IT'S PC GONE MAD
Fury as police force warns staff that using the word ‘policeman’ could be breaking the law



'Police bosses were last night accused of worrying about woke terms rather than crime.
A new guide sparked disbelief by warning staff that using words such as “policeman” may be illegal.
They also must avoid phrases like “man up” and “grow a pair” to be more inclusive.

The 12-page guide from Staffordshire Police was last night dismissed as “woke nonsense”.

Tory MP Nigel Mills said: “You’d think the police have enough on their plate without spending time
worrying about which perfectly acceptable, normal language they can and can’t use.” The pamphlet
warns that “discrimination through language” causes offence and may also be unlawful.

It tells staff to choose gender-neutral terms like “police officer” to avoid upset. Similarly, “elderly” and
“OAP” should be binned for the public. Areas with “high-poverty rates” are instead communities “with
access to fewer opportunities”. It says mistakes “along your journey” are OK if you apologise and learn
from them.

The word-bans are the latest in a string of politically correct moves by public service chiefs. In April last
year Hertfordshire Constabulary ordered staff not to use “sir” and “ma’am”. Staffordshire Police said:
“The guidance was produced alongside external consultants to ensure we treat each other and our
communities with the utmost courtesy and respect.”...'
