I do think some veterans have a sense of entitlement, way above their station, for some reason. The guy knew he wasn't allowed to go that way, yet he tried anyway. The reaction of his pals tells me they were ready for a fight.

Deserves everything he gets: he’s playing bagpipes, end of.
I agree, I like to think I'm pretty open minded but I'm all for a zero tolerance approach to bagpipes an the players of these so called musical instrument

Indeed. It really is hard to love these tartan octopuses. They should really be put back in the sea where they belong, and so that we no longer have to hear their pained wails.

They have them at Dropkick Murphy gigs.
The rest of the band are clearly doing their best to drown them out. I think that is what inspired their style of music and vocals.
Mind you,

If they can't be forced back into the sea then I'm happy enough for everyone one of the species to be stored in large underground aquariums til the end of their days

I don't think this is as bad as first meets the eye, there appears to be a kerb there and it is this that the piper trips over backwards on. The shove itself wasn't actually particularly hard, certainly not by the copper who the crowd then start sticking their fingers in the face of.

You must have heard them good awful uilleann pipes? What a evil noise that is. I strangely have a couple of friends who attempt to play um
Yep, evil. I think the Romans used to use bagged wind instruments to scare horses during battle.
Clearly then, any use of a bagpipe is a form of aggressive animal cruelty, unless of course, as some of those ladies were doing, they are used on top of rocks and on empty bridges, and only when wearing a minimal amount of clothing to demonstrate no other weapons are present.
Anyone else should be locked up.

My suspicions were right. As you say, disgraceful to do that on Remembrance Sunday. The OP appears to have gone quiet on the issue too.
I stand by my comment that it was unreasonable force used by the officer.
The veteran was wrong to try to go beyond the police line but that doesn't excuse the shove, all the police had to do was stand firm and block him . It's not like the guy tried to attack the police. The veteran didn't have his hands free to be able to break his fall, if he had hurt him self he would have been within his rights to sue and likely win regardless of whether he did it deliberately or not.

Police officers are human beings. This cretin marched up and down practically on their toes trying to get a reaction and he got a mild one for attempting to breach their lines. And now we're supposed to criticise the police?

Yer, think they were all originally war weapons intended to strike fear into the opposition. People have mistakenly been attempting to force a half arsed tune out of um for the last 2000 years. ( Yer Sean, if yer reading this I mean you)

The former soldier was being a d1ck and got a little shove.
He manipulated the situation right from the start to get idiots to attack the police. You fell for it. It happens to us all sometimes, nothing wrong with just holding your hands up and saying you got it wrong.

You didn't say "it was unreasonable force used by the officer" though. You said, "Absolutely disgraceful behaviour by the police. Effectively assaulting a veteran on Remembrance Sunday."
You got sucked in by a pre-planned stunt and now you're doubling down? Why don't you just hold your hands up. What was actually disgraceful if this lot planning this provocation of the police, trying to get one fired, and looking for social media likes, on Remembrance Sunday.
And you keep calling him "the veteran" to try and make it sound worse. We know his name now, that he's an ex ukip prick, and he's admitting he planned this to goad the police.
And you helped them by spreading this fake news. Shameful.
Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Now you ar e just trying to twist what happened to fit your arguement. If you watch the video again he was nowhere near to walking on their toes. if he had tried repeatedly to breach the line then the officers actions could be excused although if he had done that the police would be in their rights to arrest him. The shove was completely uneccessary. Block his route & warn him that was all that was required, both the veteran 's & the policeman actions can be criticised.
