Crowd of Londoners chanting 'let him go!' tussle with police in attempt to stop man being detained

Somebody hasn’t read the Magna Carta…

Nah for real, I understand there’s no written contract and I’m aware that they exist as an arm of the state, but we have people in our communities that only act in their own interests and are actively making things a worse. People have had enough.

If you get mugged or burgled they won’t help you in any meaningful way. The value proposition is broken and in many neighbourhoods people don’t want them there. This hostility and rejection of the role of the met isn’t going to get better any time soon. What was the outcome of todays raid? Arrested and released.

I grew up in north London. I know how they operate. They’re not on our side and I fully support people rejecting their authority.
