Revenge

There is nothing more cruel than the bitter revenge of an ex.😈

What do you need a thermal camera for if you want to record somebody sunbathing? :-)

In the early seventies 'black light' the infra red version of Nightsun was introduced. It required trialling before it could be released to service so it had to be flown and operated extensively in the dark.
This was in the middle of July in Southern England.

We would take off at about 23.00hrs and head south from Odiham towards the downs and the coast to avoid street lights etc. The RHS pilot and operating crewman would be on goggles and the LHS safety pilot would monitor what the helicopter was doing.

The number of times the random scanning would pick up a couple in embarrassing positions were uncountable and the crewman and RHS pilot would be goggling the scene with the LHS pilot pleading to have a go at the goggles.

Meanwhile down below.
"There's a helicopter up there!"
"Don't worry, they can't see anything; it's dark."

Ahhh, back in the Bad Old Days it was only the observer in the back seat with the gyro-stabilised binoculars who got to see the naughty bits.

Whatever next?

Early 1994 Bacon Butty scandal surfaces. Merseyside Police confirm investigating allegations of cops having been fed by grateful shop owners.

In other news, Lancashire ask Cumbria to look into allegations that officers accepted a free ice cream on Blackpool beach sometime in 1976 heatwave.

But, coming straight after the Hillsborough findings and the Rochdale abuse fiasco, it is more negative press that I suspect the South Yorks Police could well do without.

Anyone got the address of the nuddie sunbathing page 3 model? ;)

airpolice 11th May 2016 14:46

Crab, the timing might be everything here.

This is a Police service which employed a Media Officer on a salary of more than £1,000 a week to place news items with a favourable slant in the press, to skew the force's image in relation to Hillsborough.

I suspect that they might have spent the last week scouring the offices, looking for a story to show that they are being hard on bad cops.

That was the original address of the South Yorks Police air support base, don't think she'd be there! ;)

Probably, yet it won't be publicised ... unlike the names, faces and addresses of all the accused, which beggars belief in these times of heightened security :ugh:

Isis: 'Every UK Police Officer is a Terrorist Target' Warning


Isis: 'Every UK Police Officer is a Terrorist Target' Warning

Police officers have been told to be vigilant "for their own personal safety" following a rise in the terror threat from "substantial" to "severe".

The Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) offered advice to 130,000 officers across the UK as the threat towards police has "heightened".

The advice was also given following the arrests of four people in London on suspicion of being involved in the commission, preparation or instigation of terror acts.

Whitehall officials have said they believe the men may have been planning an "Isis-related" terrorist attack in the UK.

National Policing Lead for Counter-Terrorism, Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley added: "The threat level to police officers and staff has been heightened, but we are used to confronting risk and danger, this is what we do on a daily basis, and we are well trained.

"We are informing our officers and staff of the heightened risk and reminding them to remain vigilant and alert to any possible dangers. We are asking them to follow existing policies and good practice. Measures are being put in place to increase the vigilance of officers and staff.

Airpolice - yes, point taken but, when all the stories show your officers in a bad light, giving more of the same isn't really a good news story - the pursuit of Cliff Richard might be more in that vein.

I don't think the flying voyeurs need to be particularly concerned over the court case. Here is the 'punishment' deemed appropriate for tasering a blind pensioner carrying a white stick.....

Has S Yorks been expanded to include Rochdale?

Haven't heard much of this and you may notice, no addresses published in this case ...!

Acting South Yorkshire police chief steps down over conduct questions | UK news | The Guardian


The acting chief constable of South Yorkshire police, who on Wednesday (27 April) replaced David Crompton following the Hillsborough inquest findings, has stepped down after it emerged her conduct at a previous force was being investigated.

South Yorkshire police force has been left without a chief constable for the second time in less than 48 hours after the Hillsborough inquest findings, as it emerged that its deputy chief constable Dawn Copley was appointed despite having declared that she was being investigated over her conduct with her previous force, Greater Manchester police (GMP).

Copley’s conduct is being investigated by GMP, which confirmed “an independent investigation was undertaken by Kent police following a number of allegations”. According to reports this involved a group of senior officers who were accused of “corrupt practice”.

Copley joined South Yorkshire police force in September as deputy chief constable. Prior to that she had been assistant chief constable at GMP since 2010, where she was also head of the force’s professional standards board.
