Got linked this the other day. Anyone here actually living in London have an opinion? Sounds like she's got a hard job on her hands should she get elected  Also rather curious. WTF is a "ken tax"?

We have our own version of Rodney King ,
Delbo King who was caught on CCTV 'attacking' the fists and feet of 4 coppers,
And the police who were caught on camera (surprised the CCTV tapes did not vanish) were cleared by the IPPC.
And before somebody asks , he is an ex para , and served queen and country.

Edit: As to the Rodney King thing, if they guy was a known criminal who had doen some pretty serious things, admittedly almost impossible to know on the spot, then I'd have no problem with said person being beaten to a point where they were unable to feed themselves ever again. |
note my point Delbo King was an ex para and not like Rodney, wile Rodney can be villified (a wife beating git, who went on to rape hookers and do drugs after)as he was a criminal before and after the event.
But then again its a lose lose situation ie like chavs you beat them up too badly , it might feel good for those few minutes , but it'll feel bad when taxes go up up and away to pay for his dole cheque, (I heartilly recommend a move away from the pyramid scheme which social security runs on in the UK).

F**k having that bint running the city!
OK, Ken is far from perfect, but what skeleton's does she have lurking in her closet.
I like Ken, he puts his foot in it with the press, and so he should. Most journalists are c*nts who will side whatever story will get the headline.

Ken is an utter twat, who epitomises everything that is bad about this country and its political system. His worst attribute is his constant weasely whine of "it's for your own good" as he claws yet more money from our pockets.
I'm a Tory and so biased in this case, but she talks a lot of sense, and has a lot of policy ideas that I agree with.

Most of London could probably stand a few such incidents.
The case of Mr King is an interesting one - I don't remember the footage too clearly, but I do know that to the uninitiated, restraint of a suspect can often look excessive when it isn't. Not necessarily the case here, but worth bearing in mind.

according to this link, https://www.wsws.org/articles/2004/mar2004/brit-m24.shtml
delbo wasnt exactly innocent of any wrong doing, and didnt exactly come quietly
obviously the police shouldnt have then used it as an excuse to give him a good kicking, but if he hadnt been causing trouble, he would not have got the kicking. |
thats not a very good excuse though , so you were caught speeding = green light to give you a kicking?,
its not ok to attack people who break into your home after they have been subdued, same situation here,
And another point (have you seen the actual video?) , a passer buy makes a comment (unheard) the cop doesn't like this and decides to set on the passer by as well, it this acceptable ? , just cus cops don't like you you can be persecuted?

this is so getting out of hand in that cops NEVER have any responsibility
they shoot innocent people carrying table legs , no charges ,
they shoot a naked man in his bed in Liverpool no charges
They shoot a brazilian guy alter the records erase the CCTV no charges,
its much like the driving anology people fresh from their tests stick to the law for fear of its wrath , they then get away with stuff thinking they were caught and have scant regard for the law because they know they can get away with alot of illegal stuff.
