Why are they obsessed with their registration plates on their cars? Why don't they all just sell their cars if they are so worried and we can organise mini buses to pick them up for their shift.
Sad to see the Police still failing these audits. They just don't seem to learn, or want to improve their behaviour,...you have a job for life here AB.
I've noticed an interesting change in PCSO's over the past 12-18 months. They've not only stopped carrying designation cards but also started to say that they don't know what they are. More recently they've started referring people to the various police forces websites. Now, during this time, its worth noting that the regulations surrounding PCSO's and designation cards hasn't officially changed. It's become so wide spread that I can only assume that it's a concerted effort by the police to faze out the cards and give PCSO's defacto powers and force a legislation change? People might think that's not possible. But I would argue that 3 years ago I wouldn't have thought it possible to pass a law that effectively makes protesting illegal? Or that forcing people to take a vaccine that's not 100% safe is being seriously debated? But here we are. The great power grab of the 21st century. I'm just speculating here but, if nothing else, there is definitely a pattern here.
Good point! Bare with me... After ww2 there was a shortage of qualified nurses, so they allowed some auxiliary nurses who had completed a lesser 2 year, more practical training programme to register as nurses. These were the enrolled nurses, they had similar roles as the Registered nurses bur never held management positions or training roles. Sounds a bit like the way PCSO is going to me. Give it a coupe more years and they will have power of arrest, but won't have many career opportunities past beat Sargeant.
Read the coronavirus act... will tell you what’s coming. Look around you. Australia, Austria, Germany... vaccine mandates and medical apartheid. U.K. are smarter than that. They are playing the slow card.
Was it just me, or did anyone else notice the pcso shoulder appellate was pushed so far back as not to be immediately noticeable, adding to the confusion
Absolutely. They brought in coof AND BELIEVE you me it was DELIBERATE to enforce more powers and take away our freedoms. I said they will soon take away our right to peacefully protest and guess What? They have. This is why we came up against such hostility and physical assaults by the police when carrying out our legal rights to peacefully protest. The vxxs are another story. Things will never get better only worse. They want us totally controlled like North Korea and China.
Wait...Those PCSOs were driving a car equipped with official emergency blue lights and sirens. I thought that only constables were supposed to be in control of fully equipped police cars. So, not only are their uniforms incredibly ambiguous, leading members of the public to believe they are fully fledged officers, they are now being given access to vehicles that will further present this misappropriated impression that they have more powers than they actually do. This is "mission creep" beyond the role that PCSOs were initially intended to fulfill. We predicted this would happen a decade ago, and bit-by-bit here it is. Baby steps so nobody will notice. It's a gradual change from oath swearing constables to a private security service.
@@nomadiclapse PCSOs (police community support officers) are not exactly analogous to mall cops. It's a type of actual police officers in England and Wales. They are always unarmed and originally they were severely restricted in what they could do (which varies regionally). This is why they must wear different uniforms. Many but not all restrictions were lifted in 2017. Now they can even arrest people in certain cases, but e.g. they can't initiate a stop and search. It seems that the original intent (at least officially) was to have cheap reinforcements for the police who do all those things for which you don't really need police powers or proper training, and now this has been turned into a trick for creating a new lowest rank of regular police officers with less pay and minimal training.

I was feeling a bit down after the announcement of vax passports but damn AB this cheered me up! A few laugh out loud moments here. I actually felt sorry for the Elvis guy :)
that Sergeant was a nice guy, very polite. Total opposite of other police you've encountered. I've noticed over past week, most of the auditors are being treated far better than usual by the police and they all seem to be aware of auditors. Maybe they've had internal memos or videos in their internal WhatsApp groups. Still its a noticeable change and good to see.
Well done ab.. You had pco Elvis completely discombobulated... Reminds me of the elvis line.... If you're looking for trouble you've come to the right place... 👍
Well except for the fact that he :- did not identify, did not have a physical designation card, did not inform he was recording and had his hands in his pockets. Yeah he was professional 😂
The confusion of if they were PC's or PCSO's would have been easily avoided if they had, just for one second attempted to follow procedure and introduced themselves properly on contact with a member of the public then followed that by informing AB that they were filming. The ignorance about what a designation card is was worrying. Either these 2 are seriously under trained or as i suspect they get away with just bumbling through their day, ignoring all policy and procedure, relying on the ignorance of the public to be of any worth at all.
