Liverpool city centre<\/a>, appears to show an officer confronting the person behind the camera, saying: \u201cDo you have a problem? Do you just want to video people? Bit noncey that, mate.\u201d The officer then turns back towards her colleagues.<\/p>\nIn the aftermath of the clip, the female officer was made the subject of an internal review after senior officers were made aware of the footage on October 26, which had seemingly been taken the night before. A complaint was made in relation to the officer\u2019s conduct.<\/p>\n
Merseyside Police released a statement this afternoon confirming the probe had concluded into the video that circulated on TikTok and other social media platforms. Officials described her remarks as \u201cunacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n
It said: \u201cWe expect and demand the highest standards of professionalism from officers and staff at all times. Our professional standards department (PSD) has reviewed the incident as the officer\u2019s comment did not meet these standards.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis matter has been addressed with the officer concerned.<\/p>\n
“The officer in question and all officers and staff have been reminded of their responsibility to remain professional.\u201d<\/p>\n
The statement from the force added how their officers were under increased pressure from members of the public when out on the beat and condemned the misogynistic abuse online directed at the officer in the aftermath of the video being circulated online.<\/p>\n
It added: \u201cLiverpool city centre is a safe and enjoyable destination for all those who visit and enjoy.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut it is not without its challenges, and our officers go into often unpredictable, dynamic situations. Increasingly officers are being subjected to people directing cameras at them as they try and go about their duties.<\/p>\n
“The comment made by the officer was unacceptable but it does not justify the level of misogynistic abuse she has gone on to receive online and we condemn any abuse of our officers in the strongest possible terms.<\/p>\n
“We welcome public scrutiny but ask that it doesn\u2019t interfere with officers doing their jobs.<\/p>\n
\u201cNevertheless we expect officers to behave responsibly and behave professionally.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The force released a statement this afternoonThe officer has been reminded of their responsibilities(Image: Getty Images) A Merseyside…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":549301,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,179,2349,274,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-549300","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-liverpool","12":"tag-liverpool-city-centre","13":"tag-merseyside-police","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115493599311490903","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/549300","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=549300"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/549300\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/549301"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=549300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=549300"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=549300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
