just feed into that.

The biggest problem in the Police is not that there are a few bad coppers but the culture that freates them an dlets them think they can get away with anything

I must have watched a different program to you, as for the male officer the threat of assault i.e spitting is assault (sec 39 ) the fact that its blood and spit/saliva is a disgrace if someone spat at you what would your response be ? given that anyone could have a contagious disease.


As for the culture of the police " THEY THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH ANYTHING" what planet are you on ? do you know the law of this country ?how do you know what they can get away with or are you just surmising because your unsure ! in a previous post I stated one thing the police are watched night and day by there own !

The program achieved what it set out to do place people in a bad light and sell advertising and that's what it did !

as for the reaction of the people of Wakefield I like many feel ashamed of the dim witted drunken s who take up time with petty squabbles, while the police are reacting to drunken stupidity the are not proactively dealing with other crime and we are paying for that in our taxes.

Its only my opinion

Every incident he was involved in, that they showed, he escalated them to a place that was not needed. The funny thing I noticed was, that the incident where those 2 idiots got arrested and his lady Pc got one in the face, when you pause the incident, when it happened, it was actually him that had his hand wrapped round her face pulling on it and actually caught her in the nose.

I would be very annoyed if someone spat at me I also wouldn't find it particularly nice if someone spat on the floor in front of me but I don't think it would provoke rage in me. Now appreciate what the police have to put up with and the program highlighted this however the lack of control shown by the officer in this situation did worry me. The guy clearly did not spit in his face but as he dragged him across the road he kept repeating that he was a dirty this and that for spitting at him. When he reached the van having calmed down he then decided he was a dirty so and so for spitting on the floor.



I totally agree and can understand why the coppers get fed up of drunken idiots carrying on and causing bother. What the program did show was that if you listen and walk away then that's fine but it's the totally morons that can't let it go who get locked up.

Thats called editing

If you really think you saw all of the incidents portrayed you are sadly deluded

Maybe they could but it must get to them dealing with halfwit pondlife, like many have said you don't get arrested for doing nothing and if you are smart enough to walk away its not a problem.

Only the STUPID ones cause issues in Wakey and other towns on a night out, lets face who really cares about them, take the two toe rags the other night, no great loss if they don't wake up in the morning is it.

I think the respect for police doesn't stop there it go further, teachers, neighbours, the older generation all part of the new era and the do gooders IMHO

having watched the program on you tube it just goes to show the direction that we are going, years to come the booze binging will catch up with us all me included