Yo, AB, I’m with you brother! I thought these two jokers where actual pc’s. They walked out with the air of a pc and their insignias are blending in too much with their pc looking uniforms. This is the first time where I’ve thought pcso’s looked like pcs. Love how you put them on task about that, because I agree! Especially how they’re both pcso’s and not even one pc is with them.
We really need to be able to tell the difference between police community service officers and actual constables this is dodgy it’s like we’re being misled or lied to I have no trust in any organisation that misleads.
You mean like not having POLICE on the uniforms and the like.. They were instantly recognizable as PCSOs because it said PCSO and Police Comunity Support Officer on their uniform.. I knew that and we do even have them in Northern Ireland..
@@kateroyston9416 That’s because they’ve got rid of so many real police, they’ve got a load of police cars going spare. I remember when PCSOs first appeared, one used to see them getting the bus to various points around town! There was one that used to be seen fast asleep, frequently; he was reprimanded!🤣😂🤷♂️
@@robotsonmars1989 I thought they were pcs. It's very clear to understand that they could be confused as pcs. Form the back, it's extremely clear but the front not so much.
@@kateroyston9416 Because as a taxpayer you probably don't want to have to buy and maintain 2 different fleets of vehicles. The numbers of PCs and PCSOs on duty fluctuates during the week so it is unrealistic to have half a dozen vehicles sitting around that can only be used by PCSOs..
Love your work and your style AB. My suggestion to you is that you complete a standard written audit for each station. This would be a series of questions which score 1-10. It could cover workplace tidiness, upkeep, signage, police interaction, non compliance of the law, officer knowledge, bad parking etc. This would give a score and could be presented to the Cheif Constable for actions to improve. It's also an easy answer to the cops who ask "can I help you?"
Comedy gold about his zip 🤣 Also designated cards, you would've thought a Sargent would know the answer to that. Notice at 16:17 , I think he doubled checked his Zip again 😆.
As a supervisor, it his job to know about the duties of PCSOs and their requirement to carry their Designation Cards. It just shows how poorly they are all trained!!
No hate for the PCOS...they weren't twats, but they did seem a bit incompetent and trying too hard to to be important beyond their role...rather embarrassing for them.
TL:DR; Not a pass, but not a fail. I'd give it a B. Just the usual directives and questions but without any real enthusiasm behind it so they were just going through the motions. Though the PCSOs seemed to have forgotten their training.
This Elvis I saw him crying at the chapel, and he was all shook up. I think if if he continues down this road, he may we'll get a jail house visit. This police barracks is now called Grace land.
LEGALS & Policy - failure to identify - no designation card - and yes, it’s a card listing their name, their powers, responsibilities and more… or anyone could just show them a page on the internet! - wrong uniform. They “should wear a hat when meeting the public” and yes, PCSOs did indeed look like warranted Constables - Sergeant (£42,000 pa) thinks PCSOs should have warrant cards, and don’t even know that they must have Designation Cards and be carried and shown on request. His JOB is to manage these people. He just hasn’t a clue. Probably a “fast tracker”. Got a degree, but little else - simply riding the gravy train upwards, regardless. - videoed without warning. A policy and GDPR breach. Cliché … “at this moment in time” I’m not asking for your name. No need to say that Plod phrase at all. Immature Power play by Elvis (thank you very much…)🎼 PS. “Stand over here…Make sure you’re not blocking the entrance”… err, just like the two PCSO Plods did 5 minutes earlier, parking their car on double yellow lines dangerously close to the exit gate, for no genuine reason. To lazy to drive another 5m to make it safe.
@@Carlosyabrudy yes and no. The act of recording alone is sufficient, as that is legally “the collection of their data by a GDPR regulated organisation.”
@@johnscott4693 the act of recording cannot be deemed enough for Data Protection since it is not possible to identify someone with only their appearance. The Act is very clear and there must be something that permits the identification of a human being that constitutes data that is either personal or sensitive data e.g. race, sexuality, name, address, telephone number or otherwise. Privacy is the issue here and in public when no questions are being asked, then they do not need to record anyway but if they know they want to ask a question and record it THAT is when notification prior to the question being asked must take place. Although a lot of them forget to do it simply since they are too busy.
