15 police officers hurt in brixton overnight

( don't need to start a new thread on every minor news item - can do some grouping - but, yes it can be challenging for others who only read the first post.)

Ah yes you are.

yes I kind of am,
Inadequate examples in the press of people just getting along, the BBC/Lammy/social-media ... all putting out the fire with gasoline.

If the media indoctrinates black people that any encounter with the police will be acromoniouss - it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy

 

[Tony Edwards]

No it appears it was carried over when the BLM post was deleted. That thread became a mess of conflicted argument on this traffic stop and other topics all mixed together.

So the similarity is 'black people and the police'. Gotcha.

Yeah, this thread should suffer a similar fate IMO.

The same bickering and arguments from the same culprits just reappear in a new thread each time the previous is deleted.

 

[jpaul]

strangely allegorical ... its like the hydra too.

 

[Newbie007]

Same people veering the thread off-topic, same people shouting racism - wish they would just take it to the various SC threads were they can spend all day in the echo chamber calling people whatever they want and having 99% of posters agree with them.

This one will go the same way as the many recent deleted threads.

Threads evolve - get over it, repetition of same arguments that's boring

Interesting stat by Theresa May on r4@1, effectively 25% of 15-24yr black men in London, stopped and searched during lock-down https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000kq06 33" -
(4th wall) TM's still got it, being able to deliver a coherent interview.

Interesting arrest coverage, on last nights tv - pre uk madness.

At least the police are getting a payrise!!!

Hugely overpaid and under worked in my opinion.

After 5 reports I still have 2 drug dealers living at opposite ends of my road.

I'm sure after Friday if you're not wearing a mask they will be out in force to police that!

Brent's not far from Brixton ?

Couldn't the police legitimately stop Dawn Butler for being an incompetent MP.
I suppose the police need to be courteous during her filming her pre-scripted rant

"if you are stopping us because we are driving a nice car ..... "

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCfxsw_rqgY&feature=youtu.be - just onerous, her attitude.

Is that enough, do we think? Should it be higher? And while we are about it why not stop and search an equal amount of the other youth from different ethnicities.

 

[jpaul]

I can't see whether the reasons for stop and search get triaged and published ? that would help me evaluate bias.

Mandatory details
The record must always include the minimum details specified in Code A:

• a note of the self-defined ethnicity of the person being searched (if provided) and, if different, their ethnicity as perceived by the officer conducting the search
• the date, time and place the person was searched
• the object of the search, ie, the article the officer was searching for, such as offensive weapon or bladed article, drugs, stolen property or items for use in theft or criminal damage
• a clear explanation of the legal basis for the search, ie, the reasonable grounds for suspicion or authorisation
• the identity of all officers conducting the search – where recording the names would cause a risk to the officer or if the investigation relates to terrorism, warrant/identification number and duty station can be given instead.

During the lock-down their could have been some (small) bias too, of who was actually on the streets ... having to go out to work, food shopping, fast food, and BLM protests

Five police officers are facing an investigation over the stop and search of British athlete Bianca Williams and her partner in west London. (LINK)

Somehow I really don't see that "independent" investigation standing up any of the complaints by Williams and dos Santos - it is just window dressing

Why on Earth did the Met put the baby on some "watch list"?

Why on Earth did the Met put the baby on some "watch list"?

Of all places a forum full of IT workers could answer that one, surely?

It is also being questioned why a Merlin report, a Met-run database that stores information on children who have become known to the police for any reason, was created for Ms Williams's son.

Don't the future King and Queen have young children?
Since the Met knows about them, I guess that they are on Merlin as well - so all good

Keep having inquests until the narrative is affirmed, a-la Stephen Lawrence.

Remind me, what "narrative" was "affirmed" in relation to Stephen Lawrence
