So around 100 accusations per year for the last 6 years.

Disgraceful.

I didn't particularly want Cressida Dick to resign over last weeks shambles but surely that's shockingly horribly disgustingly high? How can she allow that level of abuse?

What's the rate of accusations like across the country?

He also illegally contacted a woman who had called the police to report her husband for DV and started seeing (shagging) her.

Far end of the country to London so I'm not hopeful that this doesn't happen country wide.

I've only ever met two police officers off duty so to speak, one I remember would describe the women he 'had' as either mice ear lugs or witches sleeves.

Male entitlement plus distortion and abuse of legitimate power. Toxic combination. Sadly unsurprising.

That’s such horrific reading. And you just know there must be many, many more incidents which women didn’t make a complaint about.
