EuroCOP

Please share with the police family across the UK!

South Shore TV, the makers of the TV programme DIY SOS, are looking for a police family to take part in the next series.

They are keen to hear about a family in need who may benefit from home improvement modification which they would otherwise be unable to do themselves due to incapacity, injury, or having a disabled child, for example.

Applying is straightforward and there's more information here https://www.bbc.co.uk/showsandtours/take-part/diy-sos

EuroCOP continues to call on EU decision makers to establish a central repository of data in the EU as regards incidences of violence against police officers. We are grateful for the support we have received from Javier Zarzalejos, Chair of the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs LIBE Committee

In Europe we are experiencing the increasing epidemic of violence against police officers. This violence can include verbal abuse and hate crimes, sexual assaults and most commonly physical violence against police officers and police staff. Development of social media creates its own specific challenges, and the future will bring even more hybrid threats. EuroCOP, the association representing police officers, has been vocal on the matter for an extended period of time. However, this deteriorating situation has been routinely ignored by EU decision makers.

In many european countries data is not collected which makes it even more difficult to understand the causes and consequences of this dangerous phenomenon. The aim is to look at emerging trends, improve training, ensure consistent support for victims of assaults and work with the criminal justice system around outcomes and sentencing.

This is why EuroCOP is calling on EU decision makers to establish a central repository of data in the EU as regards incidences of violence against police officers, potentially via Eurostat. Collection of data at EU level would help understand the roots of the problem, exchange best practice between Members States and adapt safety awareness training programs for police officers

Solidarity with EuroCOP members Malta Police Union

The Malta Police Union stands firmly in support of the officers involved in the today's tragic incident.

This deeply unfortunate event underscores the complexities and dangers our officers face every day while protecting our community.

The officers involved responded to a rapidly evolving situation, with the intent to protect lives and maintain public safety.

It is important to recognize the difficult decisions our officers must make in the line of duty.

The Malta Police Union fully supports the officers involved and is confident that a thorough investigation will confirm that their actions were justified and in line with departmental policies.

We ask the community for patience and understanding as the investigation proceeds, and we remind everyone that our officers are committed to serve and protect the public with integrity and professionalism.

EuroCOP members Politiforbundet always standing up for and with their members. Solidarity with Heino Kegel for calling on their government to think more long-term and invest sensibly in their police force focusing on recruitment and retention

Bandekonflikt: Politiforbundet opfordrer politikerne til at tænke langsigtet 👮👮‍♀️
Politiet har brug for flere ressourcer. Ikke kun i form af nye værktøjer, men i høj grad også flere politifolk, lyder det fra Politiforbundets formand Heino Kegel, efter den aktuelle og alvorlige bandekonflikt er landet på statsministerens bord.

- Politikerne bør tænke mere langsigtet og investere fornuftigt i dansk politi blandt andet ved at fokusere på rekruttering og fastholdelse.

- Der er ingen tvivl om, at ny viden og flere værktøjer kan hjælpe politiet til at navigere og løse opgaverne bedst muligt. Der er dog et også et stort og akut behov for, at politikerne tænker længere frem. Politiet har også brug for en bedre økonomi og langt flere politifolk for at kunne løse opgaverne. Ikke flere lappeløsninger, tak, lyder det fra forbundsformand Heino Kegel.

The recent few weeks have been crucial for the new set up of EU institutions.

EuroCOP wishes to congratulate Ursula Von Der Leyen on her re-election as President of the European Commission. The Commission Political Guidelines 2024-2029 rightfully identify internal and as key priorities for the next legislative term.

European Parliament will be instrumental in turning these political guidelines into real initiatives and legislation. EuroCOP wishes to equally congratulate Roberta Metsola on her re-election as President of the European Parliament as well as other MEPs on their appointment as members of the and Committees, especially Francisco Javier Zarzalejos Nieto on his appointment as LIBE Chair and Li Andersson on her appointment as EMPL Chair. They can greatly influence the safety, well-being and working conditions of police officers around Europe.

EuroCOP is looking forward to future cooperation with newly elected EU decision makers and to turn its manifesto into real actions.
