The police are only interested in the pursuit of road traffic offences. We got broken into and had some tools stolen; there are average speed cameras on our road but apparently the only record if the driver was breaking the speed limit. If they diverted funds from their road traffic division into detecting crimes against the person the country would be a better place.

READ !!!!!!

To say this is supposed to be someone who is “protecting the public” is absolutely disgusting! I was assaulted by a female bouncer on Friday 16th December at Weatherspoons The twelve tellers. My friend was approached by this female bouncer who told her to put her shoes on we explained that my friends heel had snapped she asked us to go next door to pop world and get some flip flops we then left as we was asked the bouncer then threw my friend on the floor by the back of her neck and told her to “watch her attitude” confused by this as we was doing as we was told I asked her why did you do that to my friend she hasn’t done/said anything wrong she was rude and aggressive towards me for again no reason, she then grabbed me by my hair pulled me to the floor where she proceeded to hit me multiple times while I was down on the floor. I then got up alarmed and distressed trying to explain to a police officer that I had just been assaulted by this horrible woman and because I had a few drinks (Bare in mind it was my works Xmas party) i then got arrested for drunk and disorderly for just trying to explain what had happened to me! This woman whoever she is needs to be sacked, you are paying people to look after us not attack us for no reason!!! I spent a night in these awful cells with the staff that treated you like dogs! -5 degrees outside they had me in short and t shirt with the thinnest blanket ever I asked numerous times for another blanket or appropriate clothing they told me they would look but never came back. I have never been in trouble with the police in my life yet I was the villain in this story! Absolutely disgusting they need shutting down ASAP! They do not deserve the title of police officers, the most corrupt and ignorant people I have ever come across in my whole 22 years of living. I also received a big fat fine, but the bouncer? Nothing ! Avoid these guys like the plague

They Protect peadophiles and druggie scrotes. And allow them to continue to bully,harrass and intimadate vulnerable people. Reported soo many times over the years and it still continues.
The peados in question STILL do anything they can to attract children or be near them over festive seasons.
Complete waste of time.

Have you tried to report an incident

Have you tried to report an incident? The last 4 times it has taken, 25 minutes, 1 hour, 25 minutes and 45 minutes just to get through to the control room. This the norm, any time of day you will simply lose the will to live while being kept waiting just to report the incident. This is not the fault of the control room staff but the officer in charge of staffing it. Most people will either not bother or will give up waiting. This means many crimes are going unreported or are over by the time it is eventually reported. Perhaps that suits them but it certainly gives the public no confidence at all. A waste of time.

A really bad police force

A really bad police force, watching one of their officers arrest a member of the public doing a law abiding activity is such a disgrace, you have already lost the respect and trust of the public, and this makes things worse.

Following watching the footage of allegations of illegal drone flying by Regi an Auditor It was quite clear the Female Sgt had no control over a situation 😳 of the above Allegations which were unfounded because the drone was actually in a bag and not flying.
If you thin Lancashire Police officers are going to get support with these kind of officers you live in cuckoo land
Having served in the army and in support of the Police in North Northern Ireland this force is weakness is these type of inexperienced officers your a disgrace

200 Days still no reply

I am still waiting for the report promised by lancashire Chief Constable Chris Rowley I have contacted the IOPC to intervene however they refuse unless I contact Professional Standards ( looking at their reviews I’m astonished that a National Newspaper is not investigating)
I have given them seven working days to reply as they have had all the relevant information for over six months
I cannot see why they will have any excuse!
LETS SEE!

Our child gets jumped and they don't do jack

Our child gets jumped and they don't even bother to come out. Absolutely shocking.

They have had a week now, since a an assault of 2 people on one took place, and only once have they even rung to apologise for not coming.

They have left her in fear, our house under threat and the little twits that did it roaming free thinking they're untouchable.

And people wonder why the law is taken by the victims and family's, its because the terrible police service don't care!

This is not the first time these people have let us down, our neighbourhood is neglected by them continually! And then they have not even taken responsibility now, they have blamed us, saying that we should have write our MP. They're saying they don't have the officers, and we shouldn't have took her to hospital when she was attacked so that it was an emergency. The police told us to take her to hospital! So here is my honest review, a group of monkeys would be better equipped to deal with stuff, I'd not bother the so called police and deal with it yourself.

As of now that will be our way and the little gets that did this are for sure gunna know!

EDIT:- Blackpool convention of morons decided to tell us its not a serious offence and won't do a thing.
We asked how can we make sure she's safe at college, work or anywhere, the CHIEF says u can't wrap them in cotton wool,that one of he offenders house is a party house for drugs and drink, qnd tried to make it as though we are at fault, the only mistake we made was having faith in our own child maybe

Anyway we hit them with facts, told them how disgusting it is, put in an official complaint and this review...
Guess what?
The powerless milk monitor power trip corrupt blackpool police only reported us to social services... that was their answer to the fact that we complained about the treatment and lack of any help given!
The chief already told us he couldn't do anything, but suddenly he can get SS to ring us, saying our kid is in the intervention stage because the police have told them she's been jumped, and that we aren't doing our job right...

