How the jihadis must be laughing. Completing the conquest of Britain will be ridiculously easy. Just imagine the next news story: “Knifeman rams his car into pedestrians, then gets out and stabs multiple passersby. The suspect, an Asian man known to be mentally ill, fled on foot. Officer Clive Dunning-Houndshead, on the scene, declined to give pursuit, explaining: ‘I broke a nail.'”
“Officers parade around in bear costumes, paint their nails ‘to fight slavery’ and wear high heels to ‘highlight domestic violence’ – while crime statistics SOAR,”by Chris Greenwood and John Stevens, Daily Mail, October 20, 2017:
Police chiefs were urged last night to abandon ‘silly stunts’ and get officers back on the beat.
They were told their increasingly bizarre gimmicks are undermining the job of tackling crime.
Officers were criticised for garishly painting their nails, posing for photos in bumper cars and stroking puppies for stress relief.
Others posed in bear masks and, in one force, drug squads insisted on asking cannabis growers if they were victims of slavery.
Yet shocking figures out this week showed that almost every type of crime is up, with knife offences alone rising by a quarter. Nine out of ten home burglaries are unsolved.
‘They have forgotten what their purpose is,’ said Mick Neville, a retired senior Scotland Yard detective.
‘Too many modern chief constables have got more degrees under their belts than arrests. The people in charge have simply not done the job.
‘The reason they do not investigate crime is they have never done it themselves. They are looking for cheap wins.’
Tory MP Peter Bone accused the police of ‘playing games’. He added: ‘Most people think police should be out on the beat catching criminals and deterring crime, not doing silly stunts.
‘With limited resources I am sure police officers would rather be out catching criminals than taking part in a publicity stunt.’
In Avon and Somerset, police went out on patrol wearing neon nail varnish to raise awareness of modern-day slavery.
The force posted images of officers pampering themselves with the catchline ‘Let’s Nail It’.
When the campaign provoked an angry backlash the force encouraged people who were criticised to report comments as a ‘hate crime’.
The event took place days after 21 Humberside Police officers were pictured enjoying the dodgems at Hull Fair. …

Enforcing the law is hard work. It is not work for the faint of heart or gender confused. To expect respect for the law the law must first be respectable. A male officer in heels invites ridicule not respect. The crime is engaging in bad behavior not in criticizing it. A bunch of police commanders need to be sacked for deriliction.
johan elzinga says
I’m gay and I’m certainly not gender confused. Having said that, I will add that I really don’t think this police stunt helps in any way to combat discrimination against gay people. The police aren’t protecting us. In addition, I really worry about the ability of people of other cultures to have the same chances: in the Netherlands, where I teach on a university, I found that it is difficult if not impossible to get companies to take students with names like Ahmet to do work as part of their graduate projects. Actions like the above destroy the last bit of credibility for good people trying to create job chances for citizens with a gay background, or chances for citizens of color.
Aardvark says
“…I found that it is difficult if not impossible to get companies to take students with names like Ahmet…”
That’s because when they did so in the past it led to nothing but trouble. Demands for prayer rooms, extra breaks for prayers, and a long list of other special priveleges. Not to mention the high risk of violence and/or explosions…
Terrible Teddy says
there is no discrimination against ‘gay people’ now
rickMT says
Give them a job? Don’t give them an inch. You are being used by the very people who will eventually throw you off the roof once you are no further use to them.
Carolyne says
I fail to understand the connection between being gay and being the follower of a religion which wishes to and actually does, kill gays.
Mr. Elzinga, I don’t think anyone cares that you are gay, I certainly don’t. However, I object to Islam on the basis of its promoting violence and the takeover of the world for their pedophile prophet. For a professor, you are very, very naïve.
gravenimage says
Johan–with all respect–the idea that the main problem is that Muslims are not given enough opportunities in the West is highly questionable.
The fact is that Muslims have taken being given sanctuary in the West as an opportunity to rape and slaughter us–and yes, that includes attacking Gay people.
