April 1968, RAF Flight Lieutenant Alan Pollock flew his Hawker Hunter jet under Tower Bridge . He made the daring, unauthorized flight at over 300 mph to protest the government's defense cuts and its failure to properly celebrate the RAF's 50th anniversary
Keir Starmer: “there is no such thing as two-tier policing”.
Police chiefs today: “we will review controversial guidance advising officers to treat ethnic minorities differently”.
The absurdity of modern Britain.

Supporters of VAT on private school fees keep claiming that this policy has had no discernible effect on private schools.
They are wrong.
My new analysis in @thetimes shows that more large private schools collapsed last year than ever before: https://t.co/S22dsSAZsG

Six years ago the House of Commons & House of Lords held a minute’s silence in memory of George Floyd, a man in America. They then debated race & policing.
As Britain watches the video of Henry it would be nice if our leaders offered him & his family the same courtesy.
Two things immediately come to mind after seeing the body cam footage of the horrendous treatment of Henry Nowak.
Firstly, during Telic and Herrick, if a British soldier detained a suspected enemy combatant who said he’d been shot, couldn’t breathe, couldn’t support his own body weight and was drifting in and out of responsiveness, we’d have treated him as a casualty first and a detainee second.
That’s not kindness. That’s professionalism.
Even if he’d been shooting at us ten minutes earlier, once he was under our control we had a duty of care. The idea that four police officers couldn’t work out that a lad accused of a petty crime, who couldn’t even sit upright, might require immediate medical attention is beyond belief.
Secondly, Starmer and Hermer have spent years publically demanding scrutiny, investigations and accountability over wafer thin allegations made against British soldiers operating in war zones thousands of miles away.
Fine.
So where’s that same energy now?
A young man repeatedly told police he’d been stabbed. He was handcuffed, ignored, and died in their custody.
If the standards they demand of soldiers mean anything at all, then they should be demanding answers over Henry Nowak too, and making lots of noise about it.
No excuses. No silence. No more double standards.
You will note the Mandleson files were held back so they could be released on the day that animal was sentenced.
All planned by @Keir_Starmer so he could push them under the headlines.
