Once the eussr has finished "harmonising"and then subjugating us they can complain all they like, there wont be a choice

They will be doing the bidding of our masters from brussells.

Have you got the right link? The one from your question is about direct entry into senior police management positions.

[anotheoldgit]

I am amongst the first to blame Europe for most things, but I fail to see the connection here.

It is a sad reflection on the very poor quality of UK grown candidates that yhe Home Office is looking to choose from a wider pool.

It happens in Industry. It happens at Corporate levels. It happens in transport. It even happens in football. If the best manager available is foreign then why not employ them. Why settle for useless non entities just because yhey are British?

And the measure is being considered because of the desire to appoint an American. Nothing to do with being subjagated or harmonised with Europe.

[bazwillrun]

Its the correct link.

I'm saying the various people complaining that these outsiders will be doing the jobs mentioned is academic, as the way things are going it wont be long before the eussr is running things and they will have a harmonised police force in place with people of its own choice running things.

[bazwillrun]

There have been many previous reports of how they want to start getting to grips with the police and military forces of the eu countries.

"And the measure is being considered because of the desire to appoint an American. Nothing to do with being subjagated or harmonised with Europe. "

I'm not blaming this on the eussr but just pointing out what will be the case in the not to distant future when they get their way, not now but in the near future, an american wouldnt even be considered once the eu is running things

[Gromit]

Baz,

Harmonisation of the police has already started.

Interpol in 1923 - And a good thing it is too.

[Gromit]

// an american wouldnt even be considered once the eu is running things //

Interpol
Headquarters: France
Member States: 190
Budget: €60million

Have a guess what nationality its General Secretary, Ronald Noble, is?

[anotheoldgit]

That is a slightly different topic Baz, yes I agree and that is why so many of us wish that the UK leaves the EU.

The EU isn't the trading organisation we were first led to believe it was, it is quickly becoming political, to produce a super Europe, dictated and run from Brussels.

There is no reason we could not all trade together without trade need for all the interference we have as a nation been forced to endure.

To take just one directive that being the opening of our borders to those from Europe, which in turn provides a ladder for all and sundry of the world to arrive in this country.

Without this one thing, and seeing that we are an Island, wouldn't we be more secure than we are now, an open gate to Europe?

[Gromit]

AOG


The UK opted out of the Schengen agreement which means our borders are not open but as closed as we want them to be.

Our borders are leaky not because of the EU but because we do not spend enough money securing them.

Gromit

That may well be Gromit, but we are not allowed to refuse entry to other EU member citizens, showing a few pages of paper encased in a cover of cardboard means very little, since we all know that they can be so widely forged.

[youngmafbog]

AOG, the problem is that we can't deport them without great cost. Mainly due to the pond life 'ooman rights lawyers creaming the country on legal aid for every penny.

Baz, you have a very valid point. The EUSSR will very soon be our masters. The Panzers are lining up at Calasis as we speak I suspect.

What the Germans failed to do in two world wars was swept away with the sweep of Blair (and then bottlers) pen.

[bazwillrun]

" The Panzers are lining up at Calasis as we speak I suspect. "

Hmmm, i wouldnt go that far.....just yet.

Just read that Adolf Merkel isnt doing too well in the pre-amble to the main elections , can only be good news

[anotheoldgit]

Now call me a cynic but...............

/// Currently, all officers must enter the force at the rank of constable, making it almost impossible to hire anyone other than career policemen for senior posts. ///

/// The National Black Police Association supports the scheme being used to hire brilliant ethnic minority candidates from all walks of life. ///

This all seems a bit far fetched - if the EU can't agree on things like agriculture let alone a constitution then it certainly isn't going to agree on a single unified police force in my life time. And more to the point no government would be able to absolve itself of providing its own policing by giving the job to a european agency - what agency could possibly want the job in the first place
