Sadly following a brief but serious illness our best buddy and travel companion passed away peacefully yesterday. I cannot describe how sad we are or how much we will miss this lad.

When Mrs D and I met in initial training little did I know that today would be our very last working day

hugely mixed emotions in light of current circumstances, but it has been an absolute privilege to serve. I have officially left the building, Au Revoir!

Despicable individual assaulted 2
@DC_Police
colleagues yesterday, their professionalism was commendable. Emma’s tweet speaks for itself, following today’s news it disgusts and angers me, society should collectively reject assaults on emergency workers
#unacceptable
The male who assaulted us went to Court today. He pleaded guilty and received 12 weeks in custody for each charge plus 8 weeks for other offences. He’ll serve half, so will be out in 16 weeks. This IS NOT enough of a deterrent

You appear to have proven the point

I’m struggling to see how anybody has been misled and why you seek an apology?
