Thread: Police union squealing about being ignored

Yep the Colfos response sums up exactly what the situation is.
The Police Association is basically a Union representing noncommissioned members of the Police. It does not necessary reflect the views of its members and Cahil is now using his position as platform to try to influence the political landscape. He has no more right to be heard than any other lobby group. As he only represents noncommissioned staff he has no mandate from senior Police management.
His voice is worth nothing and carries no political weight and as such he can jump up and down all he likes but no one other than the media will take any notice of him. The media will always give him a platform as they know what his stance will be.
