Petition Require polygraph tests of all new and serving police officers

The Government needs to do more to protect the public. Police officers are in a unique position of trust in the society of United Kingdom. We believe polygraph tests would allow people who are unfit to serve as police officers to be identified.

More details

We believe that mandatory polygraph testing of police officers could have prevented many of the recent shocking incidents involving serving police forces, and help identify police officers who are unfit to serve.
