Guys, this is just a small criticism about choices of photographs of PCSOs and police officers at work being used on web pages. I work for the Met and it seems a bit of a trend to show officers with their arms folded across their chest. This is a universal signal used everywhere. Its meaning is clear, "I don't agree with what you are saying, I am uncertain, I don't like this situation." Let’s show PCSOs for what they are, friendly and willing to listen.
