New monthly police column
It’s good to see the launch of the monthly column in the Gazette by Ealing Police commander Sultan Taylor.
Hopefully this will be the start of a more constructive partnership between the police and the Gazette.
Just before Christmas, the chief reporter Lucy Proctor and I, visited the new commander and his press liaison officer at the Ealing HQ
It was full and frank meeting with the commander. He highlighted his concerns about coverage of crime in the Gazette, and in turn we raised several of our concerns re: access to information etc.
There was a robust exchange of views about perception of crime, actual crime and crime prevention.
However after the frosty start some good ideas started to surface – ideas which would be of mutual benefit – the column being one..
And now hopefully we can bring some of the other ideas discussed to the fore too.
