Piggy parade

Or: whose police? Murdoch's police! The Police Federation marched through London to protect their members privileges, and they are privileges. The mainstream press would like to connect today's public sector strikes with the federation march. The police are not workers, they don't see themselves as workers, they are not clamouring to be part of the TUC and they did not ask for solidarity from the unions, let alone the left. Nor should we have offered it. If you stand with the police you are standing against every kid being harassed on a council estate, against every student hauled before a court on a trumped up charge and against every family trying to get justice for someone killed in police custody. As far as we're concerned no cut to the police is deep enough. The entire force should be disbanded (and before anyone goes "ah-ha" there is the matter of what kind of state do we put in its place, but for now: Disband the Met).

Like bad pennies in broken jar

They just keep turning up! ‎"Make sure you do a lot with your 60 grand because you're not gonna get it no more bruv..." Well done the lad for standing up to racist bullies. He is an absolute hero! Take down PC Alex MacFarlane, racist PC Alex MacFarlane, violent racist PC Alex MacFarlane, take him down, all the way. While we're on the subject DISBAND THE MET!
