I have been stopped and even arrested for things I have not done. One thing I didn't do was run though as I knew I had nothing to hide and had done nothing wrong.

I'm glad you are secure enough in your privilege...

The 2019/20 data indicates that Black people were about 5.7 times more likely to have force used on them than White people. The data further shows that officers were more than nine times as likely to have drawn Tasers (but not discharged them) on Black people than on White people. Additionally, Black people were eight times more likely to be ‘compliant handcuffed’ than White people and over three times more likely to have a spit and bite guard used on them than White people.

Privilege? What a ridiculous thing to say?


And irrespective of your link, the police force, especially the Met, are so woke right now that they're scared to let their officers do their job properly without fear of some sort of reprisal, normally by the repulsive media.
Like all these idiot protesters sitting in the roads of London. How on earth is that not wilful obstruction and a breach of the peace, yet the police are hardly on rapid response to remove them to let Londoners get on with their daily life without any more hinderance. Life is tough enough right now so we really don't need brainless morons upsetting everyone, because that is all that they're doing, they are not gaining any support by the decent general public whatsoever.
