i wouldnt want to go into too much detail for myself and it wasnt related to filming or otherwise recording any inappropriate activity ... more general performance and case management ... recourse to all the parties above proved completely fruitless and the amount of misdrection and actual lies flying around was crazy ... ultimately i had to wait for one individual to retire before the case went anywhere ... which it then did and remained on track until completion ... my advice now is not to bother complaining simply to work with what youve got ...

So your gripe is based on one experience? Without knowing any more detail it is impossible for anyone to deduce whether you have a valid complaint or not.

The point that I'm getting at here is that nobody can provide any evidence that the Police have acted improperly against themselves or others and as I have shown, the original posters link is from a sensational young woman who has told us all a load of rubbish in that you cannot be arrested purely for filming a Police officer. Google it - nobody ever has.

the above is based on my experience but i dont have a axe to grind ... im also aware at first hand of exactly the same issues in about a dozen other cases from the last few years ... and hear the same issues from trusted sources time and again ... the police tend to live in a different world from the rest of us ... one of the reasons they are so out of touch is that their complaints procedure is a closed circle and a foregone conclusion ... of course i could be wrong and they have a very evolved and transparent non-partisan complaints procedure that works most of the time ! if youve been through the process you will no doubt be left with a clear impression one way or the other ...