@@Carlosyabrudy If true 1) Quote case Law of your interpretation 2) Why do buildings with CCTV Recording have signage which confirms this? 3) ICO Extract Can we identify an individual directly from the information we have? If, by looking solely at the information you are processing you can distinguish an individual from other individuals, that individual will be identified (or identifiable). You don’t have to know someone’s name for them to be directly identifiable, a combination of other identifiers may be sufficient to identify the individual. If an individual is directly identifiable from the information, this may constitute personal data. Can we identify an individual indirectly from the information we have (together with other available information)? It is important to be aware that information you hold may indirectly identify an individual and therefore could constitute personal data. Even if you may need additional information to be able to identify someone, they may still be identifiable. That additional information may be information you already hold, or it may be information that you need to obtain from another source. In some circumstances there may be a slight hypothetical possibility that someone might be able to reconstruct the data in such a way that identifies the individual. However, this is not necessarily sufficient to make the individual identifiable in terms of UK GDPR. You must consider all the factors at stake. When considering whether individuals can be identified, you may have to assess the means that could be used by an interested and sufficiently determined person. Basically what this means is a clear image of you (and your voice) is “identifiable data” ie you can be distinguished from others. Remember too that the police have powers to trace your your UA-cam account in certain circumstances. This combines your image, your voice with your data as, for example, IP addresses expressly qualify as “data”. That enough to mandate this rule of announcement in ALL cases. The other aspect is the Police, via legal representation, have agreed operational terms with the ICO. These include the policy of an announcement. So there is also the second legal aspect of breaching the legally binding agreement of treatment of data. This has many parts including but not exclusively: recording video, recording sound, holding ALL that data in ALL cases for 30 days, if a complaint is made it MUST be released to the individual - and so on. This means ALL aspects of the agreed processes must always be followed or the Police breach their ICO agreement EVEN IF a single part may not qualify in absolute terms. PS. I take it you’re not legally qualified?
The sergeant made me piss myself laughing. So laid back and casual in his answers. Why don't they carry them? I dunno. He's very confused doesn't know anything about anything
I think we was all taught at a young age how to cross a road haha, they talk to you as if there talking to child about road safety. your so funny. Respect AB
Always makes me laugh that 1 officer asks you why you are filming, you answer, and then another one comes along, does not speak to there colleague just asks you the same question. Great communication between them. Elvis acts like he has just finished school. "I have given you all the info I want to" 10 seconds later "will you give me your details". How stupid can you be, do they actually listen to public. Ummmmmm NO
They’re not stupid (well maybe they are but not for doing this) they do it intentionally because the more responses they can get out of you increases the probability if you contradicting something you previously said, thus allowing them to establish suspicion that you’re lying about your purpose there and furthermore to ground a search and seizure of your person. This is why the best thing to do when talking to the police is to just record, say “I don’t answer questions” do whatever they say but make it clear you do not consent to any searches of your personal effects or your person. Then fight it later in court.
lol, Section 42 of the police reform act which is statute law states that they need to show it on request to members of the public but they can't show it if they don't even have it and don't even know what it is !!! Pretty sure that if they use any designated power then it would be unlawful because they have to rely on that card to use them. So if they want to confiscate someones alcohol in the street and the person asked to see the powers given to them to be able to do that then they need to show it or else they cannot lawfully take their alcohol as per the law. They also need to be in uniform any time they need to rely on their designated powers. All he showed you was some online information page about PCSOs
Over the years the PCSO uniform has changed gradually more and more to resemble Police. Partly down to budget cuts and partly down to wanting to fool the public. The average member of public would not immediately know the difference.
Section 42 of the Police Reform Act 2002 requires PCSOs to produce a ‘designation’ upon request when exercising any powers under the Act. The designation is not prescribed but it should list which powers have been designated and must describe the approved uniform. This section also gives the chief officer power to modify or withdraw the designation as appropriate.
This audit was lovely, you were like a kind mentor with the PCSO. It was on the brink of turning sour a few times but you steered it back with your manner and positive personality. They will all have learned a little. Good stuff AB
Hi AB, grate deflection as usual, It looks like the temperature is dropping in the UK, we are 30c in the day & down to 20c over night. I am in Waikato, New Zealand, dose that fall under Australia in your stats. I like it when you point out the illegal parking. I would berate them until it was move, health and safety of the public. You would get a ticket in a flash here in little NZ Love your work, the high light of my week
If they are not cops than they should not look like cops and have a police car. I think that is dangerous because if someone needed help that person will think they are approaching police officers.
