  3. I’ve spent plenty of time in London (am actually in London at the moment), so allow me to comment on the “poshest part of London” characterization. To lead with my conclusion: it isn’t quite.

    London’s Hyde Park is a bit like New York’s Central Park. It’s vast, and all sorts of neighborhoods surround it. The short east flank of Hyde Park is a bit like Central Park South — flagship shopping (Oxford Street / Fifth Avenue), nice offices and not too avant-gard art galleries radiate away from that part. The long south and short west flanks are a bit like the Upper East and Upper West Sides through about the mid-80s. Very high end residential (Kensington Palace / The Dakota), the occasional world-famous concert venue (Royal Albert Hall / Lincoln Center) and major museums (the Natural History Museum / the American Museum of Natural History).

    You see where I am going with this: The long north flank of Hyde Park is a bit like the UES/UWS past the 90s as you reach Cathedral Parkway, Morningside Heights and Harlem. That’s a bit reductionist, but the cheapest and most “colorful” park-side neighborhoods are there: Paddington, Bayswater. The corner of the park where the police had to deploy in force was Marble Arch — the very northeast corner of the park. It’s rather close to Oxford Street (the extreme proximity between “colorful” and posh shopping is very London), but it’s also the anchor of a major corridor of Muslim neighborhoods that run Northwest out of central London along the A5 road. The analogy breaks down somewhat: Muslims are not African Americans — plenty of rich oil sheiks like to spend spend spend on Oxford Street, and the A5 corridor itself is nice enough on an average day if you like “color.” Ask yourself: why is Morocco a popular enough tourist destination, when Liberia is not? But also ask yourself if you’d really want to live in Morocco, even if you’re happy to visit there.

    Had the cops deployed to Hyde Park Corner / Wellington Arch (at the southwest corner of the park) I would grant you that the mini riot took place at the height of poshness — Buckingham Palace is but a stone’s throw from there. But Marble Arch is on the “diverse” side of the park so these events are not entirely surprising to me.

    Agreed that many of the rioters were not strictly local to Marble Arch. But it's quite revealing which end of the park they'll choose to riot in, where the police will allow them to riot (forming only static riot lines, not charging the crowd with mounted officers to disperse it rapidly) and who the rioters were -- not your typical football hooligan, if you catch my drift.

    Also, I meant to say that Wellington's arch is on the southeast side of the park, not the southwest -- a slip up.

    No, most of these people will be "Londoners", whether Afro-Caribbean from Harlesden, Stonebridge or Brixton, South London Somalis, or Africans from Woolwich. Trouble went on til 2 am - a bit late to get the train home to the provinces.

    We'd have more of a clue if we knew exactly which two London schools' pupils had arranged for the water fight which kicked it all off - don't think it was Eton and Harrow.

    (there was also trouble that night in North London (illegal party) and Camberwell (another stabbing at a water fight and more trouble the night after. All police leave is now cancelled until it gets cooler).

    I think you might find there's actually less Arabic signage now. Bayswater is gradually turning into its neighbour to the west, Notting Hill. The fancy shops along Westbourne Grove are slowly spreading east and displacing cheaper stuff like Islamic bookstores.

    There is still the heavily Arabified strip of Edgware Road between Marble Arch and the A40 where ISIS street recruiters were filmed in a recent Channel 4 documentary. I don't see that area changing any time soon. That said, the rioters don't look like Arabs, so this is just an aside I guess.

    There are PLENTY of Black Muslims in London, way too many.
    A nation who imports Blacks or Muslims will inevitably have the good done by a few hugely outweighed by the ills caused by the many, and given that one bad Black or Muslim can hugely upf*uck the good done by a dozen of the good ones, it;s a complete lunacy to allow them to settle in a hitherto peaceful nation that was at ease with itself.

  9. The internet is a double-edged sword that cuts both ways:the foreswing of instant global communication that allows good things to happen more quickly can be cancelled out in a flash by an uncontrolled backswing that cuts to the bone.

