It's No Myth..

..officers prove that on an almost daily basis.

Policing in Britain has “adopted the language of activism” and official guidance has “over-corrected” to combat accusations of racism, one of the UK’s most senior officers has said. Sir Stephen Watson, the chief constable of Greater Manchester police, said he did not believe that “two-tier policing” existed or that forces were biased against white people.

As a famous movie lawyer once said,  it doesn’t matter what he believes what matters is what he can prove, and the evidence is all against him. 

Police had, however, allowed that perception to take hold in part as a result of anti-racism guidance that advised officers to treat suspects differently depending on their ethnicity.

“Particularly in the light of the tragic murder of Henry Nowak, I do understand that this idea that two-tier policing takes place is now widespread,” he said. “I don’t think it’s justified, but I can understand where it’s coming from.”

Well, let me help; it's coming from incidents like this one (now seemingly removed since I first saw it, but it’s an incident where a black guy attacked a white man and the police rolled up and arrested the victim, again. I’ll leave it in in case the poster appeals and it returns):

This is disgusting, @metpoliceuk. The black guy was the aggressor, but it's the white man who the police go after & restrain. pic.twitter.com/8imFKezC4k

And this one:

This was declared a terror attack right away, even though no one died

Southport was not declared a terror attack when 3 children were executed

See how it works https://t.co/u3waPaq5TC

And this one:

I've seen widespread criticism of how this interaction between police and these teenage girls was handled.

For me, one officer appears to escalate the situation by pushing and then drawing his baton. From there, everything spirals out of control.

Watching police officers using…

Especially when compared to this one:  

Police had their hands full in WOLVERHAMPTON by a group of youths as they attempted to make an arrest.

But there were no batons or tasers as we saw used on the white teen girls recently.

Two-Tier policing as per usual. pic.twitter.com/Yhyg0GbnTF

We can all see how police in this country now police 'without fear or favour' and its not at all!

Watson, who is tipped as the potential successor to Sir Mark Rowley as the head of the Metropolitan police, said forces must be “a little less timid about making sure we emphasise our impartiality”.

Practicing some would be a good start! 

“I think we have some lessons to learn … Perhaps we have been uncritical in adopting certain elements of language. We’ve adopted the language of activism,” he said. “We’ve sometimes taken on board what are challenged concepts and we’ve written those into policy and intent – all with the best of reasons – but these issues then get held up almost as exhibit X, as the proof that we do not treat people equally.”

And this man is being tipped as a successor to the head of the Met, when Rowley's gaffes get too numerous to tolerate! 

Watson has been called Britain’s “anti-woke” police chief after he instructed officers not to take the knee during Black Lives Matters protests in 2021 because it would undermine impartiality. He said he would “probably kneel before the queen, God and Mrs Watson, that’s it”.

That won't last, not when he gets a sniff of the top job. 

Do They Just Not Understand The English Language?

A man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a car hit with several people (Ed: maybe the BBC could use some English lessons too) on a busy shopping street in West London.

The Metropolitan Police said a 34-year-old Somali-born driver fled the scene but was stopped in nearby Grange Park a short time later, where he was arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving and attempted murder.

Earlier reports insisted he was 'a Britsh born man of Somali background'...

While counter-terrorism police were involved in the initial investigation, it is not being treated as terror-related. The Met said it was "keeping an open mind as to any potential motive".

Then it's not that open at all, if you have rejected the inconvenient possibility straight away.

What A Pity Sir David Attenborough Doesn't Read The News...

 ...bevause he would stop you from embarassing yourself with this headline.

Kevin Murphy, who runs Norfolk Wildlife Rescue, told the BBC he would attempt to capture the feline, believed to be a Savannah cat, first spotted on Tuesday night in the Bramerton area, near Norwich.A Savannah cat is a hybrid breed created by crossing a serval, which is native to sub-Saharan Africa, with a domesticated cat breed.

Even if it turned out to be a serval, it wouldn't be classed as a 'big cat'. Yes, it's large, but the term doesn't relate to size. 

