Only to find themselves, as was inevitable in such dirty thieving company, overworked, underpaid, betrayed and made redundant in numbers. Sort of what was and is done to the great majority of working class citizens outside the M25 ghetto, even to the deliberate destruction of communities.<br /><br />So two things here:<br /><br />(a) If said rozzers HAVE turned unjustifiably or illegally on said tories (an action that should be cheered to the rafters) where was this collective decision made and who led it?<br /><br />and<br /><br />(b) Having presumably learned their lesson, will said rozzers now come clean about their corruption before, during and after Hillsborough, the Miners Strike and persecution of those who opposed far right toryism from the 1980s onwards?<br /><br />Really I couldn't give a shit about Green. Given his political actions the meff has it coming and I hope it sends him back to retire to whatever unearned capitalist featherbed he has. Nor do I have any sympathy for any policeman who might be caught in illegal vindictive activities. They deserve each other and what's coming (if anything other than a minor furor).<br /><br />What matters is an establishment of true justice available to all. The kind of freedom long curtailed by neofascist tories and their allies - people like Green - who have done so much to turn this country into a pale imitation of far right Yank crackpottery. A nation of paranoid spivs.<br /><br />I'll enjoy the spectacle of Green's come uppance in the full knowledge that mainstream media will ensure it won't last long. After all, they too have much to lose.<br /><br />Green stinks the gaff out. But we allowed people like him to build the gaff in the first place, all of it under the protection of the very uniforms that now want him gone.<br /><br />None of it is worth more than a horse laugh.

When I retired from the Civil Service, I would never had dreamed of taking official documents with me. Even without the routine reminder that I would still be subject to the Official Secrets Act.<br />Arnoldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-67232898946734428182017-12-02T03:13:18.882+00:002017-12-02T03:13:18.882+00:00Oh come on despite the Standard taking the Tory li...Oh come on despite the Standard taking the Tory line it asks legitimate questions such as why has a retired police office retained his police notebook which is evidence. Evidence often used in court cases to convict. He has removed police evidence and why?<br />Why is Zelo somehow promoting the notion that The Met and all British coppers are somehow holier than thou? Have they forgotten Hillsborough already?<br /><br />This doesn't mean these cops are not telling the truth but it doesn't prove they are being truthful. The fact is we'll basically never know as their is NO evidence, just claims and people are jumping to conclusions such as a man watched porn during work hours when even if true, they couldn't even know if that is factual. Maybe he stayed behind in his office after work/<br />And why now bring this up? Do we examine the backgrounds of all politicians to see what they allegedly did 10 years ago?<br />We don't need to get in the gutter with the Tory media and use every bit of alleged scuttlebutt to boot the Tories. Zelo was wrong about Corbyn when it was plainly clear to 100.000s of Labour supporters he was on the right path. And the Corbyn lunacy was driven by the media yet so many didn't seem to read how the media was losing it's power rapidly.<br />This matter can easily backfire badly on all involved and perhaps that's why Labour is remaining silent on it.Sam Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18294364000748130992noreply@blogger.com