As for the high heels, the symbolism of this is intended to draw attention to the issue of rape–it is not about being Gay.
Santa Voorhees says
If they want to fight slavery, they should kick Islam out of the country.
Britain’s police is a joke!
Dawn says
What you got to be kidding, I would be embarrassed to dawn the uniform acting like that how stupid.
Max Publius says
It’s obvious that this idiocy is politically linked to the destabilizing transexual activism promoted by today’s degraded and bored university professoriate in the western world. They half-ass believe they’re pursuing some leftwing manifest destiny, but in fact, their real model for destiny is Shaker culture, which disappeared due to its perverse logic.
These lower-ranking police are not sophisticated enough to understand what they’re up against; they think it’s just a drinking game, or good fun.
johan elzinga says
See my earlier comment above. I’m an openly gay university professor in the Netherlands and I cherish every day I am allowed to do my job and I work hard for it. But how on earth can I still be a role model for my (possible a number of gay) students when completely misplaced actions like the above police action are taken? I never heard of the term destabilizing transsexual actions until today. But I must admit that I am shocked. And, no, I honestly think I am not bored or confused, but I agree that – also in the Netherlands – alarming things are happening on left wing universities. Please note that I distance myself from this.
gravenimage says
Johan, see my post, above. This has *nothing* to do with being transsexual.
Shmoovie says
Hope this clowny policeman is happy that he will be cover boy for next issues of UK islamic magazines.
(Wondering, how does wearing nail polish bring attention to modern-day slavery?)
That retired SY detective hit it on the head: modern chiefs haven’t a clue about something they’ve not dealt with themselves.
How easy it must be to rise in rank these days, how humiliating for those who actually care about law enforcement.
Anne Smith says
The theory is that the huge increase in nail bars (shops where cut price manicures and nail varnishing are offered) is fuelled by the staff being modern day slaves. Most of them are Vietnamese and are being used as forced labour in nail bars which are a front for money laundering and drug running.
That’s the theory, anyway.
Most of this rubbish has come about because Police chiefs are totally indoctrinated with the nonsense of Common Purpose, a Marxist training scheme which has taken over all public service employees.
gravenimage says
Here in the US nail salons are often affordable businesses for new immigrants to start. I’m not saying it never happens, but I have not heard of nail salons being linked to any sort of slavery or human trafficking.
freedom says
Next they will go trick or treating, celebrating halloween as many adult workplaces do. When I was a kid, halloween was for children. These fairy police could not catch a terrorist, a shoplifter or anyone else. Potheads. Thus, tourists should stay away from this nation of fairy fools. This comment may get me put in jail as a hate crime author. I feel sorry for WW2 vets who fought for these former great nations. What a waste. Taxpayers must be livid as these adolescents parade around like fools. I would expect proper walking or running shoes to catch criminals. If you want drama, become an actor. Also all on duty police should be armed with lethal force weapons. If your tourist industry does not crash due to ineffective public protection, at least care about your normal taxpaying citizens.
Terrible Teddy says
please tell me these were just static photo-op’s and that they didn’t ACTUALLY TURN UP AT JOBS in high heels . . .
vyx says
Actually, I’m surprised that there are still native Brits on the police force. I expected it to be at least 1/2 Muslim by now.
You know, to show “tolerance.”
/just like the TSA at the airport in the US.
Benedict says
I am afraid that stunts like that make people consider converting to Islam. And maybe that’s the veiled “dawah” of the UK police force?
mummymovie says
Right?!?!?!?
gravenimage says
Why would this make anyone want to convert to Islam?
I just read this article, and it disgusts me–but it sure as hall doesn’t make me want to convert to the creed of savagery.
Benedict says
Savagery has the advantage that it conveys the dangers of living. A male police force in high heels and nail polish conveys the idea that life is a farce or a carnival. If these were the only two options – which I don’t believe – I would personally prefer “savagery” because it is better suited to wake you up to reality.
gravenimage says
Benedict, I think this is only true if your view of “reality” is that the vulnerable are to be raped and slaughtered.
