I find it sinister that a our PC society requires a candidate seeking selection to Kent Police has to declare if he/she is a member of The BNP. To do so, means instant rejection! The assumption, based on no evidence, is that a BNP member is automatically a racist! I am worried about the state of democracy and freedom in this country when membership of a legitimate political party means automatic exclusion from serving society as a Constable. Teachers and vicars are not precluded by any legal restraint that I am aware of from following their calling because they are members of the BNP; why should discrimination occur within the Constabularies?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25954340.post-84446205431383429372008-11-21T18:24:00.000+00:002008-11-21T18:24:00.000+00:00The suspension of BNP member police does seem in c...The suspension of BNP member police does seem in contravention of Magna Carta. That no man shall suffer set back save through trial before his peers.<BR/><BR/>The BNP fiasco occurred in the week Hampshire Police had to admit they have over forty serving officers who have serious criminal convictions (dishonesty, violence and firearms offences)<BR/><BR/>In Thanet we know that one officer convicted as a criminal liar was allowed to continue serving and even made schools liaison officer (so Thanet children could learn that if you want to get away with it be a policeman)<BR/><BR/>Kent was amongst the top for officers convicted of offences but amongst the lowest for complaints recorded against officers. This was the context in which Jack Straw accepted the need to change police complaints law and create the IPCC. To end the power of Chief constables esp Kent, to abuse, to veto complaints against officers.<BR/><BR/>So crocodile tears all round re BNP ? But still not a word of condemnation for holocaust denial activity to pseudo military cadets in Kent ?<BR/><BR/>And no police inquiry re BNP expulsions of members in Kent for taking part in paramilitary training in the 80s ?<BR/><BR/>I think that Kent Police might find it worthwhile to check the published list to rule out a coincidence in an open murder inquiry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
