Pick your own laws to follow..

[1198]

The Police are currently under fire for arresting people at the recent vigil for the sadly murdered Sarah Everard. A few were arrested for public order and coronavirus regulation breaches apparently when about 1500 gathered in South London. There’s calls for Cressida Dick to resign it seems.
My question is where can I read the list that tells me which rules / laws I can safely ignore and which must I follow? Why are the public screaming that they shouldn’t be hauled away in cuffs when the same public can’t wait to cry for blood at other unauthorised gatherings?
I’m not sure where to look - although if the Green Party member gets her way I’ll be locked up in my house after 6pm anyway.

If people weren't moaning about the old bill arresting all the women, they'd be moaning about them not arresting lots of women all pressed up against each other during a pandemic. She may have a shit name, but Ms Dick would've been wrong whatever she did.

I think the problem here is lack of consistency of approach by the police. There have been protests during the various lockdowns and restrictions that have been allowed to happen without direct police action. Given that one of their own is in the frame, it would have been a lot wiser to apply discretion to this one rather than taking direct action.

One of their own being "the Bad Guy" isn't going to make it easy under any circumstance, as we well know.

I think it was disgraceful* that there were shoutings of "Shame on You". Although I guess maybe something happened at the vigil that the "vigilantes" thought was unfair. Who knows.

Anyway, the murder went straight to the Police Investigation thingie, and (so far) there seems to have been no cover up - except by the perp and his Mrs - a fucking builders bag, disgraceful*.

It was not one of those frontline police who murdered the girl.
At that level, they probably didn't even know their colleague was done for perviness the week before. Probably didn't even know who he was.

Here's a solution, tell them noone will be fined but anyone who attended now has to self-isolate for 14 days, under threat of a much bigger fine if they don't.

Policing is becoming a joke. Allow them to police and back them up or just give up.

Second thoughts, Lets have a candle lit demonstration about police picking on bikers because we are a minority group in time for summer. #No speed camera vans in the peak district.

The protest vigil (Jess Phillip’s hasty correction on the Andrew Marr show ) got exactly what it wanted, and it was going to go that way whatever. The organisers had been in discussions with the police and couldn’t find a way to enable ‘safe havens’ so they called it off and held a national “doorstep vigil” instead. Not good enough for the activists though. Ribenapigeon got it right on the SJW thread when he said this was some kind of pre-packaged campaign just waiting for a trigger. I think the curiously-timed story about Princess Latifa (Dubai’s missing princess) a month ago was part of that plan but it went off like a damp squib.

Has there been a trial for the suspect other than trial by media as part of the rabble?
It's a little ironic that the deceased was allegedly a marketing manager.

Where are the judges that stuck Mr Robinson in jail for interviewing convicts outside a court when you need them.

[Robby]

The police are trying to avoid a repeat of the 2011 Mark Duggan case and subsequent rioting. Possibly worse, because after a year of lockdown people have a lot of steam to blow off.

Likewise, they have to have a presence at the vigil and carry out a few arrests to reflect the fact that the gathering was illegal, because permission had been declined. I expect the people arrested will be released quickly and quietly without charge.

Never mind the six year old's getting their heads cut off, this time the perpetrator is a White. Male. Cop. That ticks all the boxes, it's time for the sisterhood to reclaim the streets, expect Patsy the Tavistock crisis actor and her screeching coven outside parliament tomorrow.

I was referring to Emily Jones, who was allowed to pass into history without nearly as much fuss.

Well are you going to show us your junk link?
I've been googling people all bloody day, and now I'm too tired and fractious to google for more weirdness, unless it relates to liquid chocolate and sturdy men wearing nothing but army boots.

Year ago next teusday. Equally if not more upsetting, but no rush for a "far reaching multi agency" look at the mental health provisions.

I quite often wonder ... y'know that song called "You're moving out today", really old song from the 70s, where she's chuckin' out her wanky boyfriend and all his belongings, and there's a line that says "Your map of Mozambique, your waterbed that leaks".

I always wonder why that guy has a map of Mozambique.

I wouldn't fret too much once the new policing bill gets through.

Then who knows the old sus laws will return in full.

Just like the good old days eh.
