"It wasn't me, I was only standing near them" 08:33 - May 12 with 877 views | ArnoldMoorhen | TWTD's favourite defence makes an outing on the worldwide stage. The Met doing what the Met does best and then using pretty much the same defence: "It wasn't our Officers, it was Police Officers standing near our Officers." Pretty shocking stuff. Terrible for the woman concerned, who was put in a cell having done nothing wrong, and was just an innocent bystander, but also remember: the members of Republic who had liaised in advance with the Met Police, negotiated times and places of protest, and simply turned up to carry out those agreed plans and had also done nothing wrong and were innocent bystanders. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-65567316 |  | | |  |

Your post highlighted the Met's "Not me guv" defense - them pointing out it was a Lincolnshire plod who make the arrest, the Met merely held the innocent lady for 13 hours before letting her go. Connected - did you see Rowley's completely tone dead response to the criticism of his officers arrests of the Republic guys? Not exactly a mea culpa - more a "meh". https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/sir-mark-rowley-metropolitan-police-officers- |  |
