When he is acquitted do we think that the promising young footballers will riot?

The election will be behind us by then so London riots shouldn't be too much of a problem.

When he is acquitted do we think that the promising young footballers will riot? It will certainly be an interesting Trial

It was not his SUV , we will have to wait for the trial to begin and see what did happen and why I see the story has changed now so the latest is it was not his car, so does that mean he stole it or borrowed it?

No the story has not changed the vehicle had been flagged up in the Police ANPR system as being involved in a serious incident a day or two before , that is why the Police were following the car that day their intention was to stop it which they did, because of the information on the ANPR an unmarked Police car with armed officers on board was used to stop it. The car was not stolen but did not belong to him, it is well known that Criminals will use what are called pool cars they share between them

Not saying there is anything dodgy here might have been lazy reporting or just old Chinese whispers to get the story out first.

Of course we do not know what the Police said over the radio at this point in time it is highly likely to be a commentary by the Police Officers following him giving directions to other Police Vehicles getting in place to stop him, the decision to open fire is made by the Firearms Officer and any Officer that does open fire has to justify it in full. In normal circumstances no Armed Officer can be ordered by a Senior Officer to open fire, in recent times a Senior Officer Cressida Dick did give the order to open fire in the Menendez case and a totally innocent man was shot dead

At least it will prevent more shootings by those "Dirty Harry" and "gung-ho cops" that some posters on here imagine exist in the Met.

Guess we will never know, a mate had a friend at CW and said two body bags were removed there though later Reuters changed their story. I was travelling to CW by cab at times and it was strange when they had the guards out with assault rifles and when they did not.

What a thankless task they have.
