all expenses paid holidays courtesy of the tax payer. all the places here twinned with somewhere in France are just scams for councillors to get free holidays too.

The fact it's likely more of a Bunterish junket aside, In what way would promoting London/Scotland and their products and services or as a tourist destination be beyond their remit?

You have a point but I doubt he’d be recognised over there and I don’t see how influential his, “Have you thought about London” shtick could be. As such he surely has more important work to do back home.

100 odd people.
Good number of them fighting.
Blocking Ambulance from getting into site.
His death filmed but nobody's coming forward with the footage - strange innit...thought BLM?

"As people ran away one man knocked over my bin and from my balcony I asked him why he did that. He threatened me saying he was going to ‘slap me up’ and that he knows where I live and would come back for me," she said.

We should move the Capital up to York. Let London become it's own little cunt-tree. I'm sure Khan would love to be Emperor Khan.

More drama in Landan Tahn today.

Black man tasered by police and 'falls' into the Thames.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-61689308

Quote:
Chelsea Bridge: Man Tasered in critical condition after River Thames fall

Police were called to reports of a man armed with a screwdriver and shouting on Chelsea Bridge Road, in Chelsea, just after 09:00 BST on Saturday.

Officers challenged a man in his 40s before shooting him with a Taser. He then fell into the river.


Carefully worded throughout the first part of the article but, yeah, a bit loose in the middle BBC Laughing

Quote:
He eventually gets up and runs to the side of the bridge, and is seen to pull himself over the edge before either officer can reach him.

Lugs himself into the drink after being tasered 3 times Shocked

Deaded.

BBC have edited the text Shocked

Quote:
A man who was rescued from the River Thames after police used a Taser to try to restrain him has died.

The Met Police said it was called at 09:03 BST on Saturday to reports of a man shouting on Chelsea Bridge Road armed with a screwdriver.

He was rescued from the water but died in hospital that night, The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said.

It is investigating the contact the Met Police had with the man who was in his early 40s.

The IOPC said investigators had obtained accounts from the officers involved and secured police body-worn video footage.

'Sincere condolences'
Steve Noonan, IOPC director, said: "We have spoken to the man's family to express our sincere condolences and explain our involvement.

"Our sympathies remain with them at this terrible time.

"Our independent investigation is under way into the police actions at the bridge and we have begun gathering and reviewing evidence."

The Met said officers "challenged a man on Chelsea Bridge".

"A Taser was discharged but this did not enable the officers to safely detain him," the force said.

"The man, who is believed to be aged in his 40s, subsequently entered the river."

Commander Alexis Boon said: "My thoughts are with the family of the man at this very difficult time.

"I offer my sincere condolences to them for their tragic loss.

"Officers go to work every day to keep the public safe, and so any incident in which a person comes to harm following contact with police is understandably concerning."


Subsequently ended up in the river? He jumped in on his own accord Rolling Eyes

Particularly like the 'when a person comes into harm following contact with the police' line. How and why are they apologising for this?

Maybe a tranq gun would be more use to deescalate situations with the neuro-diverse?

I guess the Twitards didn't watch the video to see it was a black officer who tased him? How can it be racism if both people involved were black? Confused

It's the institutionally racist police force that the black person belongs to, so therefore a 'insert nasty racist slur here'.

It's racist because the police didn't taser him well enough.

Must have been a hell of a jolt if it threw him across the pavement, over the parapet and into the Thames. Laughing Thinking
