Excerpt:
Police officers have been banned from asking for a person's "Christian" name because it might offend people with other religious beliefs.
Officers taking down a suspect's particulars must now ask them for a "personal and family name" in case the word "Christian" offends Muslims, Sikhs or other faiths, according to the new official guidance.
Kent Police's prescriptive diversity rulebook also tells officers to refrain from using phrases such as "my dear" or "love", when addressing women for fear it may cause "embarrassment or offence".
