I mentioned the anonymity rule change on the Labour thread. I should have mentioned that. Fair play to Yvette Cooper on this one. It is something that was actually started under the Tories. |

BBC reporting black communities in south London have been left traumatised by the courts verdict that PC Blake is not guilty of murdering the gangster. Also,apparently there is a bounty of £10,000 on PC Blake's head and he is now in hiding. The people putting up £10,000 for Blake's head,need locking up. Interesting. From this thread looks like the 'usual suspects' from those on the left of the political spectrum remain quiet on the issue.Which is good. The acquittal was bleeding obvious and common sense has prevailed. However the woke BBC are still stoking the fires of an allegedly racist Police force. Shameful. www.policeconduct.gov.uk/news/iopc-statement-response-panorama-documentary-chris-kaba-shootingCommunities in south London have been traumatised by gangs, gun crime and violent drug dealers for years. I do not believe they have been traumitised when one of the members of such a gang, guilty of gun crime and violence, has permanently been removed from the streets. And I really don't care if the violent thug that has been shot is black, white, chinese or eskimo. Other ethnicities available on request. It is not about race. But the BBC continue their extreme far left, 'everything is racist' narrative. I haven't spoken on this one mas I have had some family issues to deal with and haven't been posting for a while. However I am at a loss to understand why the PC was named. In fairness in this case neither the PC at the time of the shooting, nor the jury during the case, were made aware of his past record. So even with all the glowing references in court for the defendant, the jury still found the police officer innocent. The family, who were still trying to seek that his past history was kept under wraps after the case, cannot complain that the law has not run its course, or that people were aware of his past criminal activities and that affected or influenced the response and the legal case. Interesting that there is now a bounty on his head, and that many armed officers are turning in their tickets. We either respect the law or we don't. The armed police team response hasn't always been appropriate in the past, but in this case it appears that all due processes have been followed. |

His name was made public after pressure was exerted by the media, including the BBC.... "A judge dismissed concerns about the "real and immediate risk" to the officer, named only as NX121, if his identity was made public. The Met said the decision would be "hugely concerning" for officers. At the Old Bailey, the Recorder of London Mark Lucraft KC decided the officer's name could be made public, along with his date of birth, from 30 January 2024." The decision was made after media organisations including the BBC challenged the officer's legal application to protect his identity on the basis that confidence in the criminal justice system required cases to be held, wherever possible, in public." www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67259635 |

Sorry to hear that you have had family issues to deal with, and hope all is good with you Chesh. Here's my point. Those on 'the left' (some of it quite far left!) on this forum are perfectly happy with the outcome of this case. And would also appear to be concerned that this PC has had his personal details put in the public domain. This is all very good. We are all in agreement. Phew. People should not just blindly follow the far left BBC narrative. It is dangerous. I don't blindly follow the GB news narrative. That's a joke BTW. Keep in touch Sir. We're opposite sides of the political divide, but I always enjoy reading your perspective on things. |

Argentine football hooligan leader shot dead in street..by Robert Plummer, BBC Newsmedia.minutouno.com/p/13f59cbe4a3fdc07fd4bbff9f165b057/adjuntos/150/imagenes/041/955/0041955450/bracamonte-rosario-centraljpg.jpgAndrés Bracamonte (right)The leader of a notorious gang of football hooligans in Argentina has been shot dead near his club's stadium in Rosario. Andrés Bracamonte, known as Pillín, had spent more than 20 years as head of the Rosario Central supporters' gang and had a history of taking part in violent conflicts with rival hooligans. He and his deputy, Daniel "Rana" Atardo, were just four blocks from the Gigante de Arroyito stadium when they were gunned down by a motorcyclist on Saturday. Rosario Central had just played a league match, but Bracamonte did not attend it. He had been banned from matches because of previous incidents and had been accused of money-laundering and extortion by Argentine authorities. The two men were taken to the local Centenario Hospital, but doctors were unable to save their lives. Bracamonte's killing was widely reported by Argentine media, who described it as a settling of scores. Newspapers reported that Bracamonte had a long criminal record and had been the victim of frequent attacks. The most recent was in August, when a bullet grazed his back while he was with his partner, who was also injured. Bracamonte, who was 52, was also accused of having links with a drug cartel known as Los Monos and was under investigation for money-laundering as a result.

Las Vegas man who called 911 for help killed by police in his home..by Brandon Drenon, BBC News
i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/11/17/23/92174287-14093955-image-a-1_1731885214468.jpg
Body camera footage showed Durham in his underwear, holding Alejandra Boudreaux, 31, against a doorframe, as the two struggled with a knifeA 43-year-old man was fatally shot by police in Las Vegas after he called 911 for help while fighting off an intruder in his home. The family of Brandon Durham, including his 15-year-old daughter who was hiding in a nearby room, have asked for the officer to be fired. Mr Durham's teenage daughter said she was "disgusted" with Las Vegas police as they treated him like "the suspect" not "the victim". A lawyer for Alexander Bookman, the officer who shot Mr Durham, said he committed no crimes. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said Mr Bookman, 26, had been placed on paid administrative leave while they conduct an internal review of the 12th November incident. Mr Durham had called 911 to report that two people were shooting outside and were trying to break into his home, police said. Officers responding to the report found cars with broken windows outside. They also noticed damage to the house and heard shouting from inside, police said, prompting Mr Bookman to kick down the front door to enter. Body camera footage released by the police shows Mr Bookman walking through the home with his gun drawn, while screaming and banging can be heard out of view. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/11/17/23/92174221-14093955-image-a-4_1731885852645.jpg
Durham's family say the shooting never should have occurred, as he was the victim of the home invasionTurning the corner of an L-shaped hallway, the officer finds a shirtless Mr Durham wrestling over a knife with a woman wearing a ski mask, later identified as 31-year-old Alejandra Boudreaux. Mr Bookman yells, "hey, drop the knife, drop the knife", seconds before firing a shot that hit Mr Durham and sent him and Ms Boudreaux to the ground. Mr Bookman then fires five more shots at Mr Durham and says "put your hands up", body-worn camera footage released by police showed. Mr Durham was pronounced dead at the scene. Ms Boudreaux was arrested and charged with four counts, including home invasion with a deadly weapon. "I am disgusted in how the Metropolitan Police told my father, after killing him, to stay down," Mr Durham's daughter told local news. "I'm disgusted that the Metropolitan Police will allow me to live fatherless for the rest of my life." The family's lawyer has asked for an immediate arrest warrant for Mr Bookman. “Unlike a civil case, in which an individual’s negligence is at issue, criminal cases require proof of a person’s criminal intent,” David Roger, general counsel for the Las Vegas Police Protective Association, said in a statement to CNN. “While Mr. Durham’s death is tragic, Officer Bookman was doing his job and did not intend to commit a crime.” Citing a police report, local news outlets said Mr Durham and Ms Boudreaux were previously in a romantic relationship. Assistant Sheriff Dori Koren said police did not find a gun on the scene, despite multiple reports of shots fired. The incident brought police shootings back into the spotlight, occurring just days before the justice department opened an investigation into the death of Sonya Massey, who was fatally shot in July by an officer inside her home in Illinois. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/11/17/23/92174285-14093955-image-m-8_1731887267281.jpg
