Police chiefs say the plan is not 'woke' as they try to boost black people's confidence in officers.

Launching the plan on Tuesday, Chief Constable Sir David Thompson said creating an anti-racist police service "must be a priority for us".

He said he knew the plan might be criticised "as being woke or politically correct policing" but said it is instead "about good policing". Every officer in England and Wales will receive anti-racism training under the plan, which will will be put out for public scrutiny before it is updated in December.Giovanni, a member of the Voyage Youth Group in Hackney, east London, says he has been stopped and searched by police several times, despite never doing anything wrong.

The 17-year-old told BBC News: "For me personally, I have fear. When you see people acting up towards the police, it stems from fear."Other new measures in the action plan include:Efforts to recruit and retain more black police officersImprovements to the way police respond to hate crime committed against black people, including online and on social media.

Q the anti police hatred 🙄

Training? It's simple just don't be racist 🤔

Totally agree, But it should be the same for people to respect the Police and stop abusing them. Punishment isn’t strong enough when people attack or abuse the police.

The Rochdale police are already very anti racism.

The fact that people in authority actually need to be trained in anti-racism says it all.

They have been doing this for years, not so at BBC.

Please make it stop 🤦‍♂️ Racist things this week... Reading Toddlers Farms Policing

And misogyny training?

That won't work, the METPLOD are untouchable kowtowing to the Westminster Circus and letting the Aryrian Clown leader off the PARTYGATE hook

There is more anti white racism than anti black these days it seems

Can they tackle knife crime & robbery while they're at it!

After the training arrest all those that vilified our Black brothers during the Euro 2020 finals! Up untill now you haven't done anything about it!

Never was a racist thing? Only blacks think it! Sorry x I lived in Africa 18 years and never ever thought of race etc x

In this day and age.

Did they mean Rapist?

Free pass inbound!

So what do they do when they are learning to be police? Is that the chapter in the police training manual nobody reads? Why do the police of all people need training to help them be respectful and treat people with dignity? Sure this should trigger massive alarm bells?

They should concentrate on the demographic that commits most crimes. Easy

Is this just white police officers or all police officers? A conundrum for the box tickers

Meanwhile......

How about arrest people on what they done! Rather than state what colour they are! Ffs see past what they look like or what type of gender they are, if they have committed a crime, arrest them and move on, SEE PAST THE COLOUR

Good

Ffs...more woke police

You mean they never had training

Policy makers don't want police to use their legacy powers but haven't the nerve to change them So, they make justification for using almost impossible. Result = more investigations, more coppers sacked/resign, low morale, high turnover, increased crime

Make them live as a person of color in the southern US for a while.

As a member of the national team that delivered Community & RaceRelations training to the Police Service in England in response to McPherson, am not sure how l feel about this. Affecting the transformation needed will be deeply complex, and must be multi-faceted. DejaVu

What about also having respect for the police training for people in London!

That's going to help them out when someone is trying to attack them and they can sympathise with their struggle against institutional racism 🙄

They can teach monkey's too drink tea but they are still fcuking monkeys

What if non-white people commit more crimes? Addressing poverty would be perhaps more helpful, but harder and something woke culture ignores.

Waste of time, the vast majority know racism is wrong the only people who are racist aren’t going to give a shit about racism training 😂so a complete waste of money and resources

Only now?

This was probably needed many years ago….🤦🏻‍♂️🙄

Maybe they should get some anti-raping training too while they're at it. 🐗

there arn't any police in england so thats just Wales😃🙏

Any discussion or debate around institutional racism in the Met is moot in the absence of data around offending rates between groups.

here are my naked photos

A headline that should have been written decades ago. Incredible that this is a new initiative in 2022.

How about they get anti rape training. I’m staying near Clapham common atm

Met police under pressure over Johnson ‘partygate’ fines\n\t\t\tKeep abreast of significant corporate, financial and political developments around the world.\n\t\t\tStay informed and spot emerging risks and opportunities with independent global reporting, expert\n\t\t\tcommentary and analysis you can trust.\n\t\t Exactly, why the Prime Minister escaped censure? The Met were put 'under pressure' by the partisan media and pro-EU Boris-bashers to investigate Downing St parties. They've done that. They've issued fines. Yet the lib-left STILL aren't happy because they haven't got what they want. The don't want justice; they want Boris' head. what you mean is that the Labour / left / remainer elite are continuing their jihad into the realm of attacking the Met police because they didn't get what they wanted. In other words, large scale political corruption from Labour & their allies

Police admit they are 'ashamed' of racism - and pledge new zero toleranceNearly 25 years after black teen Stephen Lawrence was murdered and police were heavily criticised for racism, officers say there is still 'much to do' to win the confidence of black people, but vow: 'We will.' Yeah right How about murder? Are “the police” trying to distract people from the abject failure of the Met’s investigation into the Downing Street Johnson law breaking events by telling us they are racist? I mean - what sort of strategy is that?!