    There’s an old saying that this clip verifies: “Bad news travels fast” and ” Whatever happens in America happens here ten or twenty years later”. There’s another one here in Britain that USED to be true ” Whatever happens in America happens here ten years later”.

    Makes one think, no?
    Riots from the excitable diversity easily spurred to rape and murder by the BLA meme has only taken a couple of weeks.
    Thought for today, especially if you are White British.
    Fifty years ago, when I was 17,there were hardly any Blacks or Asians in Britain and hardly any at all in Scotland,they were less than 1% (probably less still.)
    I was about 4 years old before I saw a coloured man.
    I remember it well, as he stabbed me- with the needle he was stitching my hand with. No local anesthetic in those days!
    The next was about 3 years later, a door-to-door Pakistani brush salesman. In the early 60s, coloured bus drivers and conductors became about 5-10% coloured. . I did my recruit training at 17 with a Black Jamaican, which was very unusual. He was pleasant, quite smart, and fitted in just like anyone else who survived the cut, and better behaved than most of us!
    Many of the early immigrants were well educated and aspirational, and, being a minority among a people who were generally tolerant, they minded their “p”s and “q”s. They did, or came here in a promise to, do a useful job in those days of full employment.
    They caused little trouble at all, although the Indo-Paks were doing their traditional industrial scale benefit-fiddling and other frauds, and Britons were a more masculine lot in those days, They had been not yet successfully brainwashed by “educators” and the MSM into being, in to many cases, emasculated wimps ashamed of their Whiteness with a guilt over having had an Empire , and thus an apologetic knee -jerk defence to every whim of the multi-kultists.
    The Left and their corporate allies had wisely never floated their multi-kulti concept publically until the late 80s, as Britons WOULD have rioted (as White working-class dock workers and others did in the 50s when London was the hub for a flood of West Indian immigrants.

    In those and we had a hugely reduced crime rate compared to our post-enrichment.

    Both crony capitalists and The Left connived to infest us with what we now have, the former for cheap and docile labour, the latter to deconstruct White British culture.

    I’ve lived through many General Elections. Funny thing though, it’s probably incipient Altzheimer’s, but I can’t recall any party manifesto that asked Britons to vote for race-replacement by those, who, after having been given a huge amount by the nation they or their parents came to, are so easily spurred to robbery, riot and rapine.

    The irony is, of course, that if you have been watching BBC TV news bulletins regularly over the past few weeks ago, you would have been treated to the sight of some rather hysterical, over-emotional and quite frankly unprofessional, in the strictest sense of the term, BBC reporters – I won’t grace them with the term of ‘journalist’ going into quite blatantly political rants about ‘how beastly American cops are to those poor, innocent lamb-like blacks, whom those nasty big bullies of cops just love to persecute and kill for fun’.
    And a general smug lecture about the horror of American society usually follows.

    BBC London local news has distinguished itself lately by blaming just about everything on ‘brexit’. Apparently the Hyde Park riot was relegated to second item after a piece blaming the brexit vote on an increase in attacks on non white ethnic minorities.

    "and they deploy small white females in comical riot gear, with no guns."...... the greatest sin in a brainwashed society is to publicly acknowledge reality, even when it is glaringly self-evident.
    Apart from the physicality being self evident, so is the fact, deeply rooted in our social biology, is that women are much more fearful of risk-taking than the male, as many more males can die and the "tribe" survives, but far lesser females.

    During the London riots, I despaired watching fat little lady-bobbies safely and judicously waddling behind the male officers who were (eventually) allowed to charge the rioters. The highly politicised Chief Constables betray their oath to preserve Her Majesty's peace, as it used to be quaintly put, and continue to lower physical standards in order to meet illegal but de facto diversity targets, (positive discrimination is illegal in Britain, but it is widely ignored by institutions as it would take an expensive civil suit to challenge it positive ACTION is legal, ie to discriminate in education or training where there is a perceived lack of a demographic under-represented in a particular field.This gives institutional apparatchiks a lot of wriggle room that they can use to employ a woman of an ethic in preference to an often abler candidate who is guilty of being White,. male and heterosexual.
    People die of this idiocy, which extends into the fire service. Even 9/11, where in the greatest mass act of selfless courage I or anyone else has seen, the casualties were ALL male in an FD that has 50% female employees, and despite the post of firefighter being open to women since 1982, NONE of those who gave their lives on 9/11 were women.
    Like I said, this kills people, men, women and children. Fires don't discriminate.

