"Sorry mate, ca'nt 'elp yer, me stab-proof vests' in the wash".........
Is it the testosterone-charged atmosphere coupled with an intimidating looking uniform, festooned with all sorts of goodies, 'to put society right' and, above all, that feeling of power that the whole package delivers?.
It does seem to attract a high % of nobbers whether they be socially inadequate 'mummys-boy' prats like the saddo depicted below or the 'run of the mill' overbearing aggressive thug that can be found in this part of the world.
There have been a number of incidents within the region of people being pulled over late at night by impersonators of the Constabvestulary and the last thing you need is dickheads like Bunce. I for one am not surprised that he was rumbled quickly. He looks like he still has a fucking paper round!
Wannabe policeman pulled over drivers
Above - Daniel Bunce.
A wannabe policeman fitted blue flashing lights to his Ford Focus and pulled drivers over on West Midlands roads after failing to get a job in the force, a court heard.
Daniel Bunce was facing jail today after a judge told him impersonating a policeman was “very serious”.
The 20-year-old from Tipton bought the lights after his application to get a legitimate job in the police was turned down.
He was also spotted using them to beat traffic jams, Warley Magistrates Court heard yesterday.
Mr Peter Love, prosecuting, said it was “bizarre case”. He said Bunce, who was a security guard but is now out of work, bought the silver Focus in January this year and had the lights fitted to the roof of his car shortly afterwards.
On September 1, he sped up alongside Andrew Garmston, who was riding his three-wheeled motorbike in Jervoise Lane in West Bromwich, and gestured for him to pull over.
Bunce gave Mr Garmston a ticking off for not wearing a helmet before reassuring him he was not going to fine him this time.
Mr Love said Joseph Richards, a friend of Mr Garmston who had been riding alongside him on a quad bike, recognised Bunce from school.
He said “you’re not a police officer” but Bunce responded that he was from Wednesbury traffic division before driving off.
The friends called police who matched the incident with a separate report of a Ford Focus using a flashing light in traffic jams on the southbound M5 at Worcester on April 30.
In interview, Bunce, of Beech Crescent, said he had pulled people over a number of times.
He admitted one charge of impersonating a special constable or a member of a police force.
Mr Gerard Brady, defending, said: “There is an immense amount of regret.
“He has always wanted to be a policeman. He applied for the job but did not get it.”
Mr Brady said his defendant had previously been in a part-time traffic management job which meant he could use orange flashing lights — but this did not include the blue lights.
“He was immature and regrets his actions,” said Mr Brady.
District Judge Graham Wilkinson said he had not ruled out custody saying: ”Impersonating a police officer is an offence I take very seriously.”
The case was adjourned for reports and Bunce is due to appear in court again on January 4.
Stupid Fat Fuck.
At least the Plods sifted this one out before he could do any serious harm, an awful lot get thru though. There does seem to be quite a lot in the 'cardboards' or the Plastic Plods IMO. When they are not texting, shopping for food or looking in shops what do they actually do? I mean, a lot of them are only one step away from impersonating a Policeman..........technically!
I do'nt actually think he did a very good job of impersonating a Policeman.
I mean you can walk around all day and see people breaking the law e.g.............
Drinking in public places.
Anti-social behaviour.
Tinted windows on vehicles.
Illegal number plates.
That's just the sort of things that i notice but do you see any coppers.......................rarely.
Now if Bunce the Dunce was sitting in a warm office eating a pizza or waiting at the chippy for a takeaway or shopping in Waitrose............that's more like impersonating a Policeman.
Unfortunately not all incidents involved with Police impersonators are as innocuous as this. Below are a selection and they are not isolated. So frequent, in fact, that i for one would be quite happy to drive past a Policeman at night who was attempting to flag me down.... and argue the toss in court.
Cop impersonators jailed for robbery
Carr and Ellis used police uniforms to help them commit their robberies
A MULTI-MILLION pound robbery by a gang impersonating police officers has seen two men sentenced to a total of 53 years.
On 6 December 2007 five men dressed in police uniform used the intercom at the offices of Verizon, a telecommunications firm based in St Pancras Way, N1. They claimed they had been called to reports of men on the roof and needed access to the building to check it out.BROMLEY: Police impersonators rob and beat pensioner
Wednesday 17th December 2008
AN 89-YEAR-OLD man has been beaten and robbed in his home by two men pretending to be police officers.
