Police vandalise house
Discussion
I've never heard of him.
Strikes me though ,if you wanted some very cheap publicity all you'd have to do is get a mate to call the police and claim burglary so that:
The lefties start a "all the neighbours are racist because they can't let a black man do well" tirade.
The plebs (main target market for grime) can go mad on the "all coppers are bds" free for all.
It gives him an air of "bad boy" so aligned with the scene since the NWA days that his previous careeer in quality assurance doesn't.
Normally wouldn't be so cynical, but his album is released in what, 3 days?

as much as i think the indy is usually a bastion of sanctimonious drivel, that headline is the first thing that came to mind. some snooty curtain twitcher neighbour phoned the police because a black person couldn't possibly afford to live there. i may be wrong , i doubt it though.You're assuming two things.
The neighbours saw him, didn't just hear some commotion and thought that's not right I hope that nice man down stairs is ok.
He didn't do it himself for publicity
Ps for some reason while drunk I decided to go to my Garage one night when I lived in Telford looking for something
Those racist bds across the way called the police in me. Where is my compo? Is it cos I is white.
But the racists here will automatically assume race is in play because the media keep telling us we are racists while the rest of us just get along.
Is kicking a door in for a phone call standard procedure? " of course his neighbours thought he wa a burgler" of course fking of course. Did he move in that day, they'd never seen him before? Even he hasn't brought race into it but the commies at the independent are determined to decivde.

Yes, the police know the occupant / resident of every London address
It's a pretty good summary of the standard of intelligence of people who can't resist to give an opinion about things they know little to nothing about. A bit like the OP given his posting history and mention of Smiley Culture (an accused drug dealer who killed himself shortly before his trial). Yes, the police know the occupant / resident of every London address
Although given that comedy article by the Independent (I actually thought better of them), maybe we shouldn't set our standards too high.
There's so little information about the matter and so many unknown variables there's not really anything to discuss.

Apparently it's the other way around given the above. I'll ask again- is it standard procedure to smash a door in to ascertain whether a place is being burgled?
It's standard procedure to apply to law according to the circumstances faced. The known circumstances which are wholly incomplete. Whether you accept that or not doesn't change it.
I didn't say there's nothing to discuss, I said there's not really anything (which still provides limited scope) to discuss given the lack of information.
In your desperation to include your first-page quote and post you failed to read what I actually wrote.

Known facts:No burglar
Door smashed in by the police

Knock the door, wait for occupant to open. If you can see someone in there, they are ignoring you and a neighbour suspects a burglary is taking place then in that situation the police can lawfully enter the premises.
We dont know if that happened or not. I dont know any officers that woukd just break a door open on the say so of a neighbour.
