Been in the job two minutes and backtracking quicker than Bradford Citys defence.

 

Starmer would he's looking for anything to get his rating higher.

 

I kid you not, this was the ad under the reply box. Makes a change from El Tangoman and them asking me to tell them how unfairly the media treats him.

 

@king karl - how can I do it though? ( Did it last year but can't remember how).

 

Pay Pal is the easiest way if you have it ?

 

I think the athletes are disputing the driving like a tw@t bit. The rules for stop and search are that you have to have reasonable suspicion that you'll find something (unless it's a section 60 search which only applies in certain areas at specific times.) They were stopped and searched under section 1 which means the police need that reasonable suspicion. Here's the reason the police gave for the stop and search:

In this case, the force said patrols were taking place in response to an increase in violence involving weapons in the area, and in addition the vehicle was being driven suspiciously.

So a young couple with a baby in the back of their car have been stopped because of an increase in violence in the area because they were driving suspiciously. So if the athletes are correct that they weren't driving erratically then what was the reason for stopping a young couple? That's the crux of this. Someone is not telling the truth. If it can be proved that they were driving safely then what is the reason for the stop? The athletes perceive it to be racial profiling which is unlawful.

You posted this picture on your FB wall the other week with innocent intentions, I'm sure:



You've had discussions on this thread about how all the kids of your era in Bradford had it tough growing up poor. Your white privilege means that you're not 9 times more likely to be stopped and searched than a black person. Do these stop and searches result in more arrests? Not according to Home Office reports:

2016 Home Office report "no discernible crime-reducing effects"

Backed up by the government's 2018 Serious Violence Strategy.

 

Their car had tinted windows though so how could the bobbies know colour of their skin even though it's irrelevant anyway...

 

The statistics show the likelyhood of being pulled over in London by the police is great determined by your skin colour. To put that down to institutionalised racism doesn't tell anywhere near the whole story, but unfortunately that is out of the remit of today's agenda driven protests. There clearly will be a percentage of officers that deal with incidents biased on skin colour, I would wager this figure is an irrelevance compared to the other combed reasons as to why the police chose to pull over a vehicle. The police are being hung out to dry, yet the authorities have the damn nerve to be running recruiting campaigns tell prospective clients that its a great job.

 

By not STANDING up and nailing it from the start, does it not sicken you to see all those young lads taking the knee before a match not daring to stand up...?

 

Last night during one of the games "Black Lives Matter" was projected onto the screen to the right of the score.

 

Yeah, seen it, if it happens at City (and it will) I will just let out a groan and turn my back....

 

And Sky’s character assignation of the UK police force continues.

https://news.sky.com/story/assault-burglary-and-animal-cruelty-police-officers-convicted-of-crimes-working-for-uk-forces-12024264

Nowhere in the article does is it state how many people are employed as Police Officers or PCSO’s in this country. It’s approximately 160,000. So the percentage of those with convictions is 0.001%

News story.

He wasn’t white.

 

Shocking and just goes to show police targeting non whites.

 

You sure?

 

must have been the odd one out at family parties.
He was 2nd generation North African I think - but then again so is a vast swath of the French population.
This isn’t been heavily reported because is not been classed as ‘racist’ cop killing.

 

yep


Mr Chouviat was of Algerian origin. In France, young black North African men claim they are disproportionately targeted by police.
