Thoughts about the Manchester Airport event

First of all, the full facts, in detail, are not publicly known; I certainly do not know them.

Having said that, a few things do occur to me. The most forceful policeman in the now-infamous video clip plainly went far beyond what was necessary. His prisoner or opponent was lying face down, hands apparently bound. He was apparently not moving at all. The policeman kicked him in the head, a hard kick which might have killed the prisoner. The policeman then stamped down hard —he was wearing boots— another assault that might also have killed the prisoner.

Secondly, the context is not on film; allegedly, an immediately-earlier assault by the Muslim family on a policewoman and another. I suppose that that policewoman was the young woman running around like a headless chicken in the video. Useless.

Thirdly, I noticed in the later video that another totally useless policewoman was there, doing nothing but being a useless extra body. There should probably be a rethink about the utility of policewomen in uniformed front-line roles, as UK society becomes ever-more violent.

Fourthly, the comment of Richard Tice MP of Reform UK, applauding the (apparent) over-reaction by one or two of the policemen, was predictably brainless.

Fifthly, the cartoon below is increasingly relevant in the UK:

Actually, another point also occurred to me as I watched a few minutes of TV news coverage: how many of the passengers seen in the background were non-European.

As frequently said on the blog, Starmer has no real ideas. Hopeless.

Trump is, obviously, a very flawed individual, but it is hard to imagine what kind of American would rather vote for Kamala Harris, a useless box-ticking careerist and know-nothing.

I suppose that the Democrats hope that she will capture the votes of the “blacks and browns” (etc), a simple racially-based preference based on the fact that she is mixed-race [father Jamaican, mother Indian Tamil: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamala_Harris#Early_life_and_education].

A third “world war” would be devastating, probably on a scale exceeding even that of the 1939-45 conflict. We can only hope that humanity, i.e. those individuals and groups with real power, pull back from the brink. If not, Europe, and quite likely Asia and North America as well, may face near-wipeout.

Nadine Dorries, pretty brainless freeloader though she is, is right about the semi-gangster milieu that has grown up, over two decades or more, in the centre of the “Conservative” Party. Given my head, I should know how to get rid of nuisances of that sort, but I am “not allowed” to detail that, in our “free” and supposedly liberal country.

The most important reform would be to the electoral system. As frequently recently noted on the blog, at the recent General Election and out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 decided not to vote, a clear repudiation of the political system, the voting system, and the “main parties”.

Of the remaining (12) voters who did vote, a mere 4 voted Labour, 3 Conservative, 2 each for Reform UK and LibDem (though Reform got far more votes), and 1 (not quite) voted Green.

That is Starmer-Labour’s mandate and support-base— 4 people out of every 20.

A few years old; now, much more money going to Israel.
