Just hours after she replaced Chief Constable Crompton, Dawn Copley has stepped down......because she herself is being investigated !

Why was she appointed and why did she accept, when she was already under suspicion in the Great Manchester Police ?

You couldn't make all this if you tried....its a complete shambles.

The South Yorks Police are sleep-walking to oblivion here.

The situation at SYP is farcical now.
Don't be daft. They'll never walk into 'oblivion'.
They'll never walk alone...
Question Author
The SYP are now at risk of being disbanded, as many people gave said.

They are that peculiar but deadly mixture of corruption and incompetence.

They have had the opportunity this week, of trying to recoup some pride and respect, but instead, now that they are in a hole, they still continue to dig ever deeper.
//The SYP are now at risk of being disbanded//

Are they? I hadn't heard that. So what will replace them?
Anarchy.
Question Author
The SYP could be disbanded and then merged with adjacent forces, as has happened in the past.

Naomi....you seem terribly reluctant to criticize the SYP in any way, despite the huge quantity of evidence available, and I'm not sure why.

Most seasoned right-wingers here on AB now accept the Hillsborough wasn't the SYP's finest hour. Add to that, the scandal over the Rotherham child sexual exploitation and its investigation by the SYP and you have a police force that has every appearance of being next to useless, and corrupt to boot.

You may soon be the last person standing up to support the SYP, who doesn't have a SYP uniform on.
Naomi - it is being discussed that all of Yorkshire police forces will merge into one county-wide Force to try and dispel the bad taste left by recent events.

Mikey - they really don't help themselves do they! It's as if they exist on another planet where simple common sense and an element of self-awareness simply don't exist.
Mikey, I haven't supported anyone. Please don't make it up. You'll only end up with egg on your face - again.

andy-hughes, thanks. I didn't know that.
Question Author
Andy ....adding to that list I gave earlier, of corruption and incompetence,
I should also include sheer arrogance.

What happened to the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad, could just as easily happen to the SYP, and I expect it will, in due course.

For those with a short memory, the West Midlands Serious Crime Squad was disbanded after an investigation into allegations against some of its officers of incompetence and abuses of power.

Sounds a bit familiar doesn't it !
Question Author
Naomi...by not condemning the SYP, you are in effect supporting them.

Get off the fence...the SYP has been found seriously wanting.
1. The Kent Police Report into Copley has been completed. Perhaps it exonerates her?
2. Or maybe the PCC just when with innocent until proven guilty.
3. I do not agree it proves South Yorkshire Police 'do not get it'. They were following a procedure just like any other force, whereby the Deputy takes over in an Acting capacity.
SNAFU !!
Mikey, that's a ridiculous thing to say. You haven't read my posts.
Eh ?
thought we exhausted this argument last night....Mikey is 100% correct in his summing up of the SYP and their miserable, lacking and downright dishonest activities....
Question Author
Gromit...then the procedure is found to be wanting, if the second person has to resign 24 hours after being appointed !

The South Yorkshire police and crime commissioner, Alan Billings, must also take his share of the blame in this.

A SNAFU, or Giant Cock Up indeed Minty !
murraymints, but he is 0% correct in his perceptions of my thoughts.
Question Author
Naomi....I always read your posts, whether they are interesting or not,
and I can't see anywhere in the last 3 days, where you have whole-heartedly condemned the SYP, as almost everybody else has done.
Question Author
Minty...I think we had better give up at this point...well me anyway....I have a "notes" folder that needs re-formatting !
