US Politics

The US is not a democracy.

It is an oligarchy codisplaying as a democracy.

Elections are just a ritual confirming oiligarchal rule.

Really Americans are just firewood to keep the rich warm.

And there, I am afraid, go most of us.

They haven’t but only because it wasn’t the subject.

If true then it’s unacceptable but I cannot believe the police would arrest anyone unless they had first decided there was a prima facie case to answer and to do that they must have reviewed the evidence. If they later decided there wasn’t sufficient to prosecute wouldn’t mean the claims were baseless though. Only not enough to justify prosecution.

Police review Borehamwood couple's arrest in school WhatsApp row - BBC News

A county's Police and Crime Commissioner says the case "shouldn’t have become a police matter".
www.bbc.co.uk www.bbc.co.uk

3 police cars, 6 Officers. They had to call an elderly mother to look after their young child. At best heavy handed. What’s wrong with speaking to them in the house? An absolute disgraceful piece of police work

I knew you would refute what was written. What carries more weight? The CPS or report.org? Will I post what the Daily Mail says? Others can judge from what's been put here. I won't get into anymore correct or incorrect with you. Oh no he didn't/ oh yes he did. You're clouding what is very clearly written here.

It’s being investigated so until that’s complete and the police have either justified their actions or apologised for them it’s impossible to make an informed assessment.

In any case this doesn’t appear to involve any element of a hate crime but rather just alleged harassment. Which is still concerning of course but the discussion was about the enhanced response that hate crime generates.

Isn't deadnaming a crime?

Having never heard the term I needed to inform myself.

The answer seems to be no. Not on its own. If done with the intention to harass or abuse then it could be.

If it was on its own then I would have committed an offence many times. Having transitioned grandchildren who have adopted new names can be challenging to their grandad.

Welcome to the party pal.

It's oligarchs all the way down and probably always was.....since the Magna Carta.

Elite theory....Leaders do get a say....but ultimately the money/power rules.

Really!! I think you need to seek out the full story and then try to defend the police action

But my government's got my back. They care about me. They make me feel warm - even when I can't afford to turn the heating on.

Nope they don’t. They question the amount that man is contributing. Totally different and from you who know everything I’m surprised you stated that !

The subject was those who deny science! Science knows what man is contributing. There is a consensus.. Some here, not themselves experts in the field, question that science for no discernible reason other than it doesn't suit them.

As that is surely what the investigation will do and not any report by a journalist, even from the BBC, that's precisely what I am suggesting.

It has already been established that no crime was committed the review is to look into why an over the top heavy handed approach was taken. The fact this couple were arrested proves the original point.
And it’s not just one journalist
