Brexit, for once some facts.
- Thread starter flecc
- Start date
I fully agree, but let’s wait and see what the full circumstances surrounding this case turn out to be before assuming that it is a murder. It’s looking like it may be a murder because that’s what the cop is charged with, but only the trial will determine if it is a murder.
I think double standards and preconceptions are at play here, depending who one is.
Black, Hispanic, American, especially if poorly dressed likely to get a different approach than that for someone without those too familiar elements.
Very long ago when my job took me around Central London streets I had numerous encounters with tourists wanting directions. My impression then was that all US citizens were meticulously polite, and we've seen how courteously their soldiers can treat people in the countries they invaded, but we all know from the news how very different they can become at times.

Second time in as many months for the guarantor of our Coronavirus safety. He’s not exactly filling me with confidence.
Typically predictable.
As well as a tariff we should expect health warnings similar to those on cigarettes.
Have written to my MP about this.
(Earlier today I got a personal response re my email to him about Cummings. I was pleased about that. He assured me that he had passed on the views of Pembrokeshire.)
Why are face coverings being made mandatory on public transport if they deliver no protection? In fact, they were said to be more hazardous than beneficial. Now, if we don’t wear these hazardous, non beneficial devices, we are going to be issued with a fine. Where’s Boris Johnson, I need him to explain it to me, I don’t understand.
We usually get the best explanations from those with a full and deep understanding both of the issues and the difficulties that some might have in following those issues, whatever they are.
I don't need to write the next sent...
Scotland is, apparently, thinking of making them compulsory.
Adding:
And why wait another 11 days before requiring them on public transport?
And does it apply in Wales?

Minneapolis police made 44 people unconscious with neck restraints
Several police experts said that number appears to be unusually high. "By using this tactic, it's a self-fulfilling tragedy," said one.
Since the beginning of 2015, officers from the Minneapolis Police Department have rendered people unconscious with neck restraints 44 times, according to an NBC News analysis of police records. Several police experts said that number appears to be unusually high.
Minneapolis police used neck restraints at least 237 times during that span, and in 16 percent of the incidents the suspects and other individuals lost consciousness, the department's use-of-force records show. A lack of publicly available use-of-force data from other departments makes it difficult to compare Minneapolis to other cities of the same or any size.

Do you think the Mister Johnson is ever upset about facing Sir Keir Starmer at PMQ?

..not the only thing you don't understand..however this time I suspect you are being coy.
I bet soundwave looks like that
This is my understanding of the policy:
During Lockdown we were all forbidden to meet within two metres those living outside our shared residences and we were banned from making non essential journeys, so our chance of being infected was very low. Therefore our chance of infecting a transport worker in turn was also low and an unnecessary mask a storage risk for any any form of virus or bacteria it came into contact with, making it more threat than benefit.
Lockdown is now eased with many opportunities to meet with others singly or in small groups and wider access to more open premises. Also many more of us are going to work and schools. Together these mean our risk of being infected is much greater and our interaction with public transport much more frequent, thus a greater risk of viral transfer to transport workers.
These tip the benefit balance of face mask wearing on public transport in favour of wearing.
Mostly bunkum of course, but plausible to excuse why the government has once again woken up too late.
