I think you reach some fine ass levels of policing... 10:56 - Mar 15 with 849 viewsmonytowbray

...when even the government’s resident fascist who wants to set the Navy on asylum seekers and throw them in camps asks questions of the MET’s behaviour.



Getting a bit chilly down there below our feet...

I have to say our resident “Both sides” lot really do smash it when they manage to make Patel look like she has a heart.

Patel is like the Wizard of Oz in human form. No brain, heart or courage.

I am going to opt out of these threads for the week (Am sure many will be pleased)

For no other reason than the debate on policing (and my views are clear) is detracting from the debate of violence against women and how/why the justice system can work better to deliver justice for the victims of sexual violence.

Anyone looking to justify the police actions on Saturday is either trolling or beyond hope, so am going to save it for another time.

My concern, as I have said elsewhere, is that the focus will be on the actions of the individual officers as witnessed in the footage that made the rounds.

Appalling as those actions were to simply look at those is to treat the symptom rather than the disease. A more considered and realistic approach to the vigil, for me, would have been to accept that people were going to turn out, en masse, regardless of whether the original organisers had called off their call for a planned event (it's not like it wasn't all over social media). In that case make it "lawful" by reaching an agreement and use all resources (police and the stewards the organisers say they had readied) to see it went off as peacefully and safely as possible. And despite what Dame Cressida has implied I don't think that seeing the need for a coordinated and planned approach was only possible in hindsight.

So who made the call to not negotiate? And why?

Good thing Patel wasn't making thecall, she'd have had tear gas, baton charges and the SAS on standby.
Funny how she's changed her tune in 24 hours.. anyone would think the government is a populist right wing faction.
