The Guardian reports the Serious and Organised Crime Agency is investigating the scale of corruption within the police. The day before, the Independent reported comments by Nick Hardwick, Chairman of the IPCC:
To say [police corruption] has gone away would be a very bad mistake. There are no forces that are free of corruption [...]
A glance of the cases in just the past 7 days bears this out:
- Monday 8th February 2010:
Ali Dizaei sentenced to four years for assualting a man and trying to frame him for assault. - Friday 12th February 2010:
PC Mark Bohannan passed on information to his wife’s drug dealer in exchange for free cocaine. This information allowed the dealer to escape undetected. - Monday 15th February 2010:
Martin Lansley, a ‘civilian’ police worker, stole sensitive data about Royal visits by senior royals. He also obtained officer’s passwords, station door codes, PNC information and cryptographic signatures of the Chief Constable.
There are clearly some problems within our police force and problems in particular with data security.

The Wiltshire police have retaliated to complaints I made about them ignoring my reports I made about hate crimes on my disabled 11 year old son. They retaliated by uping a small in school complaint by another pupil to a sex attack investigation against our son. They did this to discredit him and his claims he suffered over 150 assualts of bullying in 4 years. In fourt years the Wiltshire police have failed to stop a bunch of local kids making fun of his disability and perpetrating hate crimes against him. They take the details of the assualts then do nothing about it time and time again. I was advised to make a complaint about the officers. They falsly arrested me twice gave me 2 speeding offences and have been in our house over a hundred times in the past four years harassing my family. I still never gave in and continued to pursue the complaints agains them so now they are trying to get enough evidence together to charge my 11 year old with sexual touching.
All this happened at the same time as a pensioner in the village was being continualy harassed by a group of yobs. The caused her life hell and the Wiltshire police did nothing to stop them, now she has had to move out of her home of 20 years.
Police in the UK are corrupt and nothing more than a bunch of liars. We will never trust them again ever, damed pigs!

The corruption is much worse than it seems; The police have the highest number of alleged offences for any single occupation, excluding the unemployed. People need to ‘understand’ why and how so many of them (in the same place) are corrupt.
After I sacked an employee, ‘they’ arrested me on a Friday, for allegedly grabbing the employees tits’ – The employee was the 29 year old ex-barmaid daughter of a policeman; all of the questioning and charing officers were from the Father’s office at the Financial affairs department. The trial was fixed so that I had no opportunity to speak – Since I had done nothing, they gave me a 10 year dangerous persons listing so that they could pick me up when they wanted. I am still appealing the case, after 6 years, since the prosecution have indicated that they do not know what was happening in court; a Pakistani barrister and a Midlands located Judge are to blame. You may read about the case when I win it one day.

BentBritain.com is coming out soon and going global with all the undisputed evidence in black and white including photocopies of contradicting statements and discrepencies in statements which prove blatant lies ignored by the police due to the attacker being the uncle of PC Craig Taylor friends with Claire Holborn. Its going to expose this handful of bent coppers within swindon police. These are Holborn, civilian investigator Britten & a civilian female investigator called McCoy. Once this evidence has been presented and put to the public as well as the courts and senior police, there will be no other option than to follow the law and prosecute these bent police officers as well as the attacker who played the victim.

In 2005/6 a Radio wiltshire broadcaster befrended my elderly vunerable and wealthy father in law. after making himself indespensible, shopping etc he persuaded him to leave hin my wifes family home, cash …but stories of sexual interfeerence by this gay man caused terrible dammage to my family. Wiltshire Police steadfastly refused to listen infact there was no mechanism or means to report this abuse as it happend. A Radio Wilts website shows this individual talking to senior teachers in a Primary school. A report to the Justice Department has it seemed brought retrobution upon me. These people are thugs. totally undesitable.
