Saw that in the other thread, GMP have set up the appeal for footage of 3 incidents within about 30mins of each other apparently. The Starbucks one, one at baggage reclaim and the head kick / stomp one.
½ expecting them all to be the same protagonists tbh.
I'll be amazed if they are fighting with themselves (before plod).
 
I see the lawyer for the civilians involved have appointed a new solicitor.
The mouth piece they had originally came across as a right whopper.
Hopefully that calms down some of the hype surrounding this.

As an aside, who's leaked the videos so far? And how were there two incidents in an airport before the third and there's so far no hint at video there? And how come armed police seem to only have turned up at the third? And why to arrest only one of the two duckheads*? How has there been an altercation on the plane - aren't there undercover cia fbi marshalls on flights now? how's it took 5 days for the cops to ask for witnesses and phone footage when they had a statement re their injuries primes for minute one?

A very peculiar affair. In an international airport no less.
 
How so? Which side should he come down harder on?
From what I’ve read, he’s kind of sitting on the fence imo.

He's been in the coppers camp from minute one.

And he seems to be crowing about having seen footage that adds 'context'. The fact of the matter is there is no context. The feller was tasered and immobile on the floor and he got a kick to the head and a stamp on the head.

But Burnham wants everyone to be blinded by this earlier piece of video and for that to be an excuse for what happened.

No one knows yet what happened in a Starbucks earlier to those two later videos, btw, so Burnham is talking through his hoop about context.

Its a criminal case.

Is it any wonder we havent had 20 camera angles yet of each incident.

What are you even chatting here Dave?

Burnham: he's made a fool of himself. All he needed to do was to say an inquiry will be formed and report back. But he couldn't help himself getting involved on the side of the coppers.

He'll pay for that politically.

Mr Burnham said: “Following incidents in the run-up to the footage people have seen, four individuals were arrested and are now on police bail. It is frustrating that we have not been able to put more video into the public domain but that is because this is a live investigation.

“People now need to step back and allow the IOPC’s [Independent Office for Police Conduct’s) criminal investigation into the officer’s conduct to move forward, alongside the parallel GMP investigation into other potential offences, so that a complete picture can be presented.

“Given all these investigations are ongoing, it would not be appropriate to comment further.”


He told Sky News on Sunday: “It’s a complicated situation, a very violent situation, actually, and there were issues on both sides.

“That’s why I asked other people not to rush to judgement because of the complexity of it and, simply, everyone who’s having their say, nobody has got all of the facts. Nobody is in possession of the complete picture.”



I disagree, fair comments for me.
