The police are demonstrating to be heard, increasingly strong social violence, generalized lack of consideration, inappropriate presidential declaration, the Alternative Police CFDT union puts words on the ills of the national police.

The national police are doing badly, more and more pointed out, by citizens who reproach them for their brutality, or by others a form of inefficiency, by the political power which does not take the measure of its difficulties and until President of the Republic who practices a form of amalgamation which deeply shocked the police, even among the most moderate.
Criminal assault
Thierry Audouin of the Alternative Police CFDT union looks back on the assault on one of his colleagues during a Molotov cocktail throw in Nantes. “We are extremely shocked by the violence of the aggression, a criminal aggression is not trivial, and then shocked by the fact that the demonstrators present were shouting that they were happy to see a -chicken grill-, it is Tragic! There is a loss of confidence, there is wear and tear and nothing is done. You cannot work like this indefinitely. The police hold on, but they can also crack from the inside “.
Review the organization of work
Alternative Police CFDT campaigns for an in-depth reorganization of work cycles. “We will have to review things in depth, the working conditions are material but are also very much in cycles “.
“A cycle to put it simply is twice twelve hours, it is called 12:08 in the national police, or twelve hours of night twelve hours of day that allows 50% more operational capacity on the ground. In Nantes, the insecurity of which the people of Nantes constantly report cannot do without this reorganization “.
A presidential statement like an electric shock
The declaration of Emmanuel Macron, the President of the Republic, on facies checks touched the most Republicans of the police. “To say that there are systematic facies controls, that would mean that it is an objective? Who would be set by whom? There are not any !“
Certainly, but are all police officers blameless? “There are administrative and judicial inquiries which lead to sanctions, so in fact there are breaches here and there. But you have to know how to separate personal breaches and not put them in touch with an institution by implying that it is the administration or the training that would cause us to be trained to be violent..