I personally don’t find rape preferable to defense against rape–even if it is misguided in its silly presentation.
I suppose that there are those who agree with you, though–but these were never decent people willing to defend civilized values to begin with.
MFritz says
In a proper democracy the police is the “organ of the executive”, acting only according to the laws of the state. Demanding respect but also acting respectfully. In Britain today police are only the thugs, bullies and accomplices of its corrupt, lawless and anti-democratic government.
strong aingel says
If you invite into your country #muh dressing like their liar idol (he wore his youngest wife’s clothes to talk with Gabriel (an “angel” who hung out in caves, which for reasons I won’t go into here is not possible)), and expose your good forces to them, what else would you expect other than dire influence? What amazes (or does it) is why/how intelligent people, especially women, find the embracement of #muh values acceptable, let alone attractive. Don’t they realise this misappropriation of genetic roles is exactly what squashed the life out of women in the Dhar al Harb? Insects are on the decline (like everything else we learn) but at least one (in) sect Iis benefitting from the obvious desolation of wildlife. When will people wake up?
Aardvark says
It wasn’t Gabriel.. It was something calling itself Gibreel.
vlparker says
Careful, Robert. You have just committed a micro-aggression against cross dressing cops and now these cops will have to seek out a safe space. Perhaps the local mosque will accommodate them.
LR says
vlparker,
Haha…How insightful…
Voytek Gagalka says
If Mohammedans laugh from such police officers, why other British subjects are so terrified by arrival of such circus at their homes and parties with “threats of arrest” for offending sensibilities of that said Mohammedans? Sissies!
Tom says
Policital correctness ( yes I spelt it correctly as intended ) is killing respect for policing in the UK and with that comes an increasing criminality aning the general populous who perceive the police as becoming weak and incompetent.
Just think what this type of behaviour says to a possible jihadist convert.
I wonder about leftists says
What do you expect of the UK police, when you, being the police get ordered by your head of police and mayor and government , get ordered all the time to keep crimes under the carpet and not arresting the culprits, but having to keep everything secret. Muslims have killed policemen too, you know.
Psychologically, that is very bad for people, because they are forced to live against what they believe in,
and they are getting overstressed. When I see it, to me it is not comical, but very worrisome.
So government is playing right into the hands of muslims, They will laugh about it and say: Look at them and that is the police of the UK? Laughing stock they have become and nobody will respect them any more. And for sure not muslims who started this all, but it is NOT their fault, no person can live like that’d it shows now, you can say that they are thugs, bullies and accomplices of its corrupt, lawless and anti democratic government and they are, but their jobs have become very difficult, and they want to keep a job, they and their family have to live too and they are the breadwinners of their family and are afraid to lose their jobs, because they were not trained for this work in this way.
Big shame on the UK government and the Germans and the French and almost all the governments in Europe, and the taxpayers can pay, pretty soon you can send your police force to the psychiatrist.
And that is democracy for you !!!. THE LAW IS THE LAW and that’s were the police force is for, to keep people to the LAWS of the country !!!
Alec Rawls says
That bloke in the high heels is never going to live it down.
I wonder about leftists says
Correction:After the laughing stock they have become and nobody will respect them any more And for sure muslims who started all this, it is not the real fault of the police force, no person can keep on living this lie, it is showing now, you can say……….. Sorry
tgusa says
t will be easy as long these types are in the way.

What are they doing exactly?
Smarty says
British people are a joke they allow this and do nothing but hem and haw.
Matthieu Baudin says
“… With limited resources I am sure police officers would rather be out catching criminals than taking part in a publicity stunt…”
Some prefer to do real police work while others prefer the office life broken up by press stunts and arms length ‘meet the public’ events. The later have led the various British Police Forces away from their historic roots and have taken apart institutions that were once hallmarks of British cultural decency recognised around the entire world. Only the British Navy surpassed these forces as a robust meritocracy, but these days a risk averse culture has taken over the administrative spine of these organisations and transformed them into hierarchies rewarding clever spin and obsequies attitudes to the political elite and their fashionable ruminations.
gravenimage says
UK policemen parade around in high heels and paint their nails as jihad terrorists plot
…………………,
F*cking insane.
