If they switched priority to the public, police stations would be blown up left, right and centre, it seems. You know ... in the current climate ... I'm sure you understand.
Irony is that speeding is a criminal offence and they solve plenty of those every day, with a camera. Even better for everyone, there's no victim! Double win.
It is worrying. Someone has got them so paranoid, they've barricaded themselves into their stations and the public can look after themselves. It's patent that the public is the target for terrorism, not police stations.
i was outside the police station in penzance last year and there was a couple of people at the yellow phone, they said they had been there for half an hour for an officer to come out to help them and had used the phone about 5 times and they were getting no help. so i decided to help them out. I took out my phone and started recording the side of the station where their cars were. within about 2 minutes, there were 3 officers there trying to interrogate me. i told them I didn't need their help and i would not be answering any questions but that they should be doing their job and helping the people that they were ignoring at the front door. they tried getting me to talk for a few minutes longer but when they realised that I wouldn't talk to them or go away until they helped the people who actually needed help, they reluctantly went over to speak to them. the couple were very grateful for my help abut the police looked like I had just spat in their faces or something 🤣
Yeah I've heard it since I was a child in the 70s. I have some memory of a FILTH STATION being egged. I wonder why the M S M. Are not reporting all these attacks on the FILTH STSTIONS ? I think they must have it knocked into them at training that they are at war with the law abiding public and to protect their FILTH STATIONS at Al cost.
🤣Part way through he seemed to behave as if you'd agreed to his directive, then realised you hadn't and couldn't get away from you fast enough. Great work as always AB, thank you.
I watched your video as I used to live in Watford. When you entered the Police Station it reminded me of the one occation that I went into the station. My bike had been stolen from the Train Station; this is just down the road from the Police Station. I went to report the theft. My experience was like being in an episode of Faulty Towers. The Policeman on duty could not hear me through the thick safety glass, he could not use either of the two computers available, he complained that neither worked as he thumped their keyboards and he was generally unhelpful and useless. He also said that that the theft may not be their concern! He ended up writing a Police report number with a pencil on a piece of scrap paper. All this protracted exchange took place as two men were seated in the room discussing their poor experience with Watford Police. Hopefully, things have improved.
Can't blame them entirely as the lack of funding, training and priority of our police and health services is disgusting. Politicians too busy lining their own pockets and taking us for mugs.
they all well aware people will be seeking some revenge at some point... the only ppl that seek revenge are the ones who thought the police handled things unfairly ... or they were innocent and were stitched up.. even gangsters wouldn't hold a grudge against the police back in the day if the attention and the arrest was legit
Strange how these anti government terrorists NEVER attack the ones who protect them, how easy would it be to attack a police station if they wanted too…Yet!!! It never happens. How bizarre..
AB made a brilliant point about of you call the police they take so long to get to you where as if the police called other cops they will be there within minutes
I guess if someone wanted to do harm to a police officer, they could just park outside a police station and follow that officer home. How are they going to stop that by harassing photographers? These people are insane!
Your right it's all about them and their safety. The terrorist threat is a non argument it's been going since the 70's and it's at the lowest state on the scale.
It isn't the lowest on the scale, as there are 2 levels below Substantial, but it is the lowest it has ever been since this scale was introduced. These pigs are a joke either way.
We all know the pantomimes they have tried to sell us over the years made the big news headlines for days in a row been exposed to bits by many a terminated channel on this joke platform.
I’m a pissed off criminal with revenge on my mind. But I’m lazy and can’t be bothered standing outside the police station to follow the copper home in his car. Thanks AB, you saved me so much time.
Ab, you identified and made a very good valid point. They respond so quick to protect themselves and their friends. If a member of the public had their bag snatched, they wouldn't arrive until much later. They give preferential treatment to their own. Keep auditing and most of all.... keep laughing !
How embarrassing! The little wilted egos of the Hi-Vis Militia are so easily exposed. AB, you iluminate their absurdity with less than a dozen words. It's extraordinary, and also very saddening. You're the best, mate.
