Gloucestershire Are Racist.
Gloucestershire Police have had to pay an applicant for discriminating against him because he was white and male.
This is yet another example of how the police just can't win no matter what we do. What is wrong with turning down a white male applicant on the grounds that we have enough of them! This is clearly demonstrated in the video shown on PC Copperfield's site today: obviously that situation really called for an officer from an ethnic minority or a woman, rather than one or two more people of just any colour. If only that force had also prioritised its recruitment strategy, the officers might not have been beaten up so badly by two or three misguided young men.
Forces everywhere should simply stop recruiting white officers. This is the only way to level the playing field, and the shortfall can simply be made up by "buying" extra police hours. Hours are available in all good local communities where standard officers will work any amount of overtime to make up for resourcing shortages. Hours can also be purchased online by sending snotty emails to the officers concerned informing them that they WILL work a twelve-hour shift the next day.
Another option might be to utilise the vast resource of civilians at forces' disposal. As shown in a Freedom of Information reply I received from Bedfordshire Police, while only 30% of police officers are female, about 75% of support staff are. By simply training some of these women to be police officers and taking some men off the streets and into offices, the male/female ratio of most forces can be equalised.
Things could be so simple if we just didn't complicate them!

I imagine this demonstrates how desperate forces are to look politically correct, but it is very worrying when it goes to these extremes.

I was told in my diversity training that modern diversity policies are supposed to 'actively encourage any under-represented group to apply whilst not giving a clear disadvantage to any applicant who reflects the majority of the existing workforce'... But the police force still have Ethnic Quotas that they are required to meet in the next few years.
Talk about getting stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Off on a slight tangent. Have you ever noticed the number of male primary school teachers there aren't?
I don't notice any 'active encouragement' for men to go into primary school education.
Keep up the blogging, I now check your site almost as often as the BBC's... If you could throw in some football news you'd beat them hands down :-)

Perhaps WPC Bloggs, you would feel different if you were a white male, no?
Not employing a person because of their race is racism, end of story.
He should have got ten times £2,500, as it would put a stop to any Police Force who even thinks about being racist in their recruitment procedres.

Sarcasm, noun: remarks that mean the opposite of what they seem to say and are intended to mock or deride.

And everyone knows that woman police officers are, for sme mysterious reason, more able to defuse dangerous situations than the man variet is. So more woman police officers means no fights at all!
Just another way that women are exactly the same as men, except when they are better.

The ordinary public don't give a flying f*&% who catches the criminals SO LONG AS THEY CATCH THE CRIMINALS.
You know what? If there is a lesser pool of qualified female Nigerian one-legged jugglers than there is of qualified white males WE DON'T CARE!
I am writing from Northern Ireland and here the ordinary citizen has had to put up with the enshrinement, IN LAW, of religious discrimination in police recruitment.
EVERY other employer in NI would be fined heavily for practicing religious discrimination in recruitment but in policing it's mandatory!
By this warped law, 50% of those employed MUST be Roman Catholic and because of their traditional reluctance even to apply (the IRA kills all police officers but they particularly like killing the few Catholics in the force) that means that THOUSANDS of fully qualified non-RC's have been turned away after passing all the tests.
As a result of all this PC cr*p - a sop to Sinn Fein/IRA terrorists (and their scum electorate) for their "ceasefire" - our police service is seriously understaffed and guess what? The criminals are having a field day and the citizens, like me, are getting fu@£ed over, day and daily, by scumbags.
Recruitment needs to be about about candidates' capability. NOTHING, BUT NOTHING else matters to the ordinary, decent citizens who are forced to pay for it.

I am very concerned about the issue you raised. The under representation of males in polce support staff is inded a serous issue. I look forward to the setting of targets for male recruitment and for job advertisements to include the usual equal opportunity employer paragraph along with "applications are especially welcomed for males for this post" We must aim for a 50/50 gender ratio in police support staff.
23 September, 2006 10:54
Officers should be recruited on their suitability for the post and nothing else. The fact of colour or gender should NOT even be considered. I am aware that Avon and Somerset have paid white male candidates compensation for being turned down sue to their colour.
And of course the federation warned them about this before it happened.
And they chose to ignore the advise. What a load of morons

Gloucester Police seem to be making the news a lot don't they.
www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=406362&in_page_id=1770
"in June, officers supplied a Kentucky Fried Chicken bargain bucket and cigarettes by hydraulic lift to a suspected car thief who had been cornered on a roof and refused to come down." amongst other stories in the above link.
