WPC demands £50k from petrol station owner after tripping over a kerb while investigating a break in

[Sandman]

If this case is proven then it will make a laughing stock out of the job

description of police officers, when police are called to an incident, the

caller will have to get them to sign a disclaimer, before doing their job.

On sky news they interviewed  the garage owner, he was with her when she tripped, she immediately got up and continued walking around the property, that was 6 months ago.

 

This officer was obviously unfit for duty at the time and hid her mental condition when she applied to join the police, she'd be better suited sweeping the streets where she can use the broom for support.

[jaria]

Her complaint was that she tripped over the Kerb because she didn't see it and then went on to say that it was dark. I was reading some of the claims that were made in the NHS the other day . Stupid in the extreme but who introduced this compensation factor into our culture.

[Jonksy]

Maybe if the fat bitch lost some weight Sandy she may be able to lift her foot high enough to clear a NORMAL HEIGHT kerb..

WPC Kelly Jones, 33, (left) has launched the health and safety claim against Steve Jones, 50, (right) the owner of the station in Thetford, Norfolk, (bottom) where she tripped on a 6in kerb while investigating a possible break-in. Owner Steve Jones, 50, said he is 'incredulous' after receiving a three-page letter from the officer's lawyers claiming he 'exposed' her to 'an unnecessary risk of injury'. Keith Vaz, chairman of the powerful Home Affairs Committee, said: 'This civil claim will have huge implications for every citizen if they call police.' 

Keith Vaz, chairman of the powerful Home Affairs Committee, is now demanding urgent Home Office guidelines on the issue.

He said: ‘This civil claim will have huge implications for every citizen if they call police out to their premises to help them in an emergency.

The letter that Mr Jones received from WPC Jones's lawyers Pattinson Brewer last week

[Briar]

I guess anyone, even a female policeman, can try to take someone to
court to try to squeeze money out of someone else whom they want to
blame for them falling over their own feet in the dark.

What is much more important is that she doesn't get away with actually
being awarded her claim. The consequences if she were to suceed is
better not thought about. I suppose it will be up to a Jury. Let's
hope they use their common sense.

Why dont we all wait and see what comes of this suit ?

When you need them, like this garage man did, they're useless.  They don't prevent crime or catch criminals and then they try to financially ruin you.
If you have so much as a pebble or shrub in your garden, take the loss from the burglary - it'll cost less than calling out a copper.

[Jonksy]

Exactly Jane I suppose kerbs are now going to be part of their risk assessment they are as much use as a chocolate fire-guard.. 

[tinman]

Before calling them out you'd better make sure your house is idiot and
child safe jon.

Police in £20million injury claims bonanza

Bunch of over paid parasites.

[jaria]

I think millions have a positive story Jane

[jaria]

Have you checked out the claims from the staff of the NHS Tinman . Who is responsible for this benefit culture.

[Jonksy]

Thatcher era created culture of benefit dependency, says study..

THE legacy of unemployment during the Thatcher era has left Britain overly dependent on benefits, a right-leaning think tank warned yesterday.

Civitas says that neither Labour nor the Conservatives have dealt with the problem since the height of unemployment in the 1980s.

One in three households across Britain depends on state benefits for at least half its income, according to the report.

Civitas says the figure is far higher for single-parent homes, with 61% relying on state support compared with 9% of two-parent households.

The report, in the current issue of Civitas Review, states that the level of households dependent on benefits was as low as 5% in the 1960s but rose during the 1970s and 1980s, particularly because of the mass unemployment of the Thatcher era.

[jaria]

Sounds like a load of rubbish the clear facts show the state of the country when she took over and when she left. She got people off their arses and has never been forgiven by them for doing so

[tinman]

So basically much of what Britain now reps was sown in the Thatcher
era. Something many knew already jon. Thats why the voters didn't
want them back in 2010.

I wonder what the 1.4 million unemployed in 1978 lived on if not benefits.

[Briar]

More or less what one would expect, Tinman. You can't even use a
copper to "spend a penny" these days - it is either "free" but filthy,
or they charge 5 new pee.

Sometimes I wonder whether all this "progress" is really worth it -
especially times like now when it all seems to be going in the wrong
direction !

You mean the 800.000 (your lots figures) before the hag converted that to nearly 4 million..

Those were again employed by inefficient and overmanned industries that the country could not afford to subsidise plus of course we were the sick man of Europe proving that Socialism has no idea of value for money. Just spend it and let someone else sort out the mess.

This woman's Chief Constable was on TV news last night.  He said that this was unexpected from a police officer.  Police Officers, he said, accept when they take the job that they may risk life and limb defending the public from crime.

She tripped over a ruddy KERB and he talks about risking life and limb.  Really, you have to laugh.

I swear, the very next cop I see walking - tho that may take decades - I shall offer to help cross the road in case he trips up the kerb.

[jaria]

Do you mean all of them Jane?

[jaria]

Bloody laugh AFFA she got the welfare dependent s off their arses. That why they actually hate her so much. The. Golden legacy unlike Brown and Blair's as you call it took us from a bad situation ie the sick man of Europe whereas your heroes did the opposite

Are you replying to my last post Jar?  If so, then what can you mean by 'all of them'?  I truly cannot recall the last time I saw a genuine police officer walking on his own two feet but, if I ever see one in the future then yes, I shall offer to assist him or her to negotiate any kerb in the vicinity.  After all, most kerbs in this country are owned by the local council, and the last thing we'd want is cops suing councils for not having warnings signs on all kerbs because it's local council taxpayers who would have to shell out the compensation, isn't it?

As for calling them out in the event of a burglary, no way - I have a gateway, shrubs, a walled courtyard and a step up into the house which could all cause a cop to trip over his or her own feet, and I'm fairly sure my insurance wouldn't cover 30 grand for a stubbed toe.

[Trog]

:Just like the ones I knew who were stabbed in the heart and survived,
had a starting handle hit on the head by a shop breaker and lost his
job as a concequence, another who ended up in St Thomas with a
fractured skull, another that had his finger bitten off, and another
that had his front teeth knocked out with a crow bar. Lazy lot of
malingerers.

[jaria]

No one Jane can possibly approve of this police persons behavior , certainly not I but it is part of the compensation culture that is certainly not confined to the Police Force. I think its encouraged by the quangos who achieve happiness by giving public money so generously for such minor accidents. I read of impossible claims greeting huge awards. Wasn't there a typist who strained her wrist and got half a million ? Compare that with a soldier that had lost his whole are facing the enemy.
My problem is that whilst I can understand that some coppers do have an unpleasant complex and couldn't go on to say they all do. In any case even if that are all like that someone has to do their nasty job.

[jaria]

One in five households in the UK had no one that worked at the end of Gordon Browns tenure ? Jonsky

[Jonksy]

Yes REDUCED from 1 in 3 under the hag and major..Glad to see you can still recognise sucess...as you dont see any from your own lot..

[jaria]

Don't expect much success when left such an impossible task Jonsky. IF your figures are reliable and there's no back up at least the economy was in better shape and more jobs available but it would show that The
Labour Nanny state was alive and well when jobs were available.
Btw is it true that the BNP are calling UKIp racists?

Don't try and be clever thicko you have made a mess of it. No I'm not going to repeat myself explaining the facts to you. You have proved its a complete waste of time.
