News Shopper 26/5/2020 News More Than A Trivial Pursuit: Public Order Policing Narratives and the ‘Social Media Test’ Social media has transformed public discourse on policing and the contest of control over the police image. This article draws on original, empirical research to conceptualise the phenomenon of the ‘social media test’ – the evolution of social media into a legitimate measure of police performance. Through in-depth interviews with police and non-police respondents the article maps the genealogy of, and provides perspective on, one of the first viral cases of bystander video of police excessive force in Australia filmed and uploaded to YouTube. The study shows the video’s impact on hegemonic mainstream and police news media narratives, processes of criminalisation and police accountability and the merit of narrative criminology in unpacking these phenomena. Police alluding to the ‘social media test’ in in-depth interviews shows that digital media in general and social media in particular can no longer be dismissed as peripheral or subsidiary to public discourse on policing in a digital society.

In this presentation we cover: Data Science – setting the foundations for advanced data analytics. An explanation of the cloud architecture, tools, data model, data science and visualisation techniques required to generate usable insights from raw force data from multiple source systems. Use case explanation and update. The Modern Slavery use case shows the power of natural language processing (NLP) and network analysis to understand a key threat in a completely new way. The Most Serious Violence use case adds behavioural analysis to seek to identify those who present the most risk of committing an offence of serious violence in the future – it also demonstrates the difficulty of using police data for a “predictive” model and the need to re-iterate a model when things go wrong. Two new use cases – Organised Exploitation and Firearms – show the benefit of identifying data science techniques developed in one use case, and further developing the for use in new areas of business.

ITV News 25/5/2020 News Watchdog asks Durham police to investigate Dominic Cummings Force to establish facts about PM’s chief aide’s trip to north-east England during lockdown The Guardian 25/5/2020 News SEBP 2020 Virtual Conference: Gangs, Drugs & Knife Crime in London Professor Kirchmaier's talk covers the following: In London, Knife Crime with injury has now been falling for over two years, and is back at pre-crisis levels. We show that gangs are driving the knife crime problem, and hypothesise that technological changes (consumers of drugs buy them online) are in part behind this rise in knife crime. Gangs form in areas with higher levels of deprivation, higher % of lone parents, higher levels of social housing. Poverty is persistent, major re-distributive policies have impacted the evolution of cities (and the criminal activities that take place in them). Gangs have a positive effect on knife crime. We estimate that an additional gang in an area increases knife crime between 15% and 35%. The issue is multi-faceted and the current rising trend is likely the result of changes in technology (affecting drug markets), and a lasting effect of austerity.
