Interesting. Of course Nick Adderley, head of Northamptonshire Police, couldn’t state the bleedin’ obvious, that women are disproportionately the ones “quitting within weeks”. He even cites a man quitting, to hide the point:
Mr Adderley gave the example of one 19-year-old who left after just three days after saying the job wasn’t what he expected.
Other extracts:
There has been intense controversy over plans to turn policing into an all-graduate profession, with fears it will exclude older recruits including former soldiers.
Figures show two thirds of Northamptonshire’s officers have less than two years’ service and 88 per cent less than four years…
Earlier this year the police and crime commissioner for Lincolnshire joined calls for the plan to be axed.
Marc Jones said he had spoken to officers who claimed they would ‘rather have a former soldier next to them’ when dealing with a nightclub fight than someone with a ‘2:1 in expressive dance’.