  34. I don’t understand why British police let “protesters” push them around like that. The British police seem to be the most manhandled police force in the developed world. They are faced with these big black guys to tackle and they put small white female police officers in riot gear, with no guns. American cops would have whacked their way through this crowd, but OTOH they might have been shot, so there’s that.

    "There will always be an England.

    I certainly hope so, but the long-term prospects look rather bleak…."

    I'm afraid it will be an England mutilated beyond all recognition, like the survivor of some horrific calamity.

  36. Of course, this kind of thing has happened before, only on a vastly larger scale:

    Mark Duggan, a 29-year-old Tottenham resident, was shot and killed by police in Tottenham, North London, England, on 4 August 2011. The Metropolitan Police stated that officers were attempting to arrest Duggan on suspicion of planning an attack, and that he was in possession of a handgun. Duggan died from a gunshot wound to the chest. The circumstances of Duggan’s killing resulted in public protests in Tottenham,[1] which led to conflict with police and escalated into riots across London and other English cities.[2] This in turn is widely seen as the proximate cause of the 2011 England riots.

    Duggan, needless to say, was Black

    Between 6 and 11 August 2011, thousands of people rioted in several London boroughs and in cities and towns across England. The resulting chaos generated looting, arson, and mass deployment of police and resulted in the death of five people. Disturbances began on 6 August after a protest in Tottenham, London, following the death of Mark Duggan, a local man who was shot dead by police on 4 August.[12] Several violent clashes with police ensued, along with the destruction of police vehicles, a double-decker bus, and many homes and businesses, thus rapidly gaining attention from the media. Overnight, looting took place in Tottenham Hale retail park and nearby Wood Green. The following days saw similar scenes in other parts of London, with the most rioting taking place in Hackney, Brixton, Walthamstow, Peckham, Enfield, Battersea, Croydon, Ealing, Barking, Woolwich, Lewisham and East Ham.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_England_riots

  37. And, back in 1985, there was this:

    The Broadwater Farm riot occurred around the Broadwater Farm estates area of Tottenham, North London, on 6 October 1985.
    The events of the day were dominated by two deaths. The first was that of Cynthia Jarrett, an African-Caribbean woman who died the previous day due to heart failure during a police search at her home. It was one of the main triggers of the riot in a context where tension between local black youth and the largely white Metropolitan Police was already high due to a combination of local issues and the aftermath of another riot which had occurred in the Brixton area of London the previous week following the shooting of a black woman (Dorothy ‘Cherry’ Groce) during another police search.[1][2][3][3][4] In July 2014 the Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, apologised “unreservedly” for the shooting and the time it had taken to say sorry” following an inquest into the death of Dorothy “Cherry” Groce, whose shooting by the Metropolitan Police triggered the riots. The jury inquest blamed the Metropolitan Police for failures that contributed to Groce’s death.[3][3][4] The second death was that of PC Keith Blakelock, the first police officer since 1833 to be killed in a riot in Britain.

    The brutal murder of PC Blakelock:

    Keith Henry Blakelock, a London Metropolitan Police constable, was killed on 6 October 1985 during rioting on the Broadwater Farm housing estate in Tottenham, north London. The trouble broke out after a local black woman died of heart failure during a police search of her home. It took place against a backdrop of unrest in several English cities and a breakdown of relations between the police and black communities.[1]

    PC Blakelock had been assigned on the night of his death to Serial 502, a unit of 10 constables and one sergeant dispatched to protect firefighters. When the rioters forced the officers back, Blakelock stumbled and fell. Surrounded by a mob of 30 to 50 people, he received more than 40 injuries inflicted by machetes or similar, and was found with a six-inch-long knife in his neck, buried up to the hilt.[1] He was the first constable to be killed in a riot in Britain since 1833, when PC Robert Culley was stabbed to death in Clerkenwell, London.[2]

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Keith_Blakelock

  38. More details on the murder of PC Blakelock:

    There were rioters at the bottom of the stairs too, wearing masks or crash helmets, and carrying knives, baseball bats, bricks and petrol bombs. As the firefighters and police ran out of the stairwell toward a car park and a patch of grass, one of the firemen, Trevor Stratford, saw that Blakelock had tripped: “He just stumbled and went down and they were upon him. It was just mob hysteria. … There were about 50 people on him.”

