Cast your mind back to 31st March when @cliff_goodwin, @staffspolice LGBT + Staff network co-chair and ‘engagement adviser’ to the @CollegeofPolice posted this little gem ..... 
Many 100s responded to point out that these statistics were either misleading or simply false. Cliff deleted. But did he apologise?
No. He decided to insult those who complained.
And a colleague joined in.

Both clearly and publicly identified as associated with the College of Policing. With all the credibility that this association lends.
Many were outraged. This view was typical of the many 100s who commented.
Many made formal complaint to the CoP.

This was their response -Goodwin deleted the tweet, so no harm and no foul. Certainly no apology from either to the members of public they insulted.

And all in the name of the CoP.
We wrote back -

Not merely captured, but willing to promote lies.
We hope you agree this is serious.
