Question

Answer 1

Tell us which country you're in and you might get some answers applicable to your question. (Yes, I know this is the UK site, but at this time of the day, you never know WHO'S about !!!)

Answer 2

Which police force are you talking about? Each county in England has its own police force in London we have the Metropolitan Police and the City of London Police.

It is very unlikely that every single police force in the country would come out on strike together.

The last police strike I know of happened in Liverpool. I am not sure of the exact year but it was, I think in about 1912. What happened there was that all or most of the police officers who went on strike were simply sacked and replace with police officers from other parts of the UK.

My advice to the police is NEVER GO ON STRIKE. If you do, you'll end up jobless with little chance of further employment. Who's going to employ a sacked copper?

Answer 3

i'm plenty older than you and have worked with youthful mum and dad: First, climate you have chose to perceive it or not as family members abuse, the regulation already has; the pink marks that lasted long adequate for the police to get there and spot the pink marks shows that the frenzy exchange into significant adequate to warrant an arrest. in case you observed as the police you needed tips, making an excuse that it exchange into something distinctive than abuse undermines the police's pointers to guard you. What if the bf had a cup of espresso, a can of soda or any merchandise that could have reason greater harm or dying. you probably did not get him in hardship he positioned his hands on you in a violent way. the main complicated ingredient a youthful mom has to do is be attentive to while that's greater significant to be a mom and not a girl chum or spouse. you at the instant are a function sort on your toddlers and it relatively is not significant in case you think that they don't understand what ensue to you; they be attentive to; they won't be attentive to abuse, yet they do be attentive to what happy and unhappy is on there mommy's face even a pretend smile won't artwork. you have many inquiries to ask your self that don't comprise your bf. You got here across which you do not elect the guy that's sharing a mixed family members with you to self-discipline a newborn that's not organic and organic his; this could ensue lower back; climate that's which includes your bf or yet somebody else on your life (which incorporates family members). What if the newborn exchange into informed to not touch a boiling pot of water on the range and you at the instant are not around, the newborn exchange into warn to not touch the pot and it spills on the newborn. who's would be in charge for the harm in case you at the instant are not around handbook your newborn? there'll be diverse people disciplining your toddlers from a relative to instructors; are you going to tell them they could't. your toddlers are a precedence. if your ex bf confirmed up a 5am in the morning, that's quite disrespectful; coming from his gf while issues bypass undesirable is the two disrespectful as his push. it relatively is not love, it relatively is not even like. positioned your toddlers first and while that's time life will recent you with a mate that's deserving of you and if it this guy you may have a plan to share your mixed family members with him.

Answer 4

society is breaking down with the police, how many times have you heard the police say, our hands are tied, our hands are tied, well let me tell you, that those who tie their hands want society to collapse, they will make money out of the misery, those who manipulate the police for their own benefit are the bad guys, the police are being humiliated buy politicaly correct traitors. who have caused the police to appear to be brainwashed zombified dummis. it is time they had a strike, but not for money, for the right to be a free brithish copper woking for the country not a bunvch of corrupt politicians, using them as thugs or bullies or politicaly correct zombies they need to strike for britains benefit.

Answer 5

Hey, so many people whinge and moan about the police.

They would see a BIG, HUGE, MASSIVE difference if the police went on strike for just 24 hours!!!

Maybe they should (if they could) and then maybe the whingers and moaners would start to appreciate what they DO - and start canvassing their MPs etc. to stop putting the police on the political agenda, pay them a decent wage, stop employing the cheaper version - PCSO's and make it an offence for people to whinge about the police but then EXPECT them to wipe their arses for them when they have a bit of trouble!!!

Answer 6

Funny you should say that 'cos i remember the police driving around westminster in busses and coaches complaining about changes in their jobs, but they seem to forget that once they beat up the print workers and miners they and their 'union' would be next. As some people on here pointed out about soldiers, i thought most of were off fighting a couple of wars or something?

Answer 7

Then soldiers will have to fill the void created. Not unlike what happened when the firemen went on strike.

Answer 8

Good question.I think the government would have to turn to the military and TA like they did during the firemens strikes but it's a very interesting scenario to come up with

Answer 9

WOAH EVERYONE!!!!

POLICE FORCES ARE PROHIBITED FROM GOING ON STRIKE ... PER SE.

THEY CAN HAVE A "WORK SLOW-DOWN" OR GET WHAT IS CALLED THE "BLUE-FLU", BUT THE FEDERAL TAYLOR LAW PROHIBITS POLICE DEPARTMENTS FROM OUT AND OUT STRIKES.

No-Strike clauses are usually written into their contracts, too.

Answer 10

In the United States, I know of no where that does not have a "no strike" clause in state law.

Officers can't strike... But they have in the past all called in sick for "Blue Flu" just to make a point.

Answer 11

This is not a reasonble question, as the Police are not allowed to ever ever go on strike. It's a law of the land.