    The rioters removed Blakelock’s protective helmet, which was never found. Rose writes that the pathologist, David Bowen, found 54 holes in Blakelock’s overalls, and 40 cutting or stabbing injuries, eight of them to his head, caused by a machete, sword or axe-type instrument. A six-inch-long knife was buried in his neck up to the hilt. His body was covered in marks from having been kicked or stamped on. His hands and arms were badly cut, and he had lost several fingers trying to defend himself. There were 14 stab wounds on his back, one on the back of his right thigh, six on his face, and his jawbone had been smashed by a blow that left a six-inch gash across the right side of his head. Bowen said the force of this blow had been “almost as if to sever his head,” which gave rise to a rumour that an attempt had been made to decapitate him (according to Rose, the autopsy photographs did not support this).

    A second group surrounded PC Coombes, who sustained a five-inch-long cut to his face, and broken upper and lower jaws. In 2004 he said he was still suffering the effects of the attack, which the police regard as attempted murder, including poor hearing and eyesight, epileptic fits, and a memory so poor that he was left unable to read a book or drive.[37] A third constable, Michael Shepherd, had his protective helmet pierced by an iron spike.

    I've spent plenty of time in London (am actually in London at the moment), so allow me to comment on the "poshest part of London" characterization. To lead with my conclusion: it isn't quite.

    London's Hyde Park is a bit like New York's Central Park. It's vast, and all sorts of neighborhoods surround it. The short east flank of Hyde Park is a bit like Central Park South -- flagship shopping (Oxford Street / Fifth Avenue), nice offices and not too avant-gard art galleries radiate away from that part. The long south and short west flanks are a bit like the Upper East and Upper West Sides through about the mid-80s. Very high end residential (Kensington Palace / The Dakota), the occasional world-famous concert venue (Royal Albert Hall / Lincoln Center) and major museums (the Natural History Museum / the American Museum of Natural History).

    You see where I am going with this: The long north flank of Hyde Park is a bit like the UES/UWS past the 90s as you reach Cathedral Parkway, Morningside Heights and Harlem. That's a bit reductionist, but the cheapest and most "colorful" park-side neighborhoods are there: Paddington, Bayswater. The corner of the park where the police had to deploy in force was Marble Arch -- the very northeast corner of the park. It's rather close to Oxford Street (the extreme proximity between "colorful" and posh shopping is very London), but it's also the anchor of a major corridor of Muslim neighborhoods that run Northwest out of central London along the A5 road. The analogy breaks down somewhat: Muslims are not African Americans -- plenty of rich oil sheiks like to spend spend spend on Oxford Street, and the A5 corridor itself is nice enough on an average day if you like "color." Ask yourself: why is Morocco a popular enough tourist destination, when Liberia is not? But also ask yourself if you'd really want to live in Morocco, even if you're happy to visit there.

    Had the cops deployed to Hyde Park Corner / Wellington Arch (at the southwest corner of the park) I would grant you that the mini riot took place at the height of poshness -- Buckingham Palace is but a stone's throw from there. But Marble Arch is on the "diverse" side of the park so these events are not entirely surprising to me.

    I think you might find there’s actually less Arabic signage now. Bayswater is gradually turning into its neighbour to the west, Notting Hill. The fancy shops along Westbourne Grove are slowly spreading east and displacing cheaper stuff like Islamic bookstores.

    There is still the heavily Arabified strip of Edgware Road between Marble Arch and the A40 where ISIS street recruiters were filmed in a recent Channel 4 documentary. I don’t see that area changing any time soon. That said, the rioters don’t look like Arabs, so this is just an aside I guess.

