Liverpool slang (Scouse) for a police officer — used by locals to refer to the police in a tone that ranges from neutral to clearly derogatory depending on context. The term is strongly associated with Merseyside and marks you as a local if you use it naturally. Like most slang for cops, it allows speakers to talk about law enforcement without using the official terminology, signaling group membership and a certain attitude toward authority. Still very much in active use on Merseyside today.
