Can you point out the thuggery by the police? I watched about half of that and just saw a load of idiots yelling abuse at the police, who seemed to be displaying remarkable restraint.

Didn't see any 'thuggish' attacks myself, so maybe you could point them out?
Maybe you need a trip to spec savers ?, those "Idiots" are British citizens exercising their right to protest peacefully.

It's a long video, so please point out the time that the police 'thuggishness' takes place. I'm sure that it's in there as you posted the link especially to draw attention to it.

In fact the police seemed to show admirable restraint with those yellow vested citizens screaming 'fking s' in their faces during their peaceful protest

Its long its boring. Any bit i saw consisted of coppers stopping people blocking the road, or having a chat. Admittedly i skipped through with the sound off. It doesn't seem to compare to videos of France where people are getting beaten with truncheons/stun grenaded etc. I'd sy a distinct lack of thuggishness....unless I'm missing the sarcasm?

Nice.

You posted a video saying that it showed police thuggishness during a peaceful protest, but you're unable to point out where this happens in the video.

I'm going to suggest politely that it's you who are lacking in the thought department, as your link doesn't seem to contain what you think it does.

Have a good day.

I managed about 5 minutes with sound on. Hi-vis morons chanting scum at the police who quickly and efficiently arrested someone (couldn't see what for). Yelling into their faces with megaphones. The police showed extreme restraint given the absolute shower they had in front of them. They look exactly as you'd expect Qanon fruitloops like dasigty to look.

I think we are all capable of a lot more thought than you realise.

My thoughts are that you are a fool, TBH.

Our wonderful boys in blue attacking yellow vest protest in London last week.

They seem to have been taking lessons from their French counterpart in thuggery.
So our yellow vest protestors are just a load of BNP mouth breather types who mill about chanting abuse whilst randomly pointing mobile phones at each other and the police. Brilliant. I’m not sure what their ‘message’ is supposed to be (I saw a sign that said NoDeal No Problem so maybe Brexit related?). Perhaps they don’t know either - bit of a nice day - let’s go shout “faacking kaants” at the Police.

I did love the bloke with the megaphone who led the chant of “shame on you SPG” and then tailed off with “or whatever you’re called...” 3:15 if anyone wants a genuine LOL!

I suppose its one way to drive traffic (and revenue). Personally, I think you are a troll and should Foxtrot Oscar.

TBH all sympathy was lost at the point of 'stolen scooter' followed by running from the police

Ahh, the UN of Srebenica fame. You'd have thought they'd be busy sorting out Venezuela, Middle East etc etc. Joke of an organisation.

Don’t think that our Pound Shop thugs would have the “trou du cul” to engage French cops.
