Undercover Cop On Infiltrating Gangs, Fake Identities & Violent Criminals | Minutes With

[@penoyer79]

This man is the embodiment of hardline detective/undercover investigator.

[@__doc___]

I met Peter about 6 years ago at one of his book events. He expressed the exact same views as this video then, regarding legalisation and regulation of drugs. I met him after and had a quick chat, told him I was applying for the police. He was so supportive and give me a great insight into what the job is. I’ve been an officer ~4 years now and I still think about the things he said when I met him. Even with a short length of service I can already see the failings of ‘the war on drugs’. As a patrol cop I’ve dealt with some pretty crazy situations. All in all it’s a great job, as long as you enjoy your part. Remember you’re a small cog in a big machine and do what you think is right everyday with conviction. Great video!

[@ts5171]

Peter is full of shit mate, everything he does is for money just like his hunt for Kevin, the man’s obviously dead

[@snoopy2072]

Truth is there is no war on drugs. Everything is in place intentionally and you’re nothing but a pawn in a corrupt elitist system.

[@mattvjmeasures]

Thank you for doing the job you do. Very much appreciated 👍.

[@georgesmith8268]

You sound like a top cop!

[@Munchey11]

If you look at the news today you will see Switzerland are looking to be the first country to make coke legal and to see over the counter. They say nothing else has changed over the years so they are going to see if this has an effect.

[@DennisTheMenace-1999]

This man took down some of Manchester most ruthless gangsters.

Female dominated workplace.

[@bbocjcp]

As someone who lived in "Saaf Lundun" for many years, I can attest that Peter is a top bloke.

[@IndieVolken]

he indeed sounds like a 'diamond geezer'

[@GayFrogsTho]

"You do not want to be stoned, eating four boxes of Maltesers and talking nonsense about understanding modern jazz" Couldn't agree more

[@josephparisi1458]

This quote is the story of my life tbh

[@emilyjane9901]

Speak for yourselves😂

Just imagine if, under the influence, you said with a giggle, “Hey, and by the way, I’m an undercover cop!”

[@rasmussrensen2029]

That line was straight out of disco elysium

[@rockyives6032]

Such a articulate man. Could listen to him for hours !

[@clarejones2421]

@rockyibes32 Have you seen his interview on James English’s podcast? Great podcast

[@Leokyriacou14]

i Could sit down with this gentleman and just listen to his stories ... So much respect for him!

[@jono77]

Yes Jackie's birthday the "secret code word" sounds like a true story no one would have suspected a thing

[@clarejones2421]

Have you listened to him on James English’s podcast? Great podcast

[@mattwilkinson5858]

Blimey he is convincing, when he was talking about how he is there to do business I was nearly apologising to the screen

[@nickmuzekari6124]

😂

[@rebeccachampagne9801]

Listening to him is like listening to a classic crime novel. His voice, language, tone are fabulous.

[@mickeybee]

Crazy how different times are regarding job application processes. Out-of-the-blue, fills in a cadet application form, with presumably zero relevant experience/training/qualifications, and a few weeks later, has started a career that sets you up for life! How times have changed! The hoops you have to jump through these days, and the background checks, just to get your foot-in-the-door..... truly is a different world. (I just want to emphasise, I am not belittling this man's achievement - he's clearly extremely dedicated, talented, professional and driven, hence why he got to where he has - I'm just pointing out how different the process of *starting* a career was then, compared to now).

[@marcusgarner1]

We need this speech on the necessity of legalisation and regulation of currently illegal drugs as a good, short, and sharable soundbite for people to share on social media !

[@djmastergroove946]

Peter Bleksley has had an incredible life. I read his book a couple of years ago and I couldn't put it down! Really interesting I highly recommend it 👍🏻 top bloke.

[@martintaylor1758]

Riveting interview. The mind boggles as you what goes on. Thanks for this.

[@rooneye]

The war on drugs HAS been won. I'd just like to congratulate drugs for winning the war on drugs.

[@contezelig]

Absolute respect for this person.

My heart sank when he said the majority of his career was a complete and utter waste of time.

