But, yeah, it's a kick in the teeth for the police who are not paid well anyway.

I agree with banding being very difficult to enforce different pay rises within the NHS. The banding system should be scrapped in my opinion.

I had previously been offered a job in the NHS, but it wasn't enough money for what I wanted to do so went elsewhere. Their interviewing is point scored as well so unless you say the exact right words regardless of experience it doesn't really matter. THat's my understanding anyway

I also hate the idea of not being able to do a job because you haven't got a piece of paper when you might have extensive experiencing actually doing it and insight that a lot of people wouldn't have.... but instead you have someone who goes university, gets the job and hasn't a clue. One of the reasons I didn't go University in the end. Wasn't worth it when I weighed everything up, but that's my personal opinion of how I felt wanting to go into a specific field of nursing.

I multi work with lots of professionals and the incompetance is astoundingly shocking. I love my job, but incompetance and laziness are my two biggest annoyances.... along with there just not being enough funding/services which makes my job difficult. Hands tied

Nursing is a professional registration so it has to have higher education attached; there's very robust information about how this increases patient safety. That said, there is a pretty major problem at the moment, in that we have a major shortage of health professionals (made even worse by Brexit) and - because the entry salary just isn't attractive enough - Universities are having a tough time attracting the best candidates, and so entry requirements are kept low... and "passing" requirements also low (40% ) so basically you have an awful low of mediocre skill/mediocre ability people coming through who inevitably make mediocre or worse professionals.

But they can't raise requirements because we're already in a situation where there are critical staff shortages and not enough in training as it is.

The answer though as always is money. Better funded education with proper living costs covered, and better salaries to make it more attractive as a career choice and thus more competetive.

When you can report a burglary to the police and not see one officer for weeks but walk up to a police station with a mobile phone and you get surrounded by 4 or 5 police officers within minutes, for an hour, you know there something wrong with the prioritising by the police

I'm sorry to be a party pooper however I'd guess probably a good number of those made to do this.
Would unfortunately see the bright vest as a badge of honour.

Rather than a punishment.

Nobody said it was or should be enjoyable.
Being arrested wouldn't be enjoyable.

It doesn't stop some probably seeing it as a badge of honour to their mates and others.

Don't know where enjoyable was said but it wasn't even in my post at all that word.

You simply wouldnt brag about it if it wasnt enjoyable.

Trolling is probably enjoyable to them, but I doubt they brag to their mates about doing that.

That's ridiculous. Short of actual threats of violence or peddling non-consenting porn, nothing done on the internet should be considered a "crime".

It isn't ridiculous at all.

So someone could be asking underage children online for pornographic images of themselves...... that's not a crime?

County lines are recruiting online, that shouldn't be a crime?

Children are being recruited to join terrorist organisation through video games/ online websites, that shouldn't be a crime?

I think there are many crimes being comitted online, including hate speech and people should be held accountable. They most likely wouldn't do it in real life so why let it be acceptable/do it online?

They were blocking all his attempts at reporting online death threats to him and his family. Mocking him at times.

All because he was filming.

So wether it is real or fake does not come into it. their attitude to how they deal with online threats just shows what the public are up against. Or were, before boris latest announcement.