Geography According To The 'Mail'....

 

I always thought Greece was in the Med. Not the Caribbean!

A Law Designed For Two-Tier Justice From The Start.

Parents risk prosecution for trying to stop their children having gender treatment under a new Labour law, MPs and campaigners fear. The conversion therapy ban means those convicted of trying to change someone's sexual orientation or gender identity could be jailed for five years.

But won’t somehow also apply to the psychiatrists and doctors pushing trangenderism? That's some sloppily written law, then.

It has prompted concerns that the law will criminalise parents for trying to talk to children about their desire to identify as the opposite sex or undergo gender treatment, such as taking puberty blockers and having surgery. Counsellors and priests could also fall foul of the legislation, it is feared.

 Working as intended, I suspect. But even the nutter’s support groups are raising concerns:

The Bayswater Support Group, for parents of trans or non-binary children, said: 'Accusations of psychological or emotional abuse are rife when it comes to transgender identity. ' 

If this bill becomes effective, parents will fear accusations could escalate into a threat of criminal offence.'

everyhing this wretched government touches it somehow makes worse. That’s quite a talent! 

It's As Effective As Attempts To Halt Any Other Crime, Then...

Two young men convicted over the cyber-attack that crippled Transport for London (TfL) in 2024 had long histories of cyber-offending and were both known to law enforcement bodies, the BBC has learnt.

What a shocker. 

Owen Flowers, 18, from Walsall, and Thalha Jubair, 20, from east London, pleaded guilty on Monday to carrying out the attack. The breach disrupted TfL services for months, affected the personal data of millions of people and left all 28,000 TfL employees needing to reset their passwords in person.

It left me unable to top up my Oyster card online for a fortnight, it could only ne done at the machines in Tube stations, and I was unable to check the balance.

The BBC has discovered the authorities made frequent attempts to curb Flowers and Jubair's offending - raising questions over the effectiveness of such interventions with young cyber-criminals.

Locking the little shits up where they had no access to computers should have been the first option. not the last, 

Experts have told the BBC the case also indicates that perpetrators of cyber-attacks often do not appear to understand the real world consequences of their actions.

Or could it be that they just don't care, like all criminals? 

The National Crime Agency (NCA) says it highlights the need for its officers to be given additional powers.

Of course they do.  

... the BBC has learned Flowers initially came to the attention of police shortly after he turned 16 years old. In October 2023 he was caught carrying out low-level cyber-crime and visited by West Midland's Regional Cyber Crime Unit prevent officers. Police say that during the visit Flowers did not engage with officers and was given a cease and desist order to deter him from further offending.

Why the soft touch?  

During the investigation, NCA officers uncovered evidence that computer systems belonging to two US healthcare organisations, SSM Health and Sutter Health, had also been infiltrated and damaged. Flowers later pleaded guilty to offences relating to those hacks. He is still wanted in the US. After being charged, Flowers was released on bail under strict conditions. He breached those conditions twice, in March 2025 and May 2025.

Jubair has 22 previous convictions in total and began offending at 14 years old. He is also wanted in the US in connection with cyber-crimes that allegedly stole and extorted $87m (£66.1m) from victims.

They should just let the Americans have them both, they have no patience with this sort of thing and sentences are far more realistic. 

Both Jubair and Flowers have been diagnosed with autism and the court heard that Jubair has depression and a severe mood disorder.

How convenient. 

And It's Not Because Of The Furniture!

A migrant from Afghanistan who stabbed a man to death in central London lost control because he is a 'traumatised refugee', a court heard.

Oh, bless… 

Farmanullah Sherzad, 26, was found with multiple knife wounds in Abbey Orchard Street in Westminster on March 27 this year before being pronounced dead in hospital. Today, Sulaiman Tajzai, 18, denied murder and knife possession in a public place.

