22,000 'OFF-DUTY' COPS MARCH THROUGH LONDON... WE ASK DO THEY DESERVE A PAY RISE?
"Sometimes, the bobby on the beat acts in a way that only feeds the growing belief that the police are the enemy." - Simon Heffer, Daily Telegraph
In the wake of the New Labour regime's refusal to award the police a backdated pay rise, 22,000 off-duty police officers marched through London to demand their backdated pay rise in full but so far Home Secretary Jacqui Smith has refused to back down.
In 2005, the campaign group Civitas labelled British police the "worst in the developed world" and there has been little improvement since then with the 'police' continuing to be obsessed with gay and ethnic 'rights' and attending Marxist social-engineering projects designed to destroy the very fabric of traditional British society.
And throughout the 11 years of the corrupt and incompetent New Labour regime, the police have willing carried out all of its crackpot schemes and ideas, with over 300 new 'laws', many of them useless and ineffective, laid on the statute book for the police to 'enforce'.
The police should not be judged as a mere crime fighting force alone and the broader socio-political context in which they operate also has to be taken into account. And who can forget that the Metropolitan Police firearms unit SO19 threatened to go on strike after four of its number were threatened with disciplinary action over the unlawful shooting of Harry Stanley.
Unarmed Harry Stanley gunned down by SO19
...
Indeed the de facto murder of Mr Stanley who was practically executed at point-blank range, serves as a reminder of what British police have become: A protected species who are almost never held responsible for their crimes and failings and in this they seemed to have learned a great deal from the New Labour regime they serve first and foremost....
The shooting dead of Harry Stanley was an appalling act and the officers who carried out this shooting should have been sacked and faced criminal prosecution in the courts. Remember, Mr Stanley was carrying a repaired wooden table leg in a plastic bag and was making his way home when challenged by SO19. Without making any threats to the police at all, Mr Stanley was shot in the head from five feet away (point-blank range) and shot again in the torso by an SO19 'police officer' carrying an MP5 sub-machine gun. Mr Stanley was found to be carrying a repaired table leg in a plastic bag and was making his way home from a local pub. Apparently, on account of his 'Scottish' accent, a customer mistook him for an 'Irishman' and thought he might be an IRA gunman.
The SO19 officers who executed him and it was an execution at point-blank range, faced no criminal prosecution and when these 'police officers' faced disciplinary action, the entire SO19 firearms unit threatened strike action, which would have left the whole of London unprotected during a heightened terrorism alert. The message here is clear: The police can execute an innocent man and then hold the public to ransom by threatening strike action and by so doing allow their 'colleagues' to get away with de facto murder! And it is thought these same trigger-happy 'police officers' are still serving in SO19....
And then there is the case of Jean Charles De Menezes, also executed at point-blank range in a savage frenzy which resulted in this innocent man being shot seven times in the head. The British Army surveillance team (Force Research Unit) had already reported back to the police that the man [De Menezes] was likely not the suspected terrorist they were hunting. But the Metropolitan Police ignored the warning and Commander Cressida Dick ordered him to be "stopped" and he was in a hail of dumb-dumb bullets.
But not 'content' with their appalling 'mistake', the Metropolitan Police Special Branch (MPSB) altered the incident log to suggest that they did not know Mr De Menezes was not the terrorist they were hunting. None of the MPSB officers were disciplined over this deliberate tampering of evidence and are free to do exactly the same thing again....
In fact no 'police officer' faced criminal and/or discplinary charges over the De Menezes murder. Instead the police were 'convicted' of breaching Health and Safety rules - a lamentable cop-out designed to placate an angry if confused public.
Across the whole of Britain there are similar cases of trigger-happy cops gunning down innocent civilians without facing any criminal and/or disciplinary charges. This is a police 'service' with a licence to kill and what is even more alarming is the fact that they also have an unwritten licence to get away with it and this unacceptable situation has grown significantly worse under the corrupt and incompetent New Labour regime.
And the 'reputation' of the Metropolitan Police sunk lower still after it was publicised that marked 'police cars' were seen hosting 'Vote Labour' posters in the windows during the 2005 General Election. On that occasion, the police were 'protecting' war criminal and cash for honours crook Tony Blair as he campaigned to be re-elected. This act proved beyond doubt that British police are now deeply politicised and the real question is when does a politicised police 'service' become a de facto political police in the genre of George Orwell's 1984? We contend that we now have a politcal police and the their dispute with the New Labour regime should be seen as nothing more than a family dispute.
All of the foregoing does not alter the fact that the police do face a difficult job and have to deal with some 'people' who can be extremely dangerous but these examples show that the police are a protected species, particularly where there is a political angle to a 'case'.
At News Alliance we exist to re-balance the scales and it is not our job to repeat every tale pumped out by the Establishment's tame puppet media. We exist to shine the light on the real news and the facts that the puppet media do not want people to know about.
Of course, the police have a difficult job and we do not dispute this and in fact we support the police where it comes to detecting, defeating and preventing crime. However, the purpose of this feature is to show that today we have political police bogged down with liberal procedures and red tape. The role of the police is to protect the public and by so doing prevent, detect and defeat crime.
But we do not support or tolerate a politicised or political police 'service' which carries out campaigns of harassment and intimidation against civil rights campaigners and anti-Establishment political activists who seek an end to injustice and widespread political corruption 'undetected' by the tame political police.
In closing, we ask you the public to join the debate and vote in the poll below. But before you vote, we ask you to read here the damning case of Britain's worst Chief Constable....
