    Do you not need 3 years residence in England + being a special police constable to get into the british police? Btw dont be worried about the few weeks wait for the interview lol, its the 7 month wait to get to the medical!

    yeah they're well equipped the WMP, yeah, maybe leave it like your man said about 1-2 weeks and then maybe give them a call, or send the Super a letter/email etc.

    Exact same thing was said to me so you can expect a 6 month wait now :/ that's the average time, it took me 7 months and I was lucky it only took that long so just put it out of your head for the next while. Once you're cleared for medical everything will move quickly
