A couple of charts on what has happened to police officer numbers and the overall #policeworkforce.

First, the % change in police officers, counted on a headcount basis, between March 2010 and March 2023 (excl BTP).

Winners and losers.

Second, the % change to the overall police workforce, again on a headcount basis, between March 2010 and March 2022 (the 2023 figures haven't yet been published).

Many more losers than winners.

I wasn't aware until yesterday that #policeworkforce data on police officers in E&W are now published with a detailed breakdown of their ethnicity (18+1 categories).

Here's the full breakdown as at Dec 2021, in numbers and percentages.

1/🧵
Here's Asian representation - this is the % of police officers in each force.

2/
Here's Black representation, again by force. Note the importance of police officers with mixed Black/White heritage - and especially Black Caribbean/White heritage - to overall Black representation.

Right, I've been crunching the numbers to look at the relationship between #policeworkforce changes in police officer numbers and the likely allocation of the #20kuplift.

Strap yourselves in, it's very interesting and may get bumpy.

THREAD

1/
First to say that I've used the allocation of the first 6k of the 20kuplift, which uses the existing #fundingformula, to determine how many cops of the 20k each force may get. Details in the attachment to this written statement. parliament.uk/business/publi…

I've then used the Mar 2019 #policeworkforce statistics to look at changes between 2010 and 2019.

NB: I am using the 31 Mar 2019 numbers as a proxy for the #20kuplift baseline b/c that's all we've got now. In reality the baseline nos will be different

Arrests down, blame the police?

Thread. 1/
According to the Crime Survey for England and Wales crime is down a lot; police recorded crime has been rising in recent years.

2/
We know police recorded is up partly due to more reported crimes being recorded by forces, esp less serious
