Daily Mail columnist moans about woman’s police ‘uniform’ – is slammed online

"If a man had said this we’d call it misogyny. Who cares what she’s wearing. Let’s ensure she can do her job and she does it well."

The disappearance of Nicola Bulley has brought the nation’s attention to ensure she is found safe and well. Unless you are one Daily Mail journalist.

It comes as police will be asked about Nicola Bulley health disclosures to ensure they were necessary, the information commissioner says.

John Edwards said personal details should not be “disclosed inappropriately”.

Dog walk

The 45-year-old disappeared three weeks ago during a riverside dog walk in St Michael’s on Wyre in Lancashire.

A former victims’ commissioner has criticised Lancashire Police for being “sexist” after they controversially revealed Nicola Bulley’s alcohol issues.

“Would we have had police officers saying, if it was Nicholas, ‘he’s unfortunately tied down with alcohol because he been suffering with erectile dysfunction for the last few weeks’, I think not.

“No, it’s a dreadful error to put this in the public domain for absolutely nothing and I’m afraid I think it’s as sexist as it comes,” Dame Vera Baird told BBC 4’s Today programme.

A Home Office spokesman said: “The home secretary and policing minister are receiving regular updates from Lancashire Police on its handling of this case, including why personal information about Nicola was briefed out at this stage of the investigation.”

Mail

Well, Daily Mail columnist Amanda Platell, isn’t happy with the police but on a MUCH more trivial matter!

Detective Superintendent Rebecca Smith at press conference yesterday – skin tight navy dress, stilettos, poker straightened hair – whatever happened to a cop uniform! Or is she auditioning for Love Island for midlifers. Show some respect for a missing mother! pic.twitter.com/kTZx9b72vX

1.

I wouldn’t normally comment on such poor journalism but this is an absolutely disgraceful comment about a professional senior female police colleague – I did wonder what decade I was in ! https://t.co/IVtJW8f2Mo

Really?

It’s a cocktail frock

Shocking comment @DailyMailUK by one of your journalists.
1. Detectives don’t wear uniform
2. Smart dress is exactly what she is wearing
3. Nothing worn here impacts on this persons ability to do their job.
4. How about showing respect for a highly qualified individual? https://t.co/2LmT2svKyT

It’s difficult enough for women to break that ceiling and hold senior positions without someone criticising their dress sense. If a man had said this we’d call it misogyny. Who cares what she’s wearing. Let’s ensure she can do her job and she does it well. https://t.co/z7Mm5Q8sW9

With such a serious investigation ongoing & a family appealing for help rather than judgment, the ‘reporting’ turns to wardrobe selection! This dedicated and professional officer is out there working through a complex investigation. Misogynistic comments like this have no place https://t.co/BVHmd3L1eI

Lots of questions for Lancashire Police about it’s communication around the Nicola Bulley case. But what the female officer was wearing shouldn’t be one of them. Who even noticed? And why no comment on what her male colleague wore? https://t.co/Oing41JWiH

Will never understand the way some women judge what other women are wearing

She's a detective they don't wear uniform

She's wearing the equivalent of a suit just like the male detective wore in the press conference too – Not seeing any judgement on his attire

Ridiculous https://t.co/G4WBrkAqSH

Saddened to see this..there is a lady missing and her family and wider community are desperate to find her…and here we are again..constantly judging and blaming women in senior police roles….we really need a kinder society…for now and the future. https://t.co/NvlTMp9KWU

Perfect example of worst of what has happened in parts of media around the sensitive & complex search for Nicola Bulley

Superintendent Smith is a detective so doesn’t wear uniform. She’s also more on her mind than what a clickbait journalist thinks of her choice of office wear. https://t.co/utmW8Qqmrf

Jeez! "whatever happened to a cop uniform!" Even if your entire knowledge of policing in the UK was limited to watching one episode of the Sweeney while drunk or hallucinating you'd know detectives don't wear uniform which is why they call the rest of the Plod "uniform" https://t.co/Xeg5SRBOa5
