And is, or was, there ever any bigotry, victimisation or prejudice against ethnic minority Policemen from fellow officers, white or coloured, anymore than there was any prejudice, bigotry or discrimination etc. against white officers?  I don't think so.

Well, that's a big question, and one which is probably impossible to answer. But the groups to which you refer were established precisely because of their minority status and to avoid the perceptions of those who enforce the law as unrepresentative of those whom they serve.

No idea which is you, Yorkie. But havent times changed in photography.  Front row, the first four from the left all have their right legs over their left. The first four from the right all have their left legs  over their right  (or is it the other way around LOL).  No impromptue snaps in those days.

I will always remember the Sergeant (Blackwood) third from left who was our un-armed combat instructor.  When he was demonstrating a restraining hold he really put it on and made sure you knew exactly what you would be doing to others.   'elf 'n safety would probably prevent him from doing it nowadays!    They were great days despite all the studying we had to do.     :laugh:

In the Weekly News today:

"A man who'd breached ASBOs 26 times has received his fourth order after shouting and swearing at a mother and her four year old daughter in a Llandudno Street. Magistrates in the town heard the woman was frightened by drunken Richard Wyn Davies, 39, of Arvon Ave, Llandudno"

Obviously didn't want to give him too much publicity or maybe just a snub to the Constabulary.    ΒΆΒΆ##

Obviously those ASBO's didn't work then.

Perhaps the black-eye I saw him sporting a week or two ago, might have quitened him down a tad?
