Excellent news. I think that all armed officers should hand in their tickets.
It's about time that the police stopped being used as a political football.
This is long overdue.

knee jerk reaction from the Woke, if the person in question was White it would be in the line of duty, we have to do the virtue signalling crap by charging the officer with murder, I mean murder not even manslaughter, murder suggests this police officer got up that morning with the intention of murdering someone that day, it's totally ridiculous.

That is a very good point. Murder suggests "malice aforethought" which would have been impossible. Did the attorney general have to authorise this charge, or was it down to the head of the CPS?

Last week Mark Rowley was openly criticising the CPS for breaching their own guidelines. In a nutshell, police officers are multiple times more likely to be charged following an allegation than a member of the public in the same circumstances.
Unsurprisingly, police officers are subsequently much less likely to be convicted at court - which, suggested Mr Rowley, indicates that the CPS are clearly charging on the basis of insufficient or non-existent evidence.
