Current Affairs Met Police

I don’t think it was purposeful. They probably didn’t expect it to escalate to the level it did and then they didn’t have enough officers to properly deal with it. As has been mentioned before they didn’t have the numbers to make lots of arrests at the time as every arrest would take out 2 to 3 police at least. After Southport though they realised that things could escalate and then were better prepared at most of the subsequent rallies/protests that happened.

Would be very weird to purposefully leave your officers in danger.
I cant remember the last time over 50 officers were injured.
 
It is a lot, but the ad hoc nature of the response and the bravery of the cops in refusing to allow the mosque to be attacked (which is what withdrawing would have resulted in) probably led to more injuries than there would have been if they'd been expecting it.
There wasn't a dog squad and a tear gas crew anywhere in the northwest? With all the intelligence throughout the day before it? what's happened to boris' water cannons? I fully expect some of the racist morons are on football banning orders, why not utilise some of that stuff to prevent them traveling?
Did you see how mob handed the travel for andrew windsor up to scotland got? people with eggs arrested, people with signs.

@PhilM sprinkler systems on street lights is the answer. It's obvious when you think about it. Even if you don't.

Grandmother attacked by your police.
 
Nothing, that's what you've got, 'kin nothing.

Seen straight through you here.

Shambles!
I'm glad that you finally agree with me. Men should not hit women. If the allegation that the in copper in question has hit her then I hope he gets whats coming to him.

It's also good, Jay, to have seen you retract from calling the police pigs and scum and the like as you now meec them to deal with these riots and right wing bigots.

I'll nit entertain you further on the matter.
 
Failure.

Couldn't go in two footed on me with deranged allegations fast enough, yet presented with this have failed to condemn even to 50% of your previous vitriol.

I surmise an agenda. I wonder if you and del trotter are colleagues in uniform. Oh I wonder.

(PS, It's John, not Jay)
