00:00Use of force was the theme of a recent media open day at the Thames Valley Police Training
00:08Centre in Southampton. Here officers are trained how to use reasonable force in a hostile scenario,
00:15which is appropriate and necessary to achieve their lawful objective. But this goal is not
00:20without challenge. But there are ways officers can challenge and prevent the spread of online
00:41misinformation. In this mock scenario, officers demonstrate one way to correctly deal with a
01:09subject behaving erratically at a home disturbance.
01:39What we can do is show what is really, really going on. And we have, we have scrutiny panels,
01:53not just around stop and search, but our whole complaint system, where we have members of the
01:57public reviewing how we investigate those complaints.
