My point is complete pedantry but it's not for wearing a t shirt. I'm sure he'll be released without charge later on. He almost certainly will be released without charge but is that not the point, the Met clearly couldn't wait to lock them up for a few hours, I don't get how that's not an abuse of their power, rather than policing a protest properly they are sticking folk in the cells as the easy option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason it's not an abuse of power is because they've managed to get ridiculous powers to deter protesters. The government have been disgraceful with this stuff over the past few years. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not be an abuse of power but the law is certainly being applied unequally, because there is simply no chance that the pro royalty demonstration will be policed as strictly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molotov Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I stuck the TV on and it went on to last channel and BBC1 Scotland came on. I noticed that there were no people at all outside Buck Palace. Loads of police guarding empty pavements but no one about. Is that what normally happens? Is there a big rush down the Mall later on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 If only the MET had the same low threshold for employing rapey, murderous b*****ds they might have a bit more respect and credibility. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
