A very concerning report. We need to start referring to the "Police Service", not the "Police Force"! They are there to provide a service to the general public and that basic principle needs to be instilled!

After footage of a Greater Manchester Police officer kicking a man in the head recently emerged, some of the subjects of the recent review into the treatment of detainees in the force said they believe officers have failed to be made accountable.

The Court of Appeal taking a very sensible approach to a difficult case.

"Had Mrs Ward not died, we regard it as inconceivable that the appellant would ever have been charged with assault in circumstances where it could not be established that she had made any physical contact with the cyclist.

Auriol Grey, 50, had her conviction overturned at the Court of Appeal on Wednesday.

Government's record on administration of justice receives another severe rebuke - this time from an unexpected quarter.