[@zingo2664]

Peter is terrific !!! love his comments.... very intelligent man. 10/10

[@jayt6200]

To be mixing with some of the people he was mixing with whilst being a copper… this man has balls like King Kong

[@roundtheloopandback]

This man knows his stuff, totally comment at 21:13 onwards are in my opinion completely accurate, and there needs to be a complete shift in thought around drugs in this country (UK)

[@adamredwine774]

Incredible. I love this series. Keep up the good work.

[@nadinex]

I’ve always been such a big fan of Peter Bleksley! Incredible interview ☺️

[@brittanyp9334]

Phenomenal!!! I couldn't agree more!!!

[@SommerGale-c4p]

Bravo 👏… What an amazing depiction of his story going undercover! I sometimes find it hard to focus just listening to some people talk about their experiences, but I felt like it was a movie in my head and picturing every scenario he told😂.

[@tomrailton9201]

That was a brilliant video. I was born and bred in Brixton. I would love to meet Peter he is an amazing bloke. Take care and stay safe mate. Tom.

[@mindofjerry5476]

He is straight out of a Guy Ritchie film it’s incredible

[@AC-hj9tv]

😂

[@joes1988]

Brilliance, a man who understands "the war on drugs"

[@sceptile4204]

I just feel so sorry for him at the end built his whole career on what he loved for him to say it was a waste of time what it entailed

[@rasmus9595]

I agree. But it really seems like he has come to peace with it. And sort of gained a little bit of life understanding.

[@andypandy9013]

Excellent. Thank you. 👍

[@phatshaddo6067]

Incredible interview. I always love the interviews on this channel. Keep up the great work!!

[@andrewbrown5300]

Most people will only know him from hunted and not know he actually had a successful career beforehand

[@ritaparker478]

My admiration and gratitude to you Sir.

[@mrcurely]

Isn't it amazing that some mothers can have a sense of what could be a career for their children? A rough lad, but she could still see police in him.

[@theelement6255]

Man, this channel is always bringing the fire content❤️

[@nairemlap533]

Legalise and regulate!!!!! As this gentleman said, that is the ONLY option now.

[@Clasteau]

As a former worker in the substance abuse treatment field who lost his job due to lack of funding, hell yeah, he's 100 percent right. By the time I was laid off, we were the last detox facility in the state. Now we have none in this state. The insurance company has more to say about when they are done with inpatient than before.

[@davidpierce7581]

Met him once. Top bloke

[@MoPi-i5i]

His conclusion on the war of drugs is great, i couldn't have said it better!!! When will politicians Catch Up to this mindset?

[@scrumyg22]

Totally agree with this guy, legalise and control all drugs..cut out the drug barons and save millions of lives

[@danmuzz]

I know this guy!! I sold him some gear back in the day!

[@viktorkovacs2363]

13:15 gave me goosebumps as he was telling this monolog. I imagined him in a gangster film as a "businessman". Convincing skills.

[@ericaolsen9177]

I could listen to him for hours

[@leswilcock7327]

Listen to this guy he knows what he is talking about

[@MikeStoneJapan]

Don't forget that by the time the joint gets down to the end portion, the resins and residues of whatever came before will saturate said end

[@lukasschallibaum5046]

He should record audio books. Amazing voice

[@thedinkydreads9351]

It's amazing how many of these police interviews agree that the war on drugs was a waste of time

9:10 quite a suspiciously specific example lmao

[@terryblack2219]

Top bloke lot respect

[@459luker]

21:42 he's exactly right. Legalizing is the only way.

[@avaspencer7368]

It's wild to think about how our police force was going undercover to stop people smoking weed....

[@davidocallaghan6361]

Guy makes a lot of sense. War on drugs is lost. Take the power out of the hands of the cartels. It's the only way forward.

[@richieh2006]

What a gem! 🤣

[@georgepowell2504]

Is this a re upload? Defo heard the drug part before

[@adamredwine774]

They've had a couple of interviewees who have had very similar messages.

[@sceptile4204]

I swear he's already done one of these with them already ?

