A Blind Pig Finds An Acorn...

Jason Okundaye on the murder of Henry Nowak in the 'Guardian' is the article you would expect from an inveterate race-baiter, full of 'But black people even more so!' bullshit, but there is one interesting observation:

Our leaders have been worse than useless.

 Yep, gotta agree with that, though not for the same reason...

Can none of our political leaders bring themselves to say that two-tier policing is a myth, and inequality and racism is still present in the institution? 

No, they clearly cannot because we all see this incident as a prime example of it, and even Starmer knows that trying to convince voters that up in down and north is south isn;t going to wash this time.

Can none of them say that the life of any person in police custody should be preserved in any circumstance?

That's an impossible ask: all they can do is try, not guarentee. People who have swallowed drugs, people witth undiagnosed medical conditions...police deal with all of these on a daily basis. And that was not the case in this instance, they didn't even try, contrary to their training.

And we've not forgotten what training they have put into practice! 

This is, indeed, the crux of the matter. We have the reciepts, and we aren't going to forget them. No matter how much chaff the establisment throws up in attempts at deflection.