Too right, they look like proper coppers! ,.. thats just wrong! And you should push more on the designation cards, so that we know what powers they have, .. seems like they're all trying to dodge this issue! Great job, once again A B , put them right in their place! 👏👏
Didn't anyone else find it very sexist for the male PCSO to just walk up to an existing interaction, interrupt and start asking his own questions? What did he think his female colleague was already doing?
Gets me everytime when they ask 'why you filming', what makes them think you are? you might be just holding the device in that direction? Assuming until proof is obtained.
They turned round like synchronized swimmers when they showed you their uniforms to prove they were C3POs, comical. That Elvis crack was brilliant. The best bit was when you burst into song in your accent, hilarious!
A good display of soft police skills by the Sergeant. Those PCSOs seemed okay, but obviously green; time will tell if they grow into the role well or become the petty authoritarians of the kind seen in many of these videos.
awesome, you should be paid by the government to fix their attitude. thank to u and all the people like you. you are doing a very good job for the society. keep going
I can't believe they black up, cover their badges and drive police cars when it's just some middle class kid with a degree who wants some power. With his hands in his pockets.
FYI - The PCSO Designation Card should be produced on request by a member of the public in accordance with Section 42 of the Police Reform Act 2002. The PCSO should also produce their identity card at the same time.

These Clowns need reeduction
Suspicious minds, I nearly chocked on me coffee🤣🤣🤣
You should audit 10 downing Street and ask those officers how does it feel to protect a liar.
imagine following rules in the first place to even get mad at others for not following them.
Then you dont understand politics. You have to be a liar to be 1 period. And you have to be naive to vote them in
Likely get arrested or forced to leave. They don't exposure these people lol
i,think politics should not play a role with audits.
Since when do the police have any morals? The vast majority would f*ck over their own mother's for a promotion.
I was feeling a bit down after the announcement of vax passports but damn AB this cheered me up! A few laugh out loud moments here. I actually felt sorry for the Elvis guy :)
that Sergeant was a nice guy, very polite. Total opposite of other police you've encountered.
I've noticed over past week, most of the auditors are being treated far better than usual by the police and they all seem to be aware of auditors. Maybe they've had internal memos or videos in their internal WhatsApp groups. Still its a noticeable change and good to see.
Terryfirma was recently assaulted at Hastings police station.
hopefully they act the same without a camera.
Nah he wasn't. He tried to change the subject quickly to being careful about the cars when AB questioned why he didn't know anything.
They are beginning to realise that if they make fools of themselves on video, they are on a hiding to nothing. Great stuff, real change.
No they've realised their being filmed.
"i can't take you seriously" ...This had me in stitches. Another great video.
Seriously
Well, he's a PCSO, so there's little reason to.
Well done ab.. You had pco Elvis completely discombobulated... Reminds me of the elvis line.... If you're looking for trouble you've come to the right place... 👍
The only people in this country who do "Hostile reconnaissance" are the police.
To be honest, Elvis was polite in his fishing expedition.
You toy with them like a kitten toys with a ball of wool it’s brilliant
I thought the male PCSO was extremely professional and handled the situation well.
Well except for the fact that he :- did not identify, did not have a physical designation card, did not inform he was recording and had his hands in his pockets. Yeah he was professional 😂
@@karlhulme8014 his manner was very professional and he dealt with AB well.
The confusion of if they were PC's or PCSO's would have been easily avoided if they had, just for one second attempted to follow procedure and introduced themselves properly on contact with a member of the public then followed that by informing AB that they were filming. The ignorance about what a designation card is was worrying. Either these 2 are seriously under trained or as i suspect they get away with just bumbling through their day, ignoring all policy and procedure, relying on the ignorance of the public to be of any worth at all.
"What's with the Elvis haircut?"🤣🤣
I choked on my own spit!
Yo, AB, I’m with you brother! I thought these two jokers where actual pc’s. They walked out with the air of a pc and their insignias are blending in too much with their pc looking uniforms. This is the first time where I’ve thought pcso’s looked like pcs. Love how you put them on task about that, because I agree! Especially how they’re both pcso’s and not even one pc is with them.
*JUST KIDS INPERSONATING A POLICEMAN*
I thought they looked a little upset when he demoted them 🤣😂
We really need to be able to tell the difference between police community service officers and actual constables this is dodgy it’s like we’re being misled or lied to I have no trust in any organisation that misleads.
