It has been some time since I had the misfortune to watch this. Competition for most grotesque video montage since early 2020 has been fierce, but this must be a podium finish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOEdAXGBGCo&t=170s

On Friday (23 Sep 22), the Home Secretary wrote a rather bland open letter to police leaders, the core message of which appears to be to tell them to buck up. Amongst her recommendations is the need for restoring trust and she writes, 'Unfortunately, there is a perception that the police have had to spend too much
time on symbolic gestures, than actually fighting criminals. This must change. Initiatives on
diversity and inclusion should not take precedence over common sense policing.' It is not clear whether she considers policing of the Coronavirus Restrictions in her 'symbolic gestures' category, but it should be pointed out that police have not been forced into this position. They have chosen to respond to so-called public opinion and the policy coming from government and the commercial media. There is much more to the disintegration of the relationship between police and public than the Home Secretary will be willing to concede, and this is the subject of a forthcoming article for UK Column. She also makes reference to Operation Soteria and her intent to charge more rape cases, which appears to represent a misunderstanding of the way in which rape allegations are investigated. Her full letter is here.