[@westnilesnipes]

Being stoned and eating four boxes of Maltesers, spouting nonsense about understanding modern jazz sounds like a good time 😂😂

[@Gundumb_guy]

It’s sad that we will never see that solution to the war on drugs in our life times probably! Very cool that dude is observant enough to understand that the current, and past, methods and of handling drugs was and is an absolute joke! And their are way too many people that make boar loads of money from this war on drugs so the politicians have zero incentive to change anything.

[@daviddavis7710]

Brilliant.

[@bm00_]

Why is his tie so abnormally long lol

[@DLM440]

😂😂😂

[@joeri2499]

To cover up his enormous balls, obviously

[@Here4theComments]

Because he's sitting down. He must be a very tall man, so when he stands the tie hits the right lenght.

[@widgetno1]

What a delight

[@peterjohncollyer3528]

This guy was gettting bang on it when he was undercover 🤣

[@Sluetch90]

Blesks is brilliant

[@kurtthewicked9009]

That whole thing about "building" the joint with tobacco is total horseshit; for whatever reason he doesn't want to admit to getting high as part of his job. If you work as a CI or undercover LEO on a drug task force you will absolutely be doing drugs, and often.

[@Whitewidow23]

I was thinking the same thing mate if I was interviewing him I would have asked if that's the case how come all these criminals couldn't smell the weed until u passed the joint lol

[@Boy-ep6mo]

No it makes sense he probably used the cocaïne and the weed but in Europe we roll joints with tabaco and you can put a bunch of tabaco in the bigining of a joint I used to do the opposite put more in the front so the other people didn’t have a much and I got the best part

[@mitchgraham]

Everyone sees the irony of believing this guys story after he tells you how good of a liar he is...

[@dejancetkovic4315]

talking about taking drugs while undercover was oddly specific

[@shanb9550]

If only govt and other decision makers could take his advice to legalise drugs. Unfortunately cause many govt’s are corrupt and it is not in their interest to legalise the industry, many powerful people would overnight lose empires built on selling drugs if addiction meanwhile average peeps lives are ruined by convictions for smoking a joints etc.

[@Venti1388]

That last line 😂😂😂

[@LiveLethal]

Very interesting life story. Though I do think the modern perception of the so-called "war on drugs" is often maligned due to unrealistic expectations and goals. It is not a 'war' and thus cannot be won. We can't change human nature, but we can see that justice be done for certain harm caused. Legalization arguments fly in the face of reality and human nature- that when you subsidize/legalize something, you get more of it. And it is a fact that drugs, legal or not, do society harm.

[@jack6450]

That’s precisely where the issue lies, when it comes to a problem of such unquantifiable magnitude as the illegal drugs market, you *can’t* effectively implement justice for the harms it causes. It doesn’t matter how many gangsters you lock up, there is simply so much money to be made in the sale and production of these substances that there will always be someone willing to risk it. It’s the policing equivalent of painting the forth bridge. Likewise you can’t effectively reduce the demand for these substances either, no matter how many public health campaigns you run people will always get curious, that is human nature.

[@pawkirkegaard]

there will always happen something to someone no matter what and drugs will always be there and has been for ages and ages. but imagine how much alcohol destroy both direct and indirect and somehow is perfectly legal and accepted and I doubt in a million years that with the billions and billions country's make on it that they would try and ban that. it's all here to stay. put in another way would you prefer to buy it at a place where it's under all kinds of control and you get the exact amount you pay for or some dude that don't know anything about it other than there's a little less in the bag that you paid for or cut up with what ever he happened to have that's white. there will always be people that fall in the deep end. legal or not. I've seen two uncle's drink themselves to death and my mother is on her way to keeping the family tradition on point. I choose a line anytime over alcohol no matter if its out of a 7eleven or the local dealer

What about all the people who are in jail for drugs millions of them around the world, would you release them give them reparations for being in 10 to 40 years for dealing drugs? How would this look like?

[@tallgrasslanestitches6635]

With legalization, dealing (as opposed to selling in a regulated shop) usually remains a crime. It’s using that gets decriminalized.
