It the handle that stirs the beer that makes the difference.
Beer , chips and fighting … the British way of life.

Agree, but you forgot the coke.
They are 100% on the nose beers.

Unfortunately, several of the “land sharks” were hurt the other night.
I might still add that clip to the “brick in the bollocks” one amongst my Schadenfreude collection.

As much as I don’t sympathise with the rioters, is that really the proper police procedure?

Police have procedures?

The dog or some of the other bits? They were certainly giving warnings to them. I could see a bit whereby they were kicking a man in the leg on the ground; I think he had just kicked out at another officer.

Pretty much. They’ll insist he was given a warning and did not co-operate with a request to move back.
Ruff justice perhaps ?

They might be struggling to have a documented procedure to combat every behaviour and scenario that todays fucked up world throws at them.
That may be true, but surely this particular scenario is rather common?
Probably.
They should have shown restraint.
Wait long enough for his mates to brick him?

Didn’t that already happen in the video though…
I’m genuinely curious because I want to know what policing decisions go into something like this. Do they choose to de-escalate? Do they limit the amount of force they use or do they go in immediately to incapacitate/neutralise?
Were I not such a Luddite, I would set that clip to a Pink Floyd soundtrack.
All in all it’s just another brick in the balls…

The clip looked like it could be from that film. I think Roger Waters missed a trick there.

There are a whole raft of recommendations that cover it. Mostly to do with compliance with the human rights act.
This is the outline of what they are actually taught:
