In a nutshell. Plod pull over a driver; appears to be more than 'routine'. Driver refusing to get out of the car. Copper smashes windscreen to immobilise him (plod is heard to be saying something about the driver being disqualified). Driver reports cop to DPS; copper(s) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-37401527.

As with a lot of these videos, we don't see the 'before', only the during.

Some videos (as the first on in the link shows) only show the meaty bits but as the second clip shows, there was a bit more to it. Perhaps it was mistaken identity, or perhaps he really was a toerag who uses aliases to get away with driving whilst disqualified. Why doesn't he just get out and assist the police officer with his enquiry?

FB is awash with coppers v ethnics claims. Makes me sick.

Had that driver been surrounded by a gang of 'man dem' he wouldn't have been using his phone to record the event, he'd have been using it to phone the same police he's now trying to get reprimanded.

IMO, of course.

Police involved now on 'restricted duties', whatever that means. From the video I saw this morning, I doubt I'd get out of my car when there's a fired up plod yelling at me and trying to smash my car's windows.
There was a lot of dialogue before the plod started the smashing. There were numerous requests to get out of the car. Driver simply refused. It got heated afterwards. We don't see what happened - or what was said - before the clip started.

Did you choose to ignore the part in all of the reporting that then goes on to say

'Released without charge?'

Or would that be an uncomfortable truth, that the chap involved had done nothing wrong, other than 'being in the possession of curly black hair and thick lips'.
I think the car might have been registered to the (alleged/suspected) banned driver. My point is, if it was a case of mistaken identity, why being so difficult about it?

Damn these "ethnics" (whatever the f@£k that's meant to mean), eh? With their equal rights legislation and often legitimate complaints of unfair treatment by the authorities.

I'm assuming that as a white person, you are above ethnicity, having attained a higher standard of skin colour and genetics that us mere "ethnics" can only gaze upon in awe and wonder whilst walking 10 paces behind, eyes firmly down, as we dream of the day you will permit us a shred of dignity.

I can't believe no-one on here has picked you up on that phrase in almost 10 pages. Pathetic.
I am mixed race. Whatever that means.

White mother and a 'coloured' father.

HTH.

Smiley Culture 'stabbed' himself to death after being arrested because the police didn't put cuffs on him.
I'm not sure what I make of this statement. Was he in a state of panic? Was he worried about what the rozzers would find during the raid? Was he of sound mind?

It's just not heard of, especially in this country. I don't know the facts so I'm looking at this with an open mind but it does seem a bit harsh to blame the police for him killing himself, no?
