It seems that her recording has been heavily edited and she refuses to show the whole recording. So are the police institutionalised racists or not?
Routine to stop an expensive car driven by Black people..
BFYPExactly.It CAN happen to anyone.It DOES happen disproportionately to black people. Just like police brutality CAN and DOES happen to people of all creeds, colours, sexes and ages. But it just happens to occur disproportionately if you are young, male and black.Back in June, around the time there was that video if the woman calling the police to report that she was being attacked by a black man in Central Park, New York, I read an interview.It was a young, professional black man who lived in an affluent suburb. He said he goes out jogging regularly and sees white people crossing the street (and that comes from pre-COVID) to avoid him. Then one of his (black) friends who was out was jumped by the police who tasered him, handcuffed him and arrested him. Turned out someone had seen a black guy running on the street and phoned the police, assuming he was a criminal. The man being interviewed said that ever since then, he takes his 8 year old daughter out with him when he jogs as a "I am a normal person, not a danger to you" sign. THAT is what the whole BLM issue means. It's about asking for blacks to be treated by the same standards as whites. That THAT is why people who aggressively pushback with the All Lives Matter line are part of the problem. Because few of us white people ever have to live our lives like that.
The police federation are asking for the whole body cam footage to be released so the public can view itThis was just a routine vehicle stop check under the road traffic actA routine duty carried out by the police on numerous cars on a daily basisHelton how do you know her footage has been edited
According to Talk Radio report she has refused to release the full footage of the recordings and what was released were heavily edited, since then the officers body cam footage has been viewed by the police authorities and has been deemed to have not in any way convened normal police procedure to protect the public. It is a fact that a disproportionate number of crimes in the London area are committed by a coloured minority of the local population, and when stop and search was stopped the crime figures increased it was then reintroduced with the backing of most of the public. Corbyns nodding donkey has been found out using the media as a political tool, perhaps she should buy an old banger.

Quote from: IDM on August 12, 2020, 08:56:07 amRoutine to stop an expensive car driven by Black people..If I saw a car come up with a North Yorkshire plate driven in London by two black people in that part of London I'd probably ask a question. Had they not have checked the reg wrongly they may not have asked the question.I got stopped once because I didn't look like someone who should have the car I had (a 6 month old Audi registered nowhere near where I was). I understood that bit if not the lies and attitude by said police officer but that's a different matter. But it can happen to anyone. Having said that the stats don't lie particularly in London. Id like to see that compared to the crimes committed by black people in London, is it proportionate and actually is skin colour the wrong way of identifying potential criminals? Is that any worse than age, appearance etc? That's a very difficult question to answer.
State of this thread, f**king hell. No sources, no evidence, just people DESPERATE to prove a black woman is lying. Really makes you think.
It makes me think this thread is exactly why Black Lives Matter is so important.The Met police have admitted they made a mistake. They haven't disputed her account of events and have apologised publicly to her. And yet we STILL have people on here spreading conspiracy theories that she edited the video (she didn't, apart from maybe blurring her friends face out which is understandable) and is refusing to share it. There is no source or evidence for any of this offered anywhere. But of course, it's a prominent black woman, so she must just be race baiting or at fault somehow.
She is an Mp don't they all lie? or just the PM?
My point exactly selbyWhy is she more credible than a police officerMPs never lie they never exaggerate the truth. Never twist things never fiddle their expensesI’ve not read anything on here from anyone calling her a liarMy point was around her credibility as an MP not about her being a woman of colourWhat I would say to macho is if the first thing that entered your mind was her colour maybe you should examine your unconscious bias
