Uplift will almost be done by 1st September so another 6 months left by that point…there’s no clear indication of how many new recruits there will be post uplift for each force and that cost will likely be raised via council tax police precepts by PCC’s…so more increases likely
Officers @STN_Airport deployed yesterday to ducks that had sadly been hit by a passing vehicle. Thankfully one of the ducks survived and airport 'old bill' were able to take it under their wing and look after it. It has a broken leg but is now in safe hands and on the mend.

I'm sure there are officers who are due to retire in the next two years that could be dedicated into this process with trading standards

Is #Uplift a false economy? #PFEW22 hears from trainer who says new recruits are using the programme to develop their own careers & have no intention on staying in the service. “Some students state they are there to get paid-for degree and then look for roles outside policing.”

But obvs hunt for successor is even more fraught than it might otherwise have been, given the Met is investigating the Prime Minister and his staff themselves

Concerns about Met leadership are not new, actual move to the exit seems quite rapid - a govt source says 'I think it’s a shame to see the mayor playing politics with policing.'