  43. The whole area around the park has been very expensive for some years now, though the north-south divide does exist, with the neighborhoods to the south and west of the park dominated by the global uberrich. The south end of the park turns into a lounge for vacationing Arabs in the summer.

    The people in the video fighting the police are types I’d expect to see locally around some of the big council estates north of Bayswater and Notting Hill, and also around White City (to the park’s northwest). There are often some number of people like this in the park, but generally in small groups and not causing any trouble.

    However, some of the videos I saw on Twitter were posted by people in Croydon, so I’d guess this was some organised event that people traveled to attend.

    The good news is that the trouble didn’t last long. The park was quiet and clean again last night, despite no visible police presence.

    And a general smug lecture about the horror of American society usually follows.

    BBC London local news has distinguished itself lately by blaming just about everything on 'brexit'.

  47. So, essentially all over the West, a race conflict if not war is breaking out over racial and ethnic lines, with non-Whites and specifically Blacks/Africans feeling that it is both wise and consequence free to abuse and fight with White (mostly) police forces and that Whites and specifically White men must grovel and abase themselves in front of them.

    This seems like the stupidity of Bismarck and the Kaiser all over again. The Iron Chancellor remarked that the Balkans were not worth “the bones of a single Prussian Grenadier” yet he entrenched the Kaiser and the Juncker class over every other group in Germany, destroying the Catholic Church’s influence in the KulturKampf to eliminate any Hapsburg remaining power in Southern Germany. Leaving no recourse when the new Kaiser tossed him out and the Kaiser and Juncker class prepared for war on behalf of … the Hapsburgs … against traditional ally Russia, while picking a fight with Britain over a useless navy. All for … Hapsburg conquest of Serbia.

    The Kaiser sensed division among the British and French (who nearly came to war over Fashoda) and Russian weakness. But had an over-inflated sense of abilities and neglected German weakness (logistics and dependency on imports). Black people globally sense the Civil War Among Whites, over virtue signaling and hatred of class rivals by the White Upper Class. But don’t understand that fighting is more than just who is the best street warrior and that cities have historically been very, VERY bad places to be in civil strife.

    TL:DR, just like the Kaiser’s dreams of a quick victory turned into a Western Front charnel house and eventually, total collapse in the Balkans, so too are Africans/Blacks deluding themselves that some Whites won’t fight and that Fourth or Fifth Generation Warfare won’t apply to them too. Think home-brew drones pursuing vibrants for unpunished rape/murder given that a police force half female is not good at the clampdown on Whites as well as Blacks.

    A smalll number of female cops are a necessary and often vital addition to a police force, but when a little muscle and raw courage is required, they are, literally worse than useless, as an able male cop is taken out of the equation, and he often has to protect HER instead of the public.. ( I'm not saying that all women lack courage, just most of them, and unlike men, those that do lack cannot be shamed into take action.)

    I complained to Strathclyde Police about an incident following an act of vandalism when two female officers displayed rank cowardice,
    I had been in a public building when I saw two drunks smash the windscreen of my car, By the time I got out they had gone,, I called the cops and went looking for them but I saw them in a near deserted shopping area ( this was after all the shops were closed. )
    Knowing the way the law "works" and how a citizen making an arrest is liable to end up in court on assault charges I drove around until I saw two female cops. They claimed not to have been notified by despatch, and then feigned not to understand, after I'd explained ,declined my offer to assist them in making an arrest , and when I became more insistent( politely) they came out with "Is this your car " and seeing where they wwere wanting to do, I backed off and left.