Except for the extremely rare case where an undercover police woman on some very specific assignment is wearing heels, there is no reason for any officer–male or female–to dress so inappropriately for fighting crime.
Yes–it would not surprise me if Jihadists are laughing their asses off.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
Would you rely on this clown to keep you and yours safe? Just another reason for forming vigilante groups.
John Forbes says
WELL AS THE RULE OF LAW HAS & IS BEING WITHELD FROM BRITISH CHILDREN WHO ARE THE VICTIMS OF CHILD RAPE IN OVER 70 BRITISH TOWNS & CITIES THE POLICE INFLUENCE IS WANING ANYWAY !
LITTLE WONDER THAT IDIOTIC STUNTS LIKE THIS APPEAR !
THE PUBLIC MUST BE SICK TO DEATH OF LISTENING TO AMBER RUDD, TERRIFIED TERESA & THE MAYORS OF LONDON & MANCHESTER CLAIM THAT : THIS IS NOT ISLAM, IT IS NORMAL TO HAVE TERRORIST ATTACKS IN A MODERN CITY , THE BOMBER WAS NOT A MUSLIM ( ANDY BURNHAM) & THEN HAVE CORBYN WHEN IS SHADOW CABINET MEMBER STATE THAT : PAKISTANI MEN IN ROTHERHAM ARE STILL GROOMING & RAPING BRITISH SCHOOL GIRLS HAVE HER SACKED – NOT MUCH CONFIDENCE IN ANY BRITISH ESTABLISHMENT AREA REALLY !
LET ALONE THE POLICE OR THE LEGAL SYSTEM & AS THEY CONTINUE TO FAIL TO DO ANYTHING CONCRETE & THE DEATH TOLL & RAPING NUMBERS OF CHILDREN RISE i WONDER AT WHAT POINT WILL THE ISLAMISTS INSIST THAT SHARIA IS THE ONLY ANSWER ???
CANNOT BE THAT FAR OFF NOW IN MANY EUROPEAN NATIONS NOW !
Anne Smith says
Rosa Klebb look-alike Amber Rudd is allowing this nonsense in her capacity as Home Secretary responsible for the Police Forces, or Services as they now style themselves.
She really is a most useless woman and a hard line Remainer, doing everything she can to thwart Brexit.
Rosa Klebb, indeed.
Thomaspj Poovathinkal SSP says
WHEN POLITICIANS are CORRUPT and COWARDLY they puncture the Police force psychologically and spiritually. DEAL with the POLITICIANS CONCERNED.

a dear friend of mine has been in the states for easily 17 years contemplated returning to England to be with her family…. her mother told her not to come back home…. because it is not the same as it once was.
imagine that .. and she is from Dorset not London…..

Wow, that is sad…
Georg says
What a disgrace.
Lydia says
A picture is worth a thousand words and this one perfectly depicts their “effectivenessless” at protecting the UK public.
Also looks ridiculous…. like the inverse of “puss in boots”!
mach37 says
I can see why UK police are not eager to go after criminals, being for the most part denied useful weapons to use against the the armed bad guys.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Libertine “liberal” criminal governments (and their enemedia pets) these days only seem to exist to say:
“Anyone who doesn’t automatically pity all criminals as fellow victims should be hated!”
Now that’s “PROGRESS!” for sure…
Dacritic says
Why is Britain becoming so stupid?
LR says
OMG…I just do not get this…I would think a strong young man like that would say, ‘No Way’…esp. while in his uniform. How about we actually go full force after criminals, and chuck the silliness?
I want cops to get good training, and be good at doing their jobs. I’m not going to care how ‘sensitive,’ he/she is when they are dealing with the criminal element. Just act according to the law, and be effective.
