The Police Federation has rowed back on its welcome for the stop & search Code of Conduct, which at first they’d mistakenly taken to be a ‘colour code’.
“To say we’re disappointed would be an understatement” said spokesperson John Bigot
“We’d even had a batch of Dulux-type colour charts made for new officers, to take the guesswork out of their racism until they’re up to speed.”
A suspicion that a citizen might not have generations of English born ancestors, dating back to 1066, will no longer be sufficient to justify a humiliating pat down and search. In the High Street. On a Saturday afternoon. In front of your children.
Despite some high-profile work with the Stephen Lawrence and Mark Duggan cases, over recent years the police have been losing ground in racist league tables to relative newcomers, such as ‘EDL’ & ‘Britain First’.
The Code won’t make their task any easier says Bigot. “It’s like the Government are kicking us when we’re down. And it’s not even as if we’re black.”
So I’m a ‘maybe’ baby! lol Never been called ‘That’ before a pat down! lol I will have to take the PAW into my own ‘brown girl in the bling’ hands.
