Describe your idea: Create a tool that allows people to log reports of police brutality and unjustified stop and searches – with the number of the relevant officer. Maybe people could also upload digital footage they might have made.
There could be a extra area where people can upload pics of officers that have forgotten to display their number while on public duty. The tool could also list instances of “death in custody” and identify police stations where this happens frequently.
What problem does it solve?: The tool could over time identify which servants need to redo their anger management training and which police forces may have an institutional problem.
It would help people in areas such as Brixton and Canning Town to get justice.

Whilst we support your Watching the Servants idea and would like to see something like this in existence, we have taken the decision not to take this on as the subject matter cannot be considered a consumer issue. We would therefore suggest that your very valuable idea is pitched to the IPCC or other suitable bodies in the field of justice and accountability.
