Resign as Chief Constable of West Midlands Police (or be sacked)


Resign as Chief Constable of West Midlands Police (or be sacked)
The Issue
We the undersigned call on Craig Guildford to resign as Chief Constable of West Midlands Police immediately, and further call upon the Police & Crime Commissioner Simon Foster to sack him if he does not.
The credibility of West Midlands Police has been all but destroyed by its current Chief Constable Craig Guildford.
Kemi Badenoch MP has called for his resignation or sacking.
"West Midlands Police capitulated to Islamists and then collaborated with them to cover it up."
"They knew extremists were planning to attack Jews for going to a football match, and their response was to blame and remove Jewish people instead. They presented an inversion of reality and misled a Parliamentary Committee."
The Chief Constable must resign.
Nick Timothy MP has said:
"We learned earlier that their initial reason for banning Israelis from Villa Park was the danger *to* away fans *from* armed” locals.
But to justify the ban they portrayed the Israelis as “uniquely violent” and military-trained. They used “intelligence” supposedly from Dutch police that has been utterly repudiated - by the Dutch police and other authorities.
And when the Home Affairs Select Committee asked why the vital information about the danger *to* Israelis was kept secret, the Chief Constable ludicrously said it was because he had not been asked for it.
In other words: “We won’t tell you the truth because you didn’t ask a specific question about a thing you didn’t know because we hadn’t told you.”
Yes. That was his defence."
Richard Tice MP said:
"West Midlands Police Chief Constable lied and lied again
He kowtowed to local Islamists who wanted to assault Jews.
Instead he blamed the Jews, who he should have been protecting.
This coward should resign or be fired."
This petition calls on the Chief Constable to reflect upon the strength of feeling about this matter and resign.