"How do you know what my gender is!!" Absolutely Class AB. Did you see the name of the lane that Watford Police Station is on!! - Shady Lane!! - That figures!!
They definitely been watching too much telly. Who tf is going to want to find out where pc sally briggs from Watford police station lives? The teenager who’s eighth of weed she confiscated? The auditor she hassled? Give me strength 🤦♂️
This is my new favourite RU-vid comedy channel...this man is true gangsta man of the land putting every bobbylon policeman in his rightful place which is in the hands of the public .....how may you serve me Mr policeman....
So let me just recap. They rushed out to tell him he's legally allowed to film but he wants to make him aware that police officers' personal cars are in an open car park that can be seen by any Tom, Dick or Harry walking past and that a police station has never been targeted by terrorists, but he doesn't want to argue about it. That's where your blood, sweat and tears via your tax money is going folks - to fund this absurd twattery.
@@notalldisabilitiesarevisib4330 The boy copper needed the female copper for back up , because he was scared on his own , for a dangerous man with a camera. 😂😂😂
It is nothing short of astonishing; the way people react toward an individual in public with a camera. Especially the reactions of law enforcement officers, who should know the law. It is not a crime to film cars in public, you foolish, ignorant cops. Great work, as always, AB! Keep fighting the good fight. We stand with you.
Madness how quick they show up when there's a camera. When I lived in my old house I found a baseball bat and a knife hidden in the corner of my garden. When I informed the police they said they'd send someone out. Still waiting, 9 years and counting 😂
Am so glad you pointed out how fast they came out and u are so right, when it’s about them they are there so fast but if it’s one of us we are made wait weeks at times it’s a joke. Keep up the good work AB ;-)
AB you’re brilliant! Keep up the great work of exposing these misinformed officers for not knowing their place in a public - free to film place. Well done! Your vids are very informative. Bless.
@@jamescreek4875 our surname isn’t a popular name, Bernard with an E is, but not Barnard with an A. Unique surname Barnard bros goes better I think lol 👍👍👍
Unbelivable the police explaining exactly WHY there is a massive disconnect between the general public and the police ,that is growing at an alarming rate
I was fascinated by the girl she never said much but she looked like she was having an anxiety attack either that or she just wanted to get out of the cold
It seems to be the same everywhere. We have few auditors in the Netherlands, but those that film a police station get talked to in minutes. And they are very fast with forcing you to ID under threat of arrest. But when you want to report a crime, it can take weeks. (A rape victim was told to come back in two weeks) About 90% of all reported crimes will not be solved. But write something bad about police on the interweb and you'll have four officers at your door.
Hebben jullie in Nederland ook een ID plicht zoals wij in Belgie? Ik volg al jarenlang allerlei first amendment auditors , en de situatie in de USA ligt toch enigszins anders qua rechten dan in onze landen. Je kan nooit anoniem filmen in Belgie , als de politie het recht heeft om je ID op te vragen , anders dan in de meeste Staten in de VS. Wij hebben geen 1st amendment wetten. Hoe doen de Nederlandse auditors het? Ik heb geen weet van Belgische auditors, ik heb er zelf al aan gedacht om het te doen, maar gezien de totaal andere situatie hier heeft het weinig zin denk ik.
@@frankv.2124 Iedereen van 16 jaar en ouder is verplicht een ID te dragen. Een agent mag altijd om een ID vragen, maar je bent het alleen verplicht te geven wanneer je verdacht wordt van een misdrijf.
Basically they were called by a colleague to tell them someone was doing something they don't like, so they came down in a flash to try and stop you doing it because they don't like it... But when they don't get anywhere they change their story by pretending they're worried if you're ok... and we pay for this...?
Yo AB @Auditing Britain Glad to see you are still making videos. I was thinking I wonder what's happened to AB, I haven't seen a video for aaaaaaages, searched for AB and found Google unsubscribed me grrrr :( . On the bright side now I have a load of great AB videos to binge :)
Well done as always! When they say, “All I’m going to ask…” interrupt with, “sorry, but before you ask, will you be asking whatever it is just once? Twice? Thrice? Or will you be asking the same thing repeatedly?”
