About this listen
In 30 years on the front line of British policing, there is very little that Iain Donnelly didn’t do: from being a uniformed constable on the beat in London to running counter-terrorism and surveillance operations, combatting child sexual exploitation and overseeing the investigation of the most serious crimes. During that time, he saw the job change irrevocably, to the point where the public no longer knows what to expect from the police and the police service no longer knows what to expect of itself.
Tango Juliet Foxtrot–police code for "the job’s fucked"–reveals how constant political meddling and a hostile media narrative have had a devastating impact on the morale of police officers and their ability to protect the public. With the organization cut by 20,000 officers and 23,000 police staff, only 5 percent of reported crime in the UK now results in a charge–compared with around 20 percent ten years ago.
By turns fascinating and funny, poignant and uplifting, this compelling account paints a vivid picture of what life is really like for those tasked with keeping us safe–and, crucially, explores what needs to change to secure the future of British policing.

A great listen/read
MPs should hang there heads in shame. A true reflection of how things have sadly changed for political gain in the police. MPs, media bosses and many of the general public should read this book so they know how it works. I would also recommend it to new police recruits as I think it would be a massive benefit to them and the police.
