Hello, I am a Criminology undergraduate researcher.
I am currently undertaking research centered around the new polish communities' relations with the Metroplitan Police service.
I have some questions that I'd love for you guys to answer/debate...
1. Why do you think it is that Poles are amongst the most arrested non-UK nationals in London. Do you think that it has anything to do with the language barriers that exist with the police?
2. Do you think these arrest rates would fall, or community relations would improve, if the Met. Police began to learn the Polish language?
3. Do you think that the Metropolitan Police should seek to recruit Poles as full-time Police Officers or part-time Community Support Officers? Would you (as a Pole) want to do the job?
4. Do you feel that the new Polish communties living in London are treated differently by the Met. Police than say the new Australian/South African/New Zealand communities?
Thanks for your time, Stuart
