Policing in the UK

[Two Gun Bob]

Or those enviromental enforcement agents that attepmt to fine people, you don't have to stop when they ask you to or give them any details they ask, of course they can citizens arest you but with minimim force, you can still pull away and walk off

Apparantly it’s a criminal offence to refuse to give personal details under Section 8(a) of the Environmental Protection Act. The maximum penalty for not providing this information is £1,000 and a criminal conviction. Nothing to stop you walking away or jumping a cab or catching a bus to freedom I guess.  Probably safe to disregard the £1,000 fine as it's just the same spouted nonsense the TV licence use to create alarm angst and distress.

As I understand it you don't have to furnish your details to the police unless you are suspected of commiting a crime.

You generally don't have to talk to the police. You do in some specific circumstances. But you always have rights.

The problem is the only policing that makes the news is when they are being racist, heavy handed, or joining in with protesters/ pride etc. Like everything else on the news and social media this is done to bait the 'gammon' and 'woke' in equal measure to get them dribbling over their keyboards.
99.9999% of policing is fine.

Absolute shithole, all to do with a mum having her kids taken off her by the social apparently. One had fell out of a window. So the community has decided to set fires to all the shite they dump in the street.

And now they're all out on the street on tik tok live filming it for clout.

Harehills is a mess and It was mainly Roma at 5pm but we are blessed with tik tok etc now so a free for all has developed which the police appear to be unable to contain. Unfortunately if the area burned to the ground it may look little better than before, old terraced back 2 backs etc.
Poses a lot of issues given the initial trigger was social services, childcare related. New government and some of the footage makes it very easy to identify eg the bloke starting a bus fire.

Once that pack mentality kicks in people start doing stupid shit, delicate situation for the police now as if they go in proper heavy they will be worried about it becoming something even bigger. They deserve some batons round there legs.

Romanians started this trouble. After social services took children away from a family fo safekeeping. Lots of video footage so hopefully most of the trouble makers will be rounded up.

Heat is a factor with inner city tensions - I remember the Moss Side riots subsided when it rained, so Saturday it might cool off.

Good point, shouldn't laugh but the Roma scrap metal blokes who live in Harehills will be wfh tomorrow and one already has retired to Monaco. It makes Cheetham Hill look like Wilmslow.
