Don’t log non-crime hate incidents, says head of police watchdog | Police

Police should no longer register or investigate Innocent hate eventsConstabulary said the chief inspector.

Sir Andy Cooke said it took a little time to handle the events, but received severe criticism.

The innocent hate events (NchI) are recorded by the police to help assess the tensions of society and to deal with trouble. Some see this as a threat of free speaking on political right.

Hm Constabulary and Fire Department and Rescue Services Inspector Cooke, “innocent hate incidents are no longer necessary and intelligence can be collected in a different way and to make such issues easier for policing to make a different belief.” He said.

A review at the Policing College is standards for the organization’s law enforcement officers. College could not give more details.

Policing of online communities continue to cause problems. Last week, Graham Linehan was arrested for encouraging violence in public order through tweets on transsexual issues.

When Father Ted came to Heathrow, he was detained by five armed officers. Cooke said: “Was it a great public optical? No, it wasn’t.”

“I’m sure the lessons will be learned… But when these things occur, it makes the police’s job difficult, because it becomes the focus of attention.”

He stressed that he did not criticize the metropolitan police or the relevant officers. Last week, Met’s commissioner Mark Rowley said the incident was the police “between a rock and hard place ve and that the laws should change.

Cooke said: “The job of the police is to deal with guilt in the board of directors. This means dealing with some online problems and some threats to life and other issues, and serious problems there.

“This can be a thin line, and one of the reasons why we look at the policy and legislation around it brings the police to an invalid position, and as we know, if they do not always gain appreciation and common sense, high-profile mistakes are made, they become a focus and get away from good policy.

Cooke spoke to journalists as he launched the annual policing state report of the inspector. The authority said that the money is needed to finance the government: “Reforms require a significant preliminary investment and require constant commitment to be successful. They should be financed enough.”

A problem faced by the police is that the Treasury may not think that forces spend their money efficiently. The report found that it was partially correct: Although there was a recovery in the pieces of policing, there were deep -seated problems.

The report from the inspectorate, the prices of the forces said: “Many improvements are needed. 26% of our graded decisions were ‘improvement’ and 6% ‘inadequate’.

“We found that many forces are struggling to perform sufficiently in our question fields about responding to the people, researching the crime and protecting vulnerable people.

“Partly, this is due to the high demands given to the forces that often exceed their resources. However, we have found that all police forces are not as efficient, effective and sustainable as possible and that they should be. Even though the forces have limited resources, we believe that many can do better with their resources.”
