Evening Standard: "Mother to sue over sons' arrest"
The bloody place has gone mad....
It's practically guaranteed that these two little scrotes murdered that kid, yet they've gotten away with it... and they're suing the police !!!!
Liberal wooliness is bringing this country to its knees.
Modern liberalism (as was born out of the 60s I suppose) has brought with it ills such as popular sociology, psychology, equalitarianism has wreaked havoc on British (and American) society. It's at the core of all the absurd schemes we hear about. Perversity of the civil courts, mollycoddling of young offenders, blindness to the ills of crime committed by ethnic minorities, failure to deal adequately with illegal immigration, lunatic schemes in the name of safety and the environment.
What those liberal showcases, psychiatry and sociology, achieved in the late 20th century is to provide the weak and foolish with excuses for everything (except motoring
)... it provides a vehicle for shifting responsibility for ones actions to others, be they parents, educators, employers, society as a whole or even the police.
FWIW, by way of illustration, I am of the opinion that the MacPherson report was the death blow for any hope of proper law enforcement in London, with knock on effects in the rest of the country.
The over-riding concern of these liberals is for the 'disadvantaged' and 'providing a level playing field', these are admirable ends, but liberals approach the problem from false (or at least unprovable) premises. Such flawed thinking has resulted in the reduction of the education system to a daycare for the terminally mediocre and the justice system is prostated at the altar of political correctness, bent over backwards to have sympathy for the devil. Oh - and let's not forget that those we call liberals, don't even endorse the primacy of individual liberty, especially as a concept coupled to individual responsibilty.
We need some big political changes in this country but I honestly don't think many people have the stomach for it.
All IMO, FWIW, AFAIK etc..

too right... the thieving rate's pretty low in those muslim countries where they cut your hand off for it...
quote:The police only charged them after they'd been given the go-ahead by the CPS after scrutiny of what case they had. Ordinarily, the police charge you first then refer it to the CPS for the prosecution. The didn't know in this instance if they had a strong enough case for the CPS to prosecute, so the police deferred to the CPS.
The police would have only arrested the boys if they believed that the weight of evidence aginst them was strong enough to warrant an arrest/trial. If these boys are subsequently found not guilty, fair enough justice has been done - but surely they shouldn't be allowed to then sue the police.
In the most technical sense, justice has ben done, but really we know damned well that it hasn't. The reasons it hasn't IMO include the relations between the police and these communities, and the strangle hold such youths have been allowed to take on the kids on their estates.
Relations between these communities and the police were, IMO, damaged immensely more by the MacPherson report - moreover by the Met's acceptance of it which I think was somewhat under political duress - than by any racism that may or may not exist in the police force. Racism, incidentally, of which black and asian people/policemen are also capable.
The way these kids have been able to control the estates is a reflection of the impunity with which the judiciary has bestowed them. They know it too!
