Summarization
In the past four years, 47 police officers in Scotland have been able to retire or resign from their posts while facing misconduct proceedings. This is allowed due to current laws, which Newsnight's Sima Kotecha and Hannah Sbee are investigating. The public has criticized Police Scotland for allowing this, and many are calling for a law change in order to get justice for those affected by retired or resigned officers
Topic Modeling
- Police misconduct proceedings in Scotland
- Law-enforcement processes in England and Wales
- Public faith in Police Scotland
- Retirement or resignation of police officers - related issues
- UK government promises related to migrants
Emotional Analysis
The tweets express a range of emotions, from anger and frustration to hope and determination. The primary emotion expressed is outrage at the lack of accountability in Scotland's police force, where officers facing misconduct allegations are allowed to retire or resign without consequences. This injustice is further highlighted by the fact that in England and Wales, proceedings continue despite officers' retirement or resignation. Additionally, there is a sense of hopelessness among members of the public, who feel that their complaints are disregarded and that the police are investigating themselves. Finally, there is a desire for change, with people calling for misconduct hearings to take place after retirement/resignation and for the law to be changed.
Trend Analysis
- Police misconduct in Scotland and England/Wales
- Protection of rights of prisoners and victims
- Investigation of senior management in Scotland police
- PTSD caused by war
- Migration and underage girls in the UK

| 1625501643424022528 | @sima_kotecha @hannahsbee I took early retirement, causing a misconduct proceeding against me to be dropped. The criminal case still went ahead. Misconduct hearings should still take place after retirement/resignation, the law needs changing. | 1 |

| 1625554332023128065 | @MoiAliEdinburgh @sima_kotecha @hannahsbee I think police management would resist misconduct hearings continuing after resignation/retiral, because they lose their ability to pressure/bully the cop into accepting their decisions. | 0 |
| 1625526156416978945 | @RogerthePolice @sima_kotecha @hannahsbee If a hearing go head after retirement, presumably the "accused" can shrug and ignore it, unless there's a possible impact on pension etc? | 0 |
| 1625548552565825536 | @JamesMunro5 @sima_kotecha @hannahsbee That is why the law needs to be changed, so the cop has to attend the hearing. They can no longer be sacked, but it would be possible to fine them, or have their past record altered to show a misconduct warning & they could not join another force. | 0 |

| 1625954413918490624 | I hope this message is heard and change is made. As a member of the public, my complaints were disregarded , how can we have faith in @PoliceScotland when they investigate themselves ! Thank you @sima_kotecha @KirstyWark @BBCNewsnight for bringing this issue to light https://t.co/r7XVtV8dNj | 4 |

| 1625421296073834498 | @sima_kotecha @hannahsbee I would assume that if it's just misconduct instead of gross misconduct it's below the bar for criminal prosecution. Therefore stopping the investigation saves taxpayers money as the worst outcome would be dismissal anyway. | 3 |