You mean like not having POLICE on the uniforms and the like.. They were instantly recognizable as PCSOs because it said PCSO and Police Comunity Support Officer on their uniform.. I knew that and we do even have them in Northern Ireland..
Paul,this was always the plan,why are they driving around in 'real' police cars!
@@kateroyston9416 That’s because they’ve got rid of so many real police, they’ve got a load of police cars going spare. I remember when PCSOs first appeared, one used to see them getting the bus to various points around town! There was one that used to be seen fast asleep, frequently; he was reprimanded!🤣😂🤷♂️
@@robotsonmars1989 I thought they were pcs. It's very clear to understand that they could be confused as pcs. Form the back, it's extremely clear but the front not so much.
@@kateroyston9416 Because as a taxpayer you probably don't want to have to buy and maintain 2 different fleets of vehicles. The numbers of PCs and PCSOs on duty fluctuates during the week so it is unrealistic to have half a dozen vehicles sitting around that can only be used by PCSOs..
this video is a bestseller !!! ☝😎
It's like dropping a sugar cube next to an ant mound. They all come out swarming.
Love your work and your style AB. My suggestion to you is that you complete a standard written audit for each station. This would be a series of questions which score 1-10. It could cover workplace tidiness, upkeep, signage, police interaction, non compliance of the law, officer knowledge, bad parking etc. This would give a score and could be presented to the Cheif Constable for actions to improve. It's also an easy answer to the cops who ask "can I help you?"
love this idea , a running sheet on all your destinations AB sounds like a very diligent thing to do
19mins of of pure entertainment.
👊👊👊 AB 🇬🇧
Thank you so for the feedback
Comedy gold about his zip 🤣
Also designated cards, you would've thought a Sargent would know the answer to that.
Notice at 16:17 , I think he doubled checked his Zip again 😆.
@@sharkymark506 yeaaah 😂😂😂
The gift that keeps on giving 😂🤣
Isn’t it funny that he tells you to be mindful of the traffic, yet he enters through the car entrance what a goon
Give him a chance Andy he just wanted to help....aaa'hhh 👍
As a supervisor, it his job to know about the duties of PCSOs and their requirement to carry their Designation Cards. It just shows how poorly they are all trained!!
"You can do anything, but don't step on my 'Thin Blue Line'..."
😂😂😂
No hate for the PCOS...they weren't twats, but they did seem a bit incompetent and trying too hard to to be important beyond their role...rather embarrassing for them.
They all think their important, beggars belief why ???
AB is the best!! Wit, Intelligence, & Resistance.. best auditor anywhere in the world
TL:DR; Not a pass, but not a fail. I'd give it a B. Just the usual directives and questions but without any real enthusiasm behind it so they were just going through the motions. Though the PCSOs seemed to have forgotten their training.
I’m failing this one because the sergeant wasn’t even listening at the end
This Elvis
I saw him crying at the chapel, and he was all shook up.
I think if if he continues down this road, he may we'll get a jail house visit.
This police barracks is now called Grace land.
LEGALS & Policy
- failure to identify
- no designation card - and yes, it’s a card listing their name, their powers, responsibilities and more… or anyone could just show them a page on the internet!
- wrong uniform. They “should wear a hat when meeting the public” and yes, PCSOs did indeed look like warranted Constables
- Sergeant (£42,000 pa) thinks PCSOs should have warrant cards, and don’t even know that they must have Designation Cards and be carried and shown on request. His JOB is to manage these people. He just hasn’t a clue. Probably a “fast tracker”. Got a degree, but little else - simply riding the gravy train upwards, regardless.
- videoed without warning. A policy and GDPR breach.
Cliché … “at this moment in time” I’m not asking for your name. No need to say that Plod phrase at all. Immature Power play by Elvis (thank you very much…)🎼
PS. “Stand over here…Make sure you’re not blocking the entrance”… err, just like the two PCSO Plods did 5 minutes earlier, parking their car on double yellow lines dangerously close to the exit gate, for no genuine reason. To lazy to drive another 5m to make it safe.
If you ask someone for personal information then you have to inform them you are filming almost like a GDPR Miranda rights
@@Carlosyabrudy yes and no. The act of recording alone is sufficient, as that is legally “the collection of their data by a GDPR regulated organisation.”
