They were flanking the A40 / Newgate street. I was too shy to ask about the reason.
Probably someone inconvenienced a driver or something, so we need to make sure they’re jailed for life.
Possibly because of this case:
Court 10.15am trial of Petko Zhutev and four others, who were arrested after authorities siezed 200 million pounds worth of Cocaine at Portsmouth, which had arrived from Columbia. Over two tonnes of the drug was found hidden in banana boxes.

Armed police outside a criminal court where cases of terrorism and organised crime are tried. Who’d have thought…
The cases being heard/continuing today
murder of Kacey Boothe
£450m cocaine smuggling
Murder of Reece Newcombe
Murder of Lianne Gordon
A guy who is said to have issued a rallying call on Telegram for a “kill squad” to shoot people involved in the Covid-19 vaccine rollout and burn “Big Pharma” to the ground
Manslaughter, kidnap and false imprisonment of Mehmet Koray Alpergin
And one listed as Po 55/2024
It probably the cocaine or Po
Is four coppers with guns all we can afford these days when we need a “huge” armed police presence these days?
I love how that’s huge for us.
We need a fully armed trained police force now. Why its difficult to get recruitments. Many would prefer to be trained to the army standard for the police force. Then you will get new recruits.
