Well maybe the government should stop being so objectionable, and instead represent the people. You know, the thing they’re employed to do.
Alternative headline: Police force known to be full of racists and rapists struggle to recruit people who aren’t, leading to an inability to do their job. Politicians who ignored these things for years blame public.
Alternative alternative headline: Politicians try to discourage protesting under veiled threat of not providing aid to the rest of the population.
Obey, citizen.
Without reading the article, is it… Let me guess… Is it conservative MPs?
Tory cunts
Straight to the point.
At this stage why not just formally cede control of our foreign policy to Netanyahu rather than come up with endless hand wringing, pearl clutching authoritarian bullshit to justify ignoring what people are demanding over Gaza.
The pretence is so tedious.
Good. The weaker the police, the more power the people have. Keep pushing, and never forget - they don’t work for, and aren’t there to protect you, but those in power and their capital.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The suggestion, which comes after a new law was introduced making it easier for the police to put conditions on peaceful protests, has drawn staunch defences of the right to demonstrate.
Ruth Ehrlich, head of policy and campaigns at Liberty, said: “Protest is not a burden on society or public bodies – it is one of the most fundamental parts of our democracy and one we must proudly protect.”
In a report released on Tuesday, the committee noted that the successive and large-scale nature of the Israel-Gaza protests, as well as organisations such as Just Stop Oil using disruptive tactics, had presented new challenges for the police.
The extra demands come as the Met is “attempting to carry out a massive and necessary culture change exercise, at the same time as it is failing to recruit its full allocation of new officers as part of the police uplift programme”, the report said.
MPs called for police forces to be given greater support, with a comprehensive workforce plan put in place to identify and respond to demand on resources nationwide.
It is vital that the right framework is in place to ensure that protests can continue without the burden on policing becoming intolerable and without regularly taking resources away from communities that have their own local crime-fighting challenges.”

Putin’s psyops crew is working both sides of the isle folks - discontent is the goal. Yes there is legitimate outrage however Putin is masterfully directing the violence for his own gain. The world is just too slow to react but a cease fire and real, meaningful resolutions are now emerging and there is a strong proposal for a Palestine state.
What kinda drugs are you on mate? This is about the UK and our right to protest, not Putin or Palestine.
Touch grass.
Didn’t realise the blueanon conspiracy theories had reached this side of the pond.