@@johnscott4693 the act of recording cannot be deemed enough for Data Protection since it is not possible to identify someone with only their appearance. The Act is very clear and there must be something that permits the identification of a human being that constitutes data that is either personal or sensitive data e.g. race, sexuality, name, address, telephone number or otherwise. Privacy is the issue here and in public when no questions are being asked, then they do not need to record anyway but if they know they want to ask a question and record it THAT is when notification prior to the question being asked must take place. Although a lot of them forget to do it simply since they are too busy.
@@Carlosyabrudy If true
1) Quote case Law of your interpretation
2) Why do buildings with CCTV Recording have signage which confirms this?
3) ICO Extract
Can we identify an individual directly from the information we have?
If, by looking solely at the information you are processing you can distinguish an individual from other individuals, that individual will be identified (or identifiable).
You don’t have to know someone’s name for them to be directly identifiable, a combination of other identifiers may be sufficient to identify the individual.
If an individual is directly identifiable from the information, this may constitute personal data.
Can we identify an individual indirectly from the information we have (together with other available information)?
It is important to be aware that information you hold may indirectly identify an individual and therefore could constitute personal data.
Even if you may need additional information to be able to identify someone, they may still be identifiable.
That additional information may be information you already hold, or it may be information that you need to obtain from another source.
In some circumstances there may be a slight hypothetical possibility that someone might be able to reconstruct the data in such a way that identifies the individual. However, this is not necessarily sufficient to make the individual identifiable in terms of UK GDPR. You must consider all the factors at stake.
When considering whether individuals can be identified, you may have to assess the means that could be used by an interested and sufficiently determined person.
Basically what this means is a clear image of you (and your voice) is “identifiable data” ie you can be distinguished from others. Remember too that the police have powers to trace your your UA-cam account in certain circumstances. This combines your image, your voice with your data as, for example, IP addresses expressly qualify as “data”. That enough to mandate this rule of announcement in ALL cases.
The other aspect is the Police, via legal representation, have agreed operational terms with the ICO. These include the policy of an announcement. So there is also the second legal aspect of breaching the legally binding agreement of treatment of data. This has many parts including but not exclusively: recording video, recording sound, holding ALL that data in ALL cases for 30 days, if a complaint is made it MUST be released to the individual - and so on. This means ALL aspects of the agreed processes must always be followed or the Police breach their ICO agreement EVEN IF a single part may not qualify in absolute terms.
PS. I take it you’re not legally qualified?
Loving the synchronised turn to show their back 😅
AB was always on my mind.
The sergeant made me piss myself laughing. So laid back and casual in his answers. Why don't they carry them? I dunno. He's very confused doesn't know anything about anything
And getting a wage at the weekend.... unbelievable !!
you should have dismissed him by saying "Elvis has left the building"
I think we was all taught at a young age how to cross a road haha, they talk to you as if there talking to child about road safety. your so funny. Respect AB
Seems like they think if they are on blue lights they are allowed to run people over?
Love the new editing skills AB 👌
Always makes me laugh that 1 officer asks you why you are filming, you answer, and then another one comes along, does not speak to there colleague just asks you the same question. Great communication between them.
Elvis acts like he has just finished school.
"I have given you all the info I want to" 10 seconds later "will you give me your details".
How stupid can you be, do they actually listen to public. Ummmmmm NO
They’re not stupid (well maybe they are but not for doing this) they do it intentionally because the more responses they can get out of you increases the probability if you contradicting something you previously said, thus allowing them to establish suspicion that you’re lying about your purpose there and furthermore to ground a search and seizure of your person.
This is why the best thing to do when talking to the police is to just record, say “I don’t answer questions” do whatever they say but make it clear you do not consent to any searches of your personal effects or your person. Then fight it later in court.
YO AB! just to report the tablet is working well upto 4K viewing! I am going to watch Muscle Boy after 🤩 Its Now or Never in the Ghetto of Crawley 😃
lol, Section 42 of the police reform act which is statute law states that they need to show it on request to members of the public but they can't show it if they don't even have it and don't even know what it is !!! Pretty sure that if they use any designated power then it would be unlawful because they have to rely on that card to use them. So if they want to confiscate someones alcohol in the street and the person asked to see the powers given to them to be able to do that then they need to show it or else they cannot lawfully take their alcohol as per the law.
