1/2 Breaking!!!! A #PartyofWomen candidate reported a threat to @ northumbriapol @ POWLizPanton

They did not take the threat seriously and put the phone down on her… or so they thought. In fact, the line stayed open and we have the recording of what was said:

PC 1: What does she think happens? You have put yourself out there, as the voice of the people, and people out there don't like what you have to say.

PC2: She accepted that in all fairness. I don't think there's any real credible threat.

PC1: Ah she won't accept that. She's made reference to getting punched and tagging her leaflet. But you were giving them out! You cannot take back the fact that you are handing the fucking things out! I don't get it!

Male voice: "If anyone's going to come and punch her it's going to be . . .”

PC1: “ME!”

PC2: (Laughing) Punch a Nazi!

Two of the officers were female. They work for @ sCCJardineNP

Doesn't the fact not 1 but now 2 of these candidates are having trouble with the police tell you something?

Her 'trouble with the police' being that she phoned them for help, to report a threat, and they joked about punching her and wanting to kill politicians when they thought they'd slammed the phone down on her.

That tells us something alright, that maybe it's the police that are the problem...

Absolutely no surprise there.

As with all posts about the police one must caveat that there are individuals doing amazing work, truly gods work to protect and fight for our most vulnerable.

Buuuut as a collective they can get in the bin.
It’s not a few bad apples, it’s a few good ones and the rest absolute trash

I heard the KJK phone call and tbh I don't think KJK is doing her candidates any favours.

It tells me that the police have an issue with women. Especially ones who dare to speak up.

PepeParapluie · 04/07/2024 21:24

You’re right @ArabellaScott, it’s chilling. A woman worried for her safety asks the police for help and their attitude is ‘don’t go out’, and ‘I can’t help you’. And ‘well if you express the wrong opinion yes you will get yourself into trouble’ (not a quote to be clear, just paraphrasing the message), which is clearly victim blaming and very frightening for free speech.

urgh.

I feel very sad and worried tonight on the eve of this government change, I’m worried there is more of this to come.

OvaHere · 04/07/2024 21:22

Wow. Disgusting behaviour.

ArabellaScott · 04/07/2024 21:20

Other screenshot.

Women, don't expect police to do anything to help.

I can see the post of the audio again here twitter.com/FKASerioJosh/status/1808950026703437825

Thanks. What I found most chilling is taht the police think the solution to threats is for women to 'not go out'.

It's worse than disagreeing with a candidate's politicised and declining to support or protect them; it's saying that women should know not to say anything in public or to them expect threats.

Thoroughly depressing.

If you mean is this the same candidate as the one KJK phoned the police about while she was streaming, no, I don’t think so.

Not that it would make any of this okay if it was the same one.

This is horrifying. I don’t know why I’m surprised given the track record of police in this country, but that is so shocking to hear. There had better be an investigation into this, this can’t be left unaddressed.

Oh it will be," lessons will be learnt "

Is this the one who was warned by police then went online abusing the police and using homophobic and transphobic slurs?

Oh so punching her is fine and the police behaviour absolutely justified?

Last words were along the lines of:

That's why I won't vote
I want to kill them all.

I think at that point she was talking about politicians or prospective candidates, in general rather than just women.

PurpleSparkledPixie · 04/07/2024 20:47

Good. I went back to get that last PCs words and it had gone. Something about "and this is why I want to fucking kill them all".

The one officer said "this is why I won't vote" and the other one said "this is why I want to kill them all" or close to that.

Also mass reporting on Twitter by the looks of it, every comment is hidden as 'spam'

namesnamez · 04/07/2024 20:45

Recording won't play for me, anyone else?

UpThePankhurst · 04/07/2024 20:45

Fair Cop have it, and I'm sure it's by now been captured by plenty of other people too. There won't be any hiding this.

Fucking hell this is shocking! And you were amazing to go through with the punch.

And this new story is shocking too. What absolute misogynist shits too many police turn out to be.

Show quote history

It just makes me realise that we haven't moved on in 30years and it's so depressing! Women and girls will continue to be hated and assaulted and it's all our own fault, it was my fault for drinking a flagon of stonehouse in 1996 and now it's this ladys fault for having the courage to stand up for what she believes in, it makes me sick!

ScrapeMyArse · 04/07/2024 20:38

This should serve as a reminder to record any contact with the police.

ScrapeMyArse · 04/07/2024 20:35

ChishiyaBat · 04/07/2024 19:21

What an a absolute bunch of cunts! I hope she is ok and I hope these officers get sacked! I have never trusted the police since I was assaulted by an officer grabbing my breast repeatedly when I was 16, when I told him if he didn't take his hand off me I was going to punch him, he did it again, so I punched him then promptly got arrested. The police have never taken violence against women and girls seriously, but it still makes me so angry!

Fucking hell this is shocking! And you were amazing to go through with the punch.
