[pdf] Policing Authority (Republic of Ireland) 4/7/2022 Report Anti-Social Behaviour in the Coronavirus Pandemic Anti-social behaviour recorded by police more than doubled early in the coronavirus pandemic in England and Wales. This was a stark contrast to the steep falls in most types of recorded crime. Why was ASB so different? Was it changes in ‘traditional’ ASB such as noisy neighbours, or was it ASB records of breaches of COVID-19 regulations? Further, why did police-recorded ASB find much larger early-pandemic increases than the Telephone Crime Survey for England and Wales? This study uses two approaches to address the issues. The first is a survey of police forces, via Freedom of Information requests, to determine whether COVID-regulation breaches were recorded as ASB. The second is natural language processing (NLP) used to interrogate the text details of police ASB records. We find police recording practice varied greatly between areas. We conclude that the early-pandemic increases in recorded ASB were primarily due to breaches of COVID regulations but around half of these also involved traditional forms of ASB. We also suggest that the study offers proof of concept that NLP may have significant general potential to exploit untapped police text records in ways that inform policing and crime policy. Crime Science Journal 4/7/2022 Research article Operation Talla Awards: Keeping people safe, and maintaining law and order during the pandemic In early 2020, when the first wave of the Covid pandemic was lapping at the UK's shores, police leaders already knew that they, and indeed the whole service, would have to respond to an unprecedented threat. The National Police Chiefs' Council and the National Police Coordination Centre put in place a plan to ensure that the police service remained resilient and had the capacity to deal with events as they unfolded. That plan was Operation Talla. The success of Talla was down to officers and staff across the country who innovated and adapted, keeping people safe, and maintaining law and order. Here are some highlights from an awards ceremony held in London to honour those who went above and beyond.

Police Professional 4/7/2022 News What’s special about the Met? A crisis in policing? You'd have thought so from the headlines last week after it emerged that six forces out of 43 in England and Wales are on the law enforcement equivalent of the naughty step. HM Inspectorate of Constabulary, Fire and Rescue Services (HMICFRS) belatedly disclosed that the Staffordshire and Wiltshire constabularies had joined Cleveland, Greater Manchester (GMP) and Gloucestershire in the 'engage' phase of monitoring. A leak (which looked like it came from the Home Office) revealed that for the first time in its history the Metropolitan Police was also in 'special measures'. It's important to point out what this means for policing - and what it doesn't mean.