The thugs forced their way into his property in Walpole Road, Bromley Common, after he opened the door to one of them when he said he was a policeman.
They began to hit him in the face as he was slow to respond to their demands for money and one of them pulled the telephone line out of the wall before ransacking the rest of the house...........
Police have issued this E-fit of one of the attackers
Apparantly 14 Mannikins from British Home Stores were questioned and released on Police bail the following morning....
Police Impersonators in Loughton
Liakat Ali and Syed Mohiwan, stopped and searched approximately 100 women between April and May last year. The students dressed up impersonating officers and patrolled Loughton in a modified Vauxhall Vectra so stop and demand on the spot fines for speeding.
Both were jailed for two years.
The above examples serve to illustrate the range of crimes committed by Police impersonators and that not all are of the Bunce the Dunce type.
Mind you here's one last incident that you could'nt make up because the claim of impersonation involves the real thing............I have copied and pasted the article in full (unlike the others) as you really could'nt make it up! It is worth reading in full just in case in happens to........you.

Police claim Ian Tomlinson could have been attacked by fake G20 cop
The family of Ian Tomlinson were told by a senior investigator he may have been assaulted by a police impersonator shortly before he collapsed and died, it was revealed today.
The suggestion by the City of London Police was made after video evidence showed the newspaper vendor being attacked with a baton and pushed to the ground by an officer in riot gear.
According to an officer investigating the 47-year-old's death he could have clashed with a protester "dressed in police uniform" before he collapsed at the G20 demonstrations on 1 April.
The conversation took place at an emergency meeting with Mr Tomlinson's family and the Independent Police Complaints Commission on 8 April, hours after the footage was released.
A source present at the meeting said the senior investigator's comment was made after he was pressed on how the identity of the officer could be established from the video.
The claim is contained in a report by campaign group Inquest, whose researchers have interviewed Mr Tomlinson's widow Julia.
The group, which assists the families of people who die in police custody, said the suggestion of an attack by an imposter gave the impression that the investigation was biased. According to Inquest, the City of London police "completely failed to persuade the Tomlinson family of its impartiality".
Mrs Tomlinson would not discuss the report today, but accused the police of causing her husband's death.
She told the Standard at her home on the Isle of Dogs: "My daughters have lost their dad. My husband's ashes are in that living room. He wouldn't be there if it wasn't for the police.
"Ian didn't die of a heart attack, the police killed him."
The Inquest report reveals that Mr Tomlinson's family were not able to see his body until six days after his death. Police instead used fingerprints to identify him. The report also says a post-mortem examination found that Mr Tomlinson had a wound on his right leg that could have been caused by a bite from a police dog.
The IPCC is also accused of an "obvious error of judgment" by failing to launch an independent inquiry immediately. The report's authors said forensic evidence may have been lost as a result and claimed IPCC officials failed to treat police accounts with a "healthy degree of scepticism".
The IPCC was blocked from attending the first post mortem by the coroner and the Tomlinson family were not told they could attend. The report also raises concerns that police delayed an ambulance from reaching Mr Tomlinson as he lay dying in Cornhill.
Deborah Coles, co-director of Inquest, said there were similarities with the death of anti-fascist activist Blair Peach, a teacher who died on a demonstration in London in 1979. There have been repeated claims that Mr Peach was killed by police officers who struck him over the head. A secret report into the death of Mr Peach is due to be published by the end of the year.
Mrs Coles said of the Tomlinsons: "There is a deep frustration this family feel, which is common with other families where they were given misinformation, with the initial police investigation." The City of London Police and the Met Police were unable to comment on the claims. An IPCC spokeswoman said it could not discuss an ongoing investigation.
UNQUOTE
It beggars belief does'nt it? The Met must have got that statement straight out of a Christmas cracker.
It almost makes you think that the bloke sent to deal with The Tomlinsons was a Police impersonator!
Here's some more.......................or are they.........there's an awful lot of food involved.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQM-OTVUMHsFinally - here's a series of pictures of Bunce the Dunce on being told he has his interview to be a plod.
"Err I'd like to join the Police,... I can join?...
"I have in interview next week?!"
There obviously is a very practical reason why Police helmets are made the way they are, below is an example of it's prime use... to sit on top of a prick!
Above - "Gotcha" - man being arrested for impersonating Jesus. The others in uniform in the picture just think they are God.
