The level of fitness nationwide is worrying but within the guards it’s just beyond silly. What are we coming to.
Blame the Krispy Kreme sections in the likes of Tesco and countless petrol stations such as Applegreen and the abundance of coffee shops everywhere.
Raise the pay and tighten the fitness requirements, that should of been the solution FFS.
Well thanks to the great work of GSOC and the Irish Council for Criminal Liberties if a Garda chases a suspect and the suspect is injured the Garda will be the one charged so the fitness test probably isn’t required as it’s safer for the Garda to just stay behind a desk.
Majority are useless anyway,won’t make a blind bit of difference
Opening up the option pool for a thankless job does not help anyone.
Stop spitting in the gards’ faces by giving every violent cunt a suspended sentence. Actually lock up scum instead of giving them permanent free passes or slaps on the wrist because the judge gets a letter from the gaa.
You get caught sure and then released on suspended sentence
How about we take a leaf out of Police Academy’s book. You can sign up at not passing the fitness test and improve during training to get to the necessary fitness level during the training. It worked in the films, worse case scenario shenanigans ensue.
Decriminalisation for the nation baby!
Anything but pay them properly
It’s just the entrance requirement. There are periodic fitness tests throughout the training that trainees must pass before advancing and they’re much harder than the entrance one. That’s as well as the requirement to pass swimming and self defence courses.
They have got to be the fattest police force in Europe already
4 of them couldn’t pull a drunk ejit out of a Garda car in a video that’s going around.
