  1. I've a complaint, Lancs officer. Well two actually. First was rejected, as expected. Second is on going. Not recording the offence by the officer. Now they have admitted they are investigating him. All the interactions from DPS in Lancs were designed to get the officer off, not dealing with the officer in the same way they treat the public. ie. Pure Two Tier. Now because DPS told a porkie, and I've the tape, I'm going to take it to the PCC. I made it a Schedule 3 complaint under the 2002 police reform act. That means I need the resolution letter. They really really really don't want me to get that letter and refer it for review. I've got the voice recordings and they have tweaked I have them. The actual referal I'll be quite straight. When people see officers doing wrong on social media, then an officer needs to look at the video, and the officer needs to refer. That's the law. They then need to put up a statement to that effect on their website, followed up with any action. They need to stop using the rules to cover up. Otherwise people like me who know the rules, will use them to circumvent their game.

  3.  @machineman-p5v  Most are ex coppers and in this case, doing the investigation, they will be. However, the IOPC are incompetent. For example, they have a website to submit complaints. Forwarded onto police forces. So I FOI'd them. For last year, what were the outcomes of complaints submitted via their website. We don't keep those statistics was the answer.

  4.  @Clint52279  Yes and no. When you know the game, its an easy win. Particularly on referal. The law is very clear. You MUST be given a monthly update on progress. You must [schedule 3] get a decision letter. They regularly avoid that. The later because it goes on employment files. That's why they hate naming the officers. Same reason. They just want your money and to do nothing. Might as well get something back.
