If you can communicate effectively, then engagement is more likely.

Is that true? The Cheshire Police Federation podcast returns with a conversation about a word that has several meanings.

Branch chairman Jamie Thompson joins host Andrew Simpson to explain how his role demands engagement with different actors on a daily basis.

One such group is MPs; why talk to them? And what are the potential benefits?

Together they discuss the reasons police officers might be more reluctant to engage than in the past, and assess whether withdrawing from the pay review process has been an effective strategy for the Police Federation of England and Wales.