I think AB should genuinely go on an audit with an actual bingo card with daft copsplaining terms 😂 and just tick them off in front of them as they interrogate him and shout bingo at the end 😁
If they are that worried about their private car being filmed it might be best to cycle to work catch a bus or park in a paid car park like everyone else has to pay and park.
I used to train Army Cadets,, and never have I heard the young cadets speaking with the immturity of this cop. One of my cadets became a very high rank police officer. I wonder what he thinks
Your spot on AB they are just thinking of themselfs. Pitty they can't show as much concern for or safety . And they know your right that's why they didn't want to carry the conversation.
I never get bored with AB. He always gives us a master class. But I’m bored shitless with every police cunstable that seem to be obsessed with an imaginary law that they believe should prevent citizens from filming a car registration plate, simply because the car owner is a cunstable. And how is it possible that there are still cunstables out there that: 1. Don’t know about the home office policy regarding informing the public as they switch on their body worn camera. 2. Think they have the right to demand ID from a citizen just for photography. 3. Misuse and abuse section 43 of the terrorism act, in what always turns out to be a failed attempt to get an auditors ID. 4. Try to convince auditors that if they video a policeman’s private vehicle it will result in that cunstable being tracked and targeted, despite the fact that no one outside of the police can access the DVLA data base and it’s never ever actually happened. 5.Think they can demand to see the pictures you’ve taken or confiscate you’re camera without a court order. 6. Misuse section 5 of the public order act leaving out the part about using threatening or abusive words or behaviour or disorderly behaviour but concentrating of the bit about alarm and distress. 7. Fail to identify themselves on many occasions. 8. Treat citizens as if the law says we are all guilty until proven innocent. 9. And do all this in the knowledge that every they say and do will be on RU-vid for ever and ever, meaning that as they grow old and retire then eventually move on to that big police station in the sky, we will still be able to watch them making utter fools of themselves and have a good laugh. The average British copper seems to have the IQ of a MacDonald’s quarter pounder with cheese. 🙄
@FANNY ON MY FACE The guy who cant speak english properly and belongs in the middle east? and could be charged under the terrorist act for his illegal filiming!
Well said AB, i get assaulted at work and not obe officer bothers to show up, they gave a reference no. because they are short staffed yet when they feel a little scared they have plenty of officers who can come to their rescue, the police are a joke who are only worried about protecting themselves.
Police have finally realised that photography isn't criminal or a crime. Well done AB, the most efficient, effective, education, of a nation of 250k + Police officers, who thought they knew it all less than 20 months ago.
Nuff love for coming my bro. Did you take a picture of the side road called shady road. Come visit us in bushey next time ur here. Come get some food my bro
You are one of those whom fear the police the most: An intelligent well-informed citizen who knows his rights very well. Better informed than the police would like to allow...😁
The way you kept repeating his "does that make sense" was absolute brilliance. They weren't the worst. Thanks for another entertaining video my friend.
"I'm going back in, and that's that". What a professional ending to a discussion he was struggling to find no answers for. Staff should still have to use the yellow telephones to report incidents. May get to see how long a genuine response takes then?!
AB, hope you read this , I believe you are a good guy. If I am welcomed to someone’s house , I do not find and grumble about their shortcomings. These are servants of the same Government who welcomed you to their country many years ago. I would be just grateful . Your own homeland is in deeper trouble on the same issue. You have a gift , go back to your country and use it. Your own people need it now more than ever. It may cost you your life but you will be a blessing and Allah will be glorified.
I definitely think you should file a complaint for being misgendered. UK police might not want to take action when it comes to real crime, but being misgendered, that's something they'll take on all the way. Someone would get fired over that.
Everyone says the police don’t fight crime but this is not true at all. The London police do a very good good at catching killers, they have a very high murder solving rate. If the police weren’t doing their job putting these people behind bars the streets would be a lot more violent and many more people would die. The gang members who these police catch are the type of people to kill over end over till they get caught.
