  S6 Ep4 - Why a missed opportunity costs more than a pay rise

  Aug 5, 202638 min

  The Home Office announced in mid-July that police officers in England and Wales will be awarded a 3.5% pay rise. Despite the body responsible for advising the Government on what cops should receive recommending a 3.9% increase, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood chose a lower figure. Cheshire Police Federation chairman Jamie Thompson tells host Andrew Simpson how the latest pay award, which takes effect on September 1, has made his members feel. The duo also discusses what the Police Remuneration Review Body said in its report about working conditions, and speculate whether a debate about industrial rights for police officers will reignite. There is positive news to share too after Cheshire Constabulary was classified among the top performing forces in the country by the policing inspectorate.

  S6 Ep3 - In a fast-changing world, consistency is what counts

  Jul 15, 202635 min

  As the saying goes, ‘ The more things change, the more they stay the same ’. Police officers in England and Wales can be forgiven for feeling that way as we reach the halfway point in 2026. With a new Prime Minister due to be confirmed shortly, the Cheshire Police Federation returns to discuss what that might mean for policing – including the challenges presented by changing faces at Government level. For this episode, host Andrew Simpson is joined by branch chairman Jamie Thompson and Anna Galloway, full-time Wellbeing and Equality Lead and newly-appointed vice-chair. The trio talk about police courage, how the local branch supported one of the biggest operations in the Cheshire Constabulary’s history back in April, and their expectations for the next police pay award. In evidence presented for consideration by the Police Remuneration Review Body, the Police Federation of England and Wales has asked for a minimum seven per cent consolidated rise for each of the next three years.

  S6 Ep2 - Bravery Awards: Why it’s right to acknowledge courage in policing

  Apr 1, 202645 minS6

  This special edition is dedicated to the second Cheshire Police Federation Bravery Awards in March. Host Andrew Simpson was among the guests at Nunsmere Hall, near Northwich, and he took with him a microphone and invited those in attendance to share to share their reflections on the importance of an event of this type. A total of 17 Cheshire police officers received an award in recognition of their selflessness and ability to think quickly under pressure, and we hear from a selection of them in this episode. They comment on the value of looking out for each other, why compassion counts in their job, and what receiving an award means to them. If the definition of courage is feeling scared but opting to act anyway, then police officers possess it in abundance.

  S6 Ep1 - Need police officers to support change? Then make it meaningful

  Feb 16, 202631 minS6

  The Government has shared proposals for what it describes as the biggest overhaul to policing in England and Wales since forces were professionalised two centuries ago. They feature in a White Paper published at the end of January 2026. But what do police officers make of the ideas for change? Jamie Thompson, Cheshire Police Federation chair, reveals to host Andrew Simpson which parts have prompted the most debate so far. With the Home Secretary seemingly set on reducing the number of forces by merging existing organisations into larger regional operations, the duo also discusses the potential consequences for policing in rural locations like Cheshire. They also preview next month’s second Cheshire Police Federation Bravery Awards. Previous episodes like this one Want to shake up policing?

  S5 Ep7 - Want to shake up policing? Then ask frontline officers how

  Dec 19, 202531 minS5

  The pressure to restructure policing is clear, although finding consensus on the best way to do so is anything but. A white paper on police reform which the government said was due before Christmas won’t now be ready until January at the earliest. What will be in it seems to be changing all the time. Jamie Thompson, Cheshire Police Federation chairman, tells host Andrew Simpson how the topic was talked about at last month’s Police Federation of England and Wales’ annual conference. The duo also discusses a first keynote speech by newly-elected National Chair Tiff Lynch, a clear vote of support for increasing subscriptions, and why Mukund Krishna, PFEW CEO, was right to remind everybody why recognising success is important.
