Hardly comparable as it is the police doing one thing and the media the other
I see it as what our society is imposing. Out Government blocking use of the words in relation to Palestine action and our society responding in effect motivating the individual alleged to be inciting to riot (ie by having so readily responded to such incitements in the past).

I interpret Monbiot's comment as more of a comment on our society.

I'm three letters short, even if being posh and using actual anatomical terminology I'm a letter short.

In 1959 Ian Paisley read out the addresses of catholic homes in protestant areas to a rally of his supporters. When the homes were burnt out he said it was nothing to do with him, he was 'in the car on his way home'

It's an old playbook. Nothing new

Farage trying to manufacture his Reichstag fire moment and the media are obliging.

It's getting less and less subtle, and more and more obvious. He doesn't want any sort of resolution through democratic processes.

BBC R4 Today program had an expert (academic?) interviewed this morning who had neen monitoring public attitudes to the Police for years and years.

Apparently all Farâge's 'don't trust the Police' is rubbish. Surveys show public trust is high with a weird exception of GenZ where trust is down at only 44% but across all ethnic groups and genders (ie no white males mistrusting). And yhat hoes back some tome and not a recent change. The guess as to why is Social Media use by the age group though that's a theory not an established reason.

Bottom line was Fàrage is talking completely unfounded drivel when starting on about groups lost trust in Police.