Sums up modern Britain - invader killing invader, defended by invader, of course: 

Tajzai appeared at the Old Bailey via videolink from HMP Belmarsh wearing a white T-shirt and spoke only to confirm his name, aided by a Pashto language interpreter. Defending Tajzai, Haroon Khattak said: 'A psychiatrist's report was obtained to deal with whether he is fit to plead.'

And so the majesty of the Great British justice system was set in motion: 

The judge said: 'Firstly, any psychiatric or psychology reports relied upon by the defence have to be served no later than July 21 on the prosecution and the court. 

'By the same date, July 21, the full post-mortem report and the download relied upon by the prosecution must be served. 

'There will be a further case management hearing on July 24 - this is not a direction, more of an indication for the prosecution, because there is a degree of uncertainty about the date now. 

'If the trial date stands on September 2, then trial documents should be served by August 14.'

All that work and taxpayer money going into resolving this, followed by another reminder someone up their is laughing at us all… 

At this point one of the court's desks suddenly collapsed, making a loud bang that startled the usher, who frantically tried to piece it back together. Judge Dennis added: 'I think that brings to an end the hearing, the court is falling to pieces!'

Yes it is, your honour, and the bloody furniture is the least part of it! 

But You Have Such Awful Values And Standards..

The BBC has said it has "no plans" to broadcast a BBC Three documentary series hosted by Ashley Cain after he was accused of using explicit sexist and misogynistic language in historic social media posts. A second series of Ashley Cain: Into the Danger Zone was commissioned and filmed earlier this year, but had not yet been scheduled for broadcast. The BBC said it has "no future projects" with Cain planned.

Ah, well, it's only licencepayer's money, plenty more where that came from, eh? 

In a statement issued on Thursday night, a BBC spokesperson said: "The posts by Ashley Cain, albeit from many years ago, are completely unacceptable. 

"The BBC has clear requirements around vetting and social media checks, which are undertaken by the production company. In this instance, the process clearly failed and we are investigating why. We are continuing to strengthen our processes to ensure everyone working for, and on behalf of, the BBC meets our values and standards.

Your values and standards?  But they are far worse than anything this bloke is accused of! Tolerating smut on the radio if it pulls in listeners, employees playing Miss Marple on the clock, the slavish focus on progressive hobby-horses, and don't get me started on the nonce issue....

It's Not Just Babies!

A couple beat and starved a vulnerable man to death after he was sent to live with them by social workers, a court heard. Rubin Blount, 28, resembled a 'walking skeleton' in the weeks before his death and was seen scavenging for food in bins, it is claimed. When he died he weighed just seven stones and had suffered multiple rib fractures, a fractured spine and cigarette burns, jurors were told.

How did he end up with them? Well, Reader, of course it's social services, who are giving Nazi camp guard and train signalling staff a run for their money in the 'sending people to their death' stakes. The only different thing here was they did it to an adult. 

She told jurors that Newton was a 'sort of step-brother' to the victim, having been raised by Mr Blount's father. But she said the defendants - who were described in court as 'recovering drug addicts' - kept Mr Blount in their council house 'for their own financial benefit' and abused him 'for their own fun and kicks'.

because everyone knows that recovering drug addicts are just as responsible as gay men! 

The court was told Mr Blount, who had a low IQ and learning disabilities, spent the first 20 years of his life living with his parents Eric and Jeanette Blount, until there were 'some concerns' in 2015 which led to him moving in with the defendants.

out of the frying pan and into the fires. Did they do any due diligence at all? 

Miss Josephs said : 'It was agreed with all including social services that he would move in with the defendants.The court heard James managed his finances and bank card, receiving £1,100 in benefits for all three of them into Mr Blount's account. The walls of their 'disgusting' house, which had no heating, were covered in mould and stank of urine, Miss Josephs said.

Guess that’s ‘no’ then! 

 Miss Josephs told jurors: 'You may have questions or concerns about how it is he was left to live with these people…without any ongoing support. 

'These may be valid questions, but they are for another day.

And don't bother asking them, they've probably already written their statement, with promises to 'learn lessons'. they have form, after all.
