    You are evading backing up your stance. There is nothing about resisting arrest. In fact the police always put crap out after they blunder just like they did with Menezes saying that he was running, jumping over a barrier, had winter clothing, illegal emigrant etc. All police lies

          it follows that such events, while may happen, are in no way indicate systematic problem with UK police.

          So in conclusion you are an idiot paddy - you should visit the world a bit (especially 3rd world countries like Russia) in order to appreciate the fine job UK police does.

              I read far more reports about criminals doing all sort of tulip, say this:

              Spitting yob and grinning accomplice jailed for trying to derail passenger train | Mail Online

              Should I conclude that all British people are like that? That would be very stupid thing to do.

                I socialise with cops and have done for years. What gets reported in the press doesn't come near what actually happens on a daily basis.

                  And what happens on daily basis, please share?

                  Cops kick the tulip out of people who were just minding their own business?

                  Cops extort money from local businesses?

                  Cops set innocent people up to be be wrongly convicted of crimes they did not commit?

                  FFS, in this country drivers don't even need to have driving license, car ownership documents with them to drive car - the law is so lenient it gives very little scope for police to feck about. In 12 years in UK I have never been stopped by police - and in Moscow I was stopped 3 times ffs.

                    Yes Paddy and everything the BBC says is gospel.

                    A court heard yesterday that Mr Whatley, right, was originally pulled over in a country lane in Monmouthshire by traffic police who tried to issue him with a fine for not wearing a seat belt.

                    But when an officer went round to the passenger side, the car lurched forward and he was knocked over.

                    Mr Whatley told Caerphilly magistrates court, South Wales, that he then drove off because he thought the matter had been dealt with, felt ‘frail and vulnerable’ and was worried he would suffer another stroke.

                    The police followed him for 17 minutes, during which time he did not break the speed limit. Mr Whatley said he thought the blue lights and siren of the police car meant the officers were giving him an escort home.

                      FK that's massive police brutality - thank you paddy for opening my eyes on it!!!

                      Looks like I'll have to get bullet proof Range Rover - very expensive but I bet face of a cop breaking my screen would be priceless? I hope they don't pack RPGs though