    The minute I got home I typed out a letter of complaint to the Chief Constable and I did not pussy-foot around and accused them of rank cowardice, and questioned the wisdom of putting two female PCs (unarmed except for a 12" truncheon"
    The local Inspector visited me a few days later, and tried assorted BS to get me to withdraw my compliant. Thinking it would mollify me, he told me that he had worked with one and she was no coward. I told him that she certainly was on the evidence I had seen, and that although he may be telling me the truth, it was exactly the kind of uncheckable BS used by management the world over to justify policy, He then told me "I never put two lassies out together on a Friday night when I'm in charge, I always put them out with a man."
    I told him that the Chief Constable had publicly stated that WPCs were as capable as their male colleagues, part of my complaint covered this woefully unsafe policy, that HE knew to be deleterious to public and officer safety, a policy he manoevered around BECAUSE he knew it was founded on myth and wishful thinking (and in doing so endangered a male officer to bodyguard his "equal" female partner, but he wanted ME to be the same sort of hypocrite to defend a lie?
    H eretired the field very unhappy, and HQ send down cop another three steps higher up the promotion ladder, a talking head of a Chief Superintendent.
    Different day, different cop, same sh/t.

Give them a hard-earned but reasonably prosperous and comfortable life, some amusements, some distractions, a firm footing for the future, a place for themselves and their grandchildren to recognise from more than nostalgia, and the average white westerner will turn soft with slumbering ease; unthreatened, unbelieving, unfearing. But take enough of these things away for long enough and set his back to the wall, and the forces that have placed him there will learn more than they wish to about the capacities of the people they have worked so hard to see cornered. The same people who built it all up, through unity, toughness, thrift, self-belief and coldblooded resolve, and who have chosen to let it run to seed in their own splendid and spectacular decadence and neglect, would make a terrifying enemy once revivified and redirected. Time will tell.

    It’s becoming increasingly difficult to do as you suggest ” Talk to people of colour” because even the ones born here can’t speak English, and I don’t speak ghetto jive-ass.
    Funny thing though, many “people of colour” not born anglophones ( like orientals) are very easy to talk to.
    This is because they made the effort to learn English and don’t carry an enormous chip on their shoulders, or have the same sense racist sense of entitlement that clowns like you have .
    Why the f*ck should Whites pay for the actions of other Whites born generations ago?
    Much of what happened in Colonial times was beneficial, a lot more beneficial than many native African leaders, who, then as now, sh/t all over their own people and sold them into slavery.
    ( Just like Boko Haram did to their Nigerian “sisters” two years ago)

    BTW, can I have reparations for the Barbary slavers who took more than a million whites into slavery from isolated European villages?

    People die of this idiocy, which extends into the fire service. Even 9/11, where in the greatest mass act of selfless courage I or anyone else has seen, the casualties were ALL male in an FD that has 50% female employees, and despite the post of firefighter being open to women since 1982, NONE of those who gave their lives on 9/11 were women.
    Like I said, this kills people, men, women and children. Fires don’t discriminate.
     
    In other words, Diversity means paying for a fire department, getting 1/2 of a fire department, and then pretending whether or not that got a lot of people killed on 9/11 isn't a valid question.

    * from my own military experiences, and my ongoing contact with those stills erving, I’m well aware of how career conscious officers and NCOs will try to glissade female candidates through selection processes.
    If you get 1/2 of a fire department or 1/2 of a rifle company instead of the full complement the taxpayer shelled out for, people will die. In the military, it’s much worse, Women get worn down much quicker and become more of a burden than if they weren’t there at all.

    I had hoped that Norman Schwartzkopf who was himself quite seriously wounded in combat in Vietnam, had succeeded in stamping out much of the ticket- punching that he clearly understood was having such an adverse affect on the US Army. Schwartzkopf was in my opinion, which may be wrong, seems to have been a much better military commander than Powell, who seems to been, from early days, more of a politician than a soldier.
    The ticket-punchers of Schwartzkopfs stayed " in the rear with the gear" with very little time exposed to hard fighting. Apologies in advance to any present-day servicewomen who do not fit this profile, but I imagine once all the BS has been filtered out, their will be damn few who expose themselves to anything like as much danger as their male comrades.
    I remember the rash of deployment-stopping pregnancies in the US forces in Gulf One, and the utter crap that the Pentagon put out and the press colluded with.
    Gulf Two was the trigger for yet more outrageous lies bigging up women in combat, eg. the making of supply clerk PFC Jessica Lynch, who was ambushed whilst in convoy into the Audie Murphy MK2 (female.) PFC Lynch certainly did nor lack moral courage because after her rescue by Navy Seals she deliberately and with commendable modest, honesty and courage,especially for a 20-year old PFC, blew apart the Pentagon general's and the MSM's lies.

