What a truely horrific killing of a police officer today. My thoughts are with his family, friend and colleagues and with all those who have lost a loved one during their service to this country. The Police deserve better backing then they are receiving. Members of Parliament should not be upholding protests which put our officers in danger. More support should also come from the Mayor of London and London's Police Commissioner Ms Dix.

"In a year when a long line of politicians and public figures have vilified the police, and screaming hordes have called for them to be defunded, today more than ever we should all think about how we are kept safe by the boys in blue. Every day they run headlong into unknown danger and tragically far too many are killed. They keep us all safe regardless of our colour, religion, gender, or political stance Those campaigning against the police, uploading videos to you tube should hang their heads in shame for creating an anti police environment.

People say the time is a healer but they were wrong. The pain is real, the hurt never goes away. He is missed by so many people who knew and loved him. He wanted to bring a safe society and not because of people’s religious beliefs, cos that was a type of man he was. His grandchild will know what a true gent he was. I will love and miss you always.

"This was not written by me, but by a former colleague. It's very eloquent and accurate. I hope you read it... ""There will be no golden casket, no kneeling footballers, no virtue signalling by F1 drivers, no dance in the name of art on BGT, no riots and no looting but just a dignified silence from a blue wall, behind which stands a shattered family, devastated colleagues and a shocked Police family. They stand together, upset, angry and in pain. Despite all this, those serving will put their uniforms back on tomorrow and the day after and continue to protect the public, they will run towards danger, and stand face to face with pure evil to protect strangers, they deal with and see things that no person should really see, and they ask nothing more than for your support and to go home to their families. So don’t tell me that anyone’s life matters more than that of a Police officer."" The best job in the world by far Ex GMP Officer"

They are uncles, aunties, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, mums, dads and friends they have a life when they take their uniform off, a uniform they wear when they are protecting us. No officer should have to pay the ultimate price with there life.

We have lost three offices just this week, and it just brings home the dangers that we walk into every day to protect the public who we serve and the colleagues that we are with. I am forever humbled and honoured every day when I think about the hero's that I work with and am always amazed at what they do. I think about them every day and the sacrifices that our fallen officers have given to us and we must remember them forever more .

When people complain about the more mundane aspects of a police officers role, fines, shoplifting etc they should bear in mind that it is also these officers that are the first on the scene of some shocking scenarios which most of us would run from. They cannot run, they have to face it, to deal with it, to protect US from it, with the dedication of the ever thinning blue line, to the point of some giving their lives. I salute all officers that have lost their lives in the carrying out of their duties and give my heartfelt condolences to all who knew and loved them. Thank you.

"The Thin Blue Line Among us, sent down from heaven, Are those that walk a Thin Blue Line, that's a given. Like Guardian Angels to watch over me and you, Are those that wear the uniform of blue. We see them only as traffic stops, We do not call them friends, just cops. We pray we never have a chance meeting, We never pass along a greeting. But they are so much more than this, They simply do not see the world as bliss. But they look into the corners of our deepest fears, They walk the beat, they wipe a tear. They bring a message to our home, When all is not well, and you are alone. They come to us, no matter the need, Handle the problem, complete the deed. They lay their personal feelings aside, They do their job, they have great pride. And if one should fall, among life's things. The badge they wear, turns into wings"

He left behind myself and our 4 children who were aged 8,7,4 and 1at the time. Every time I read about another young woman left a police widow my heart breaks for her. Our eldest daughter always wanted to be a policewoman and has the honour of wearing her fathers numbers while serving in the same Hertfordshire force as he did. We will never forget him and the huge gap he left in all our lives. A wonderful man took so soon at the age of 35. Always loved. So everyday that my daughter and her husband also a police officer go to work I pray they come home safely to their 2 children. Please stay safe every one of you who serve with pride. Remembering all the other fallen officers as well. Never forgotten and always in my thoughts.
