Reported racially agrivated harrasment, what a regret- I was punished more than the offender…read more It took them 5 days to finally come, that promising to come every day with us taking time off becaus we believed they would. In teh end they didnt even arrest the offender. I complained but the sergeant who came to my house dismissed 90% of what I complained about and only took 1 minor point on board and would speak over me and read other things while i was talking to you trying to ignore me even when I told him! Then for several month they said as if the colleague who is responsible is off sick, which i heard before btw and never got back to me on any progress. Basically I was punished even more through the complaind process having to take dismissive rude sergeant at my house for which i took time off again my advice: do not let them come to your house when you complain! their aim is to minimise and dismiss the rest persuating you teh rest is not important and they visibly ignore you its like being punished more. Never accept what they call "local resolution". I

I have to say that I'm really impressed by the Merseyside Police in general…read more When I first moved to England a little under two years ago, I often had trouble finding my way around Liverpool, and I discovered very quickly that the Merseyside police are very friendly and helpful. The officers on foot patrol around the city centre never hesitate to offer directions or assistance if you need something. On several occasions I have witnessed minor incidents, or incidents-about-to-happen, and was impressed by the way the police dealt with offenders calmly and carefully. Yes, I'm a people watcher, particularly if the people are in uniform. I also know two policemen here personally, and I know they have impeccable standards and always uphold the law. Sometimes people are concerned about police being unhelpful, discourteous, or even corrupt. I want to assure you that the police in Liverpool are none of these, and if you ever have a problem while walking around the city, whether it be as major as the need to report a crime or as minor as the need to use a toilet, they are always willing to offer help.

lets just say where are they when you need them! took them ages when i lived at my mums.read more