We have raised 4 kids perfectly fine you have to trust them at some point, and maybe we were dumb to do so, but none of her siblings had done this kind of thing, not to say she's an angel, she's not, but she didn't ask or deserv to get jumped did she, qnd what's more to be told what happened doesn't matter at all is disgusting!
So we spoke to SS and they litteraly told us what had been said by us and the COP, qnd we came to the conclusion that this guy was the kid who took his ball home if you tackled him, the force had literally "run to mummy" because they got called out.
Blackpool police are corrupt, not helpful, powerless morons who only do anything when they get butt hurt!
Again I say this, if you get assaulted, if a family member gets hurt, or worse, deal with it yourself, get your vigilante on because my dog could do a better job and he's a lazy git

Awful police force

Awful police force. Corrupt to the core. Allow malicious communications to be posted about me and do nothing to help. Refuse to investigate their own officers for wrongdoing. Now they allow malicious communications about me on their Trustpilot. No wonder the UK has a dim view of police.

Why don't Lancashire police ever catch anyone. My mum who was robbed in sainsbury's police said they would release CCTV of the woman who did it. Then as a woman I reported 2 men chasing me and my brother trying to beat us up and they didn't even know us nothing has been done. I have told them where they live useless

Can't fault the service I received

Firstly I don't love in Lancashire, I come under GMP. I'll explain...
Some years ago I was visiting a friend in Burnley. I was having a bad time with a partner (now my ex). We had a kid who was with me. I received a text saying she was going to end it all and to say goodbye from her to our young daughter.
My friend told me to notify Lancashire police and tell them the situation. She later told me that if the police couldn't gain access to my abode they'd kick the door in.
Later that night Lancashire police phoned me and told me they told GMP and GMP were unable to gain access and kicked the front door in. I was a bag of nerves and a wreck. The lady PC at Lancashire police was sympathetic and spoke to me for an hour on the phone reassuring me I did the right thing. I was worried about the door, she told me it was not my concern but my partner (ex), it was her problem. She even arranged for an officer to call and see me the next day.
Next day the officer came bang on time as arranged. We had a great 30 minute chat, a splendid officer.
GMP NEVER got in touch with me, a total waste of space. So my praise goes to Lancashire police who helped me as well as calmed me down in a professional manner, something GMP should practice, but they won't because they've no human remorse feeling...

Lancashire roads always shut!!

Lancashire is a wonderful place to visit its beautiful. It's great to visit only if you dont have to use the roads! Every day there is one or more "road closed" incident. Last week, i joined the motorway at Lancaster and was straight into stationery traffic. The day before, on the M65, i was in the same situation. And MANY times before. It seems that the priority is to close the road rather than to keep traffic moving. I can fully appreciate when a serious accident happens, they need to do a proper investigation, but can't they do a bit of both? Often, those accidents will turn out to be nothing more than a bump. Even if there is a fatality, surely in this day and age, with video on phones, they could be a bit more mindful of other road users and yet still do a thorough investigation? Visit Lancashire, it is gorgeous, but plan several routes because lately, the police seem to close roads first and foremost! If the standard of driving has dropped SO much that accidents occur more often, then is that a result of poor/lack of traffic police? Come on Lancashire, keep us moving along safely and still do your investigation. If you're stuck for hours in a jam, ring 101 and ask why........ unless you do, nothing will change.

Preston police useless

Preston police useless. Ring them to ask for help moving vehicles blocking an alleyway that needs access. Get a voicemail back one hour later asking me to get them to move. You are joking right? Like cmon guys, it's literally your job.

Called Police 101 To Report Intruder ... Waste Of Time!

Could Lancashire Constabulary possibly be any worse? I suspect they can ......

NOTE: Police 101 and NHS 111 are currently (09.08.21) UNOBTAINABLE from landlines in the Lancaster area!

Two weeks ago, I called Police 101 to report a break-in at the flats where I live. They took THREE DAYS to attend, making feeble excuses!

Meanwhile, Landlord Adactus did NOTHING to secure the property.

Last night (exactly two weeks after the break-in to our basement) I came face-to-face with TWO MALE INTRUDERS in our basement!

Police 101 were unhelpful, and totally disinterested, to the point of rudeness!

As a victim of horrendous crime for 16 years, my advice is, unless the knife is already sticking out of you, don't bother to call the Police. They REALLY are that hopeless!
