On Bristol Community FMs Friday Drivetime yesterday evening we heard from Montpelier builder Simon Lewis who was attacked by three police dogs and hospitalised on the second night of the Easter disturbances. This is the third programe I have focussed on those riots and the third time Avon & Somerset police press office have turned down my invitaton to appear. This is a decision made not by officers but at Portishead HQ by Media Relations Manager Victoria Tag and her boss, Amanda Hirst, Head of Corporate Communications for Avon and Somerset Police who answer directly to Chief Constable Colin Port. These decisions appear to contravene the publicly funded polices committment to dialogue with the community. Avon & Somersets Forces Media and Public Relations Policy states as follows: the philosophy underpinning that policy is to be open, honest, fair and accountable with the media and, through the media, with the communities we serve.