    A smalll number of female cops are a necessary and often vital addition to a police force, but when a little muscle and raw courage is required, they are, literally worse than useless, as an able male cop is taken out of the equation, and he often has to protect HER instead of the public.. ( I’m not saying that all women lack courage, just most of them, and unlike men, those that do lack cannot be shamed into take action.)

    I complained to Strathclyde Police about an incident following an act of vandalism when two female officers displayed rank cowardice,
    I had been in a public building when I saw two drunks smash the windscreen of my car, By the time I got out they had gone,, I called the cops and went looking for them but I saw them in a near deserted shopping area ( this was after all the shops were closed. )
    Knowing the way the law “works” and how a citizen making an arrest is liable to end up in court on assault charges I drove around until I saw two female cops. They claimed not to have been notified by despatch, and then feigned not to understand, after I’d explained ,declined my offer to assist them in making an arrest , and when I became more insistent( politely) they came out with “Is this your car ” and seeing where they wwere wanting to do, I backed off and left.

    The minute I got home I typed out a letter of complaint to the Chief Constable and I did not pussy-foot around and accused them of rank cowardice, and questioned the wisdom of putting two female PCs (unarmed except for a 12″ truncheon”
    The local Inspector visited me a few days later, and tried assorted BS to get me to withdraw my compliant. Thinking it would mollify me, he told me that he had worked with one and she was no coward. I told him that she certainly was on the evidence I had seen, and that although he may be telling me the truth, it was exactly the kind of uncheckable BS used by management the world over to justify policy, He then told me “I never put two lassies out together on a Friday night when I’m in charge, I always put them out with a man.”
    I told him that the Chief Constable had publicly stated that WPCs were as capable as their male colleagues, part of my complaint covered this woefully unsafe policy, that HE knew to be deleterious to public and officer safety, a policy he manoevered around BECAUSE he knew it was founded on myth and wishful thinking (and in doing so endangered a male officer to bodyguard his “equal” female partner, but he wanted ME to be the same sort of hypocrite to defend a lie?

    Up until we became diversity enriched I had never seen a gun- armed cop in public.
    Guns were only issued in very rare circumstances: In Glasgow, then a city of a million souls, once about every five tears or so, to a very small handful of selected officers.
    There were a very few, but necessary, female officers in police forces throughout Britain. There were height limits in force, at the least candidates had to be above the average for their sex by at least three inches, many of the men were MUCH bigger.
    No body armour was worn, or paramilitary accoutrements.
    For that matter. even their batons were not displayed in public, they were concealed in a specially-deep trouser pocket, and only drawn when needed.
    Policing was by consent in those days, and despite gun ownership being much easier in those days, very little gun crime.
    Then the political elite, corporate interests, Cultural Marxists and the MSM stabbed Britons in the back and waited for the corpse to moulder.

    “‘Two female PCs unarmed (except for 12″ inch truncheons).

    That, just about says it all : ) …………….Not quite.
    Up until we became diversity enriched I had never seen a gun- armed cop in public.
    Guns were only issued in very rare circumstances: In Glasgow, then a city of a million souls, once about every five tears or so, to a very small handful of selected officers.
    There were a very few, but necessary, female officers in police forces throughout Britain. There were height limits in force, at the least candidates had to be above the average for their sex by at least three inches, many of the men were MUCH bigger.
    No body armour was worn, or paramilitary accoutrements.
    For that matter. even their batons were not displayed in public, they were concealed in a specially-deep trouser pocket, and only drawn when needed.
    Policing was by consent in those days, and despite gun ownership being much easier in those days, very little gun crime.
    Then the political elite, corporate interests, Cultural Marxists and the MSM stabbed Britons in the back and waited for the corpse to moulder.

    Indeed, the Bobbies of old were possibly the best police force in the world. What a loss!
