I Thought This Was England..?

Police will be carrying out “enhanced patrols” to make sure celebrations of Pakistan’s independence day next week remain peaceful.
Newham police have announced they will work with local Muslims to prevent the “congestion and disruption” caused by some revellers in previous years.
Oh?
Police said this may include prosecuting drivers and seizure of vehicles for “inconsiderate, anti-social or illegal driving”.
You mean…they wouldn’t do this any other day?

The police certainly turn a blind eye to egregious parking on a massive scale around a local mosque near me when it's a special coven.

For me, Pakistan can never be 'independent' enough. Ideally it should be totally detached from the earth, floating gently off into blind oblivion...

Greencoat, I assume that is after all those that came from there have returned.

If they're all so happy about Pakistan's independence, why aren't they there enjoying it?
