Charged doesn't mean guilty. No apology needed. Yet...

This is the Alfie Meadows who claimed, well actually his mother claimed, that he was brutally beaten by policemen during the student riots in London.

Alfred Meadows, 20 (dob 04/06/90), of Brixton Water Lane, London, SW2, charged with violent disorder contrary to Section 2 Public Order Act 1986.

We have always said the rumours that Meadows was actually the victim of ‘friendly fire’ (hit by a concrete block thrown at police by other students) should be properly investigated. Meadows was the only non-police casualty of any significance during those riots and has been the poster boy for police brutality in the Left media ever since.

The other option is that he was struck with a baton legitimately, and he forgot to tell mother about the bit where he was rioting at the time.

Hugely suspicious of the lack of progress by the IPCC, the complete absence of any video footage or photos and a deafening silence by the boy himself, I am now expecting the truth to come out. If it does, newspapers like the Guardian and the New Statesman must surely give us as many column inches condemning the students as they did when it was supposed to be police officers who hit him.

Tens of thousands of protesters, thousands of police, widespread, directed and constant violent attacks on police lines and the only casualty they have has been charged and was never injured by us in the first place? I think that consigns the whole brutality nonsense to the garbage heap.

How come we never knew Alfie had been nicked? They kept that quiet didn’t they? No Guardian column written by mother on that bit of news?

Wouldn’t it be ironic if it was the investigation into so-called police brutality which had thrown up enough evidence to nick Meadows and not any police officers?

Meadows might be innocent. In any case, we have the right to know what is going on.

Oh, great.

Start a guaranteed contentious thread then delete your original post. Way to go.

The silence from Meadows and his rabid Guardian reading chums has been deafening.....especially since they found out he got hit by a piece of concrete thrown by his mates.

Chances of the BBC broadcasting press conferences by his University lecturing supporters, offering an apology to the Police....nil I would think.
