Time To Restructure The Met>

[youngmafbog]

Now running away. My good ness some of the ex Policemen on here must wonder what is happening.

IMHO it's time to bring the Army in whilst the Met is cleared of the liberal do-gooders and then rebuilt by a copper with proper boots on the ground experience (of any race or religion whoever is best for the job).

And at the same time its time to drain the judicial swamp. Start banging these rioters up. If anyone thinks this is about race they are sadly mistaken these are just louts.

Anyone seen Citizen Khan?

they could always restructure themselves out of existence and earn shedloads of kudos from BLM...….

[Theatien]

It is very horrible situation when riot has began in anywhere. Only police can save human life. So always Army or Police should be at alert

[Theland]

I blame the lenient sentencing for much crime including rioting.
£40,000 / year to imprison somebody? Ridiculous!
Longer sentences, and prisons consisting of nothing more than a barbed wire compound out in the wilds, no phones,no mail, no visits, sloppy food should be the conditions, and time added on for BSD behaviour rather than time off for obeying the rules.

They'd have to set up a Royal Commission, Tora.

//...rather than time off for obeying the rules.//

You don't get time off for obeying the rules. You get time off. All prisoners serving determinate sentences are automatically and unconditionally released at the halfway point in their sentence. Judges do have the power to order that two thirds of the sentence is served before release for some of the most serious offenders but it is rarely used. In October 2019 the government announced that the two-thirds arrangement would be extended. But it hasn't.

Have to agree with JNO , This is a job for Prity Useless to sort out.

If the first duty of government is to protect the people, they have failed, in favour of saving money.
If Boris came on TV to address the nation, and announced the measures I stated, his ratings would go through the roof.
The do gooders are a minority, and their voice is too loud.

[Theland]

Can the ex policemen on here explain why truncheons aren't used more widely to fight the rioters?
Break s few bones?

// I think you are confusing strategy and tactics.//

Luhaka souffre d'une plaie longitudinale de 10 cm du canal anal et d'une section du muscle sphinctérien, causés par l'insertion d'un bâton télescopique4, entraînant une incapacité temporaire de travail (ITT) de 60 jours.

an ee-tay-tay ? no it is permanent . His injury is such that he will require an ostomy for the rest of his life, and the police will pay

the lesson to be learnt ? they did it on video so all the initial statements of violence and self defence were shown to be obviously untrue

[Theland]

Break a few bones, not sexually assault them.

[jackthehat]

BLM state Police Service is not fit for purpose = outcry.

Tradtional right-wing thinkers state Police Service is not fit for purpose = head-nodding agreement.

Is it the weather?

[woofgang]

Theland really? You think the police should break bones?

[Theland]

If a rioter attacks a policeman, the policeman should be able to defend himself.
If a whack with a truncheon breaks a collar bone, so what?
It is done in self defence.