They also need to be in uniform any time they need to rely on their designated powers. All he showed you was some online information page about PCSOs
Over the years the PCSO uniform has changed gradually more and more to resemble Police. Partly down to budget cuts and partly down to wanting to fool the public. The average member of public would not immediately know the difference.
"Don't mess with my blue suede shoes", That officer definitely has a part time job impersonating Elvis!! 🤣
Section 42 of the Police Reform Act 2002 requires PCSOs to produce a ‘designation’ upon request when exercising any powers under the Act. The designation is not prescribed but it should list which powers have been designated and must describe the approved uniform. This section also gives the chief officer power to modify or withdraw the designation as appropriate.
that spice boy needs to join a band
The police should be thanking you for interacting with the PCSO's like you do. They couldn't receive any better training.
The police thought they caught a prey. It turned out they were ones who were questioned. LOL.
This audit was lovely, you were like a kind mentor with the PCSO. It was on the brink of turning sour a few times but you steered it back with your manner and positive personality. They will all have learned a little. Good stuff AB
Positive personality ? Don't encourage him in his sloppy approach to [so called] auditing.
I felt a bit uncomfortable for the female pcso as she kept walking away pretending to be on her radio.
They will have learned nothing.
AB you are so fucking good at what you do and you're hilarious love you
No designation cards
Hands in pockets
Imitating a police officer
Sergeant not knowing about designation cards
Absolute Fail
Thought I was gonna be a jailhouse rock.Thank you,thank you very much.
Hi AB, grate deflection as usual, It looks like the temperature is dropping in the UK, we are 30c in the day & down to 20c over night. I am in Waikato, New Zealand, dose that fall under Australia in your stats. I like it when you point out the illegal parking. I would berate them until it was move, health and safety of the public. You would get a ticket in a flash here in little NZ Love your work, the high light of my week
I think that CPSO might have been caught in a trap, that he just couldn't walk out of.
Because he loved you too much AB!
@@tonybussey8763 Ok, this is brilliant...well played.
Why can’t he see what he’s doing to AB, when he don’t believe a word he’s saying. We can’t go on together with Suspicious Minds
If they are not cops than they should not look like cops and have a police car. I think that is dangerous because if someone needed help that person will think they are approaching police officers.
Nice professional and mentally stable. Except for the card and impersonating police things which are probably their superiors fault
Too right, they look like proper coppers! ,.. thats just wrong!
And you should push more on the designation cards, so that we know what powers they have, .. seems like they're all trying to dodge this issue!
Great job, once again A B , put them right in their place! 👏👏
like the PCSO said you can find out their powers on their website
Today you played against the reserves - give the young man a pair of gloves! Rather than his hands in his pockets!
Didn't anyone else find it very sexist for the male PCSO to just walk up to an existing interaction, interrupt and start asking his own questions? What did he think his female colleague was already doing?
That's how they are trained!
Better than most comedy channels!!! A perfect ‘pick me up’ when I am having a bad day
Gets me everytime when they ask 'why you filming', what makes them think you are? you might be just holding the device in that direction? Assuming until proof is obtained.
How dare he ask who your audience is its the same as the king elvis fkn massive respect ab
Ha ha
A credit to auditing, respectful and mindful of the public. 👍
10:50 He's told he's done too much digging then asks for details?! Unbelievable. He's polite but just doesn't get it.
They turned round like synchronized swimmers when they showed you their uniforms to prove they were C3POs, comical. That Elvis crack was brilliant. The best bit was when you burst into song in your accent, hilarious!
I’ve been waiting for this for a long time 😂 I’m sure my local pigs won’t let me down!
You should have said: “if you don’t want your car to be filmed leave it in the garage” again 😂
A good display of soft police skills by the Sergeant. Those PCSOs seemed okay, but obviously green; time will tell if they grow into the role well or become the petty authoritarians of the kind seen in many of these videos.
AB you would make a really good stand up comedian you can make a joke out of nothing keep it up 😂.
awesome, you should be paid by the government to fix their attitude. thank to u and all the people like you. you are doing a very good job for the society. keep going
Thank you
I can't believe they black up, cover their badges and drive police cars when it's just some middle class kid with a degree who wants some power. With his hands in his pockets.
I almost feel sorry for plod when they interact with AB.
Nah, they are just a sorry bunch of buffoons
FYI - The PCSO Designation Card should be produced on
request by a member of the public in accordance with
Section 42 of the Police Reform Act 2002. The PCSO
should also produce their identity card at the same time.
