Well, it's got worse in the sense that the public's perception of the police is so much worse now.

Policing is deeply unpopular.

Everywhere they go, they find people being hostile towards them.

Imagine doing that, your job every day, turning up.

And everyone, victims, suspects, everyone is hostile to you.

That's what they have to deal with every day.

So that just seeps in to their mentality.

And a lot of them will hate going to work because of this public perception that people have of them.

And frankly, a lot of the police officers I've spoken to this morning tell me that comments that Nigel Farage made this morning do not help.

And those parents will have to live with that and those mistakes the rest of their lives.

And yet they are the ones calling for no division.

And along comes Nigel Farage this morning.

Andy Hughes, thanks.

Thanks so much.

Thanks.

LBC, leading Britain's conversation.

Yeah, this all came about because back in February when I appeared on this podcast, I reported what my Met sources were telling me.

And they were telling me that there were serious concerns over Andrew's clothes protection team.

And one source even dropped the bombshell.

that the protection team may have withheld information from the Met about what they may have witnessed on Epstein's Island and when Prince Andrew, the then Prince Andrew, visited the convicted paedophile.
