  • Use of Statistics (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 08 November 2006
    The problem is when the Chair of the Federation is saying what he says, which is so seriously strong when he says that it is being reported it is far below what really happens, underplayed for political reasons, you can play with statistics in that sense and the public does not feel that we have gotten on top of it. I think that independent statistics surely are the answer.

    No doubt you are aware of the complaints about the Met's new in-house magazine, 'The Sharp End'. It has been described by the Metropolitan Police Federation as patronising, insulting and a huge waste of money. Have you read it, and if so, do you agree?
