  1. Propping up the corrupt establishment one arrest at a time, I remember the whole van full of protesters dragged away without reason

  2. Cool, cool. So what’s going to be done to stop this kind of thing happening in the future? I’m sure the cops are working hard to improve…

  3. The police seem to be ever more interfering in non crime events these days. It’s time they got off harassing old ladies from Facebook and got back to real crime

  4. >Hill was subsequently released but later asked to voluntarily attend a police station. “I was made aware then that it wasn’t so voluntary so I did go to the police station,” he said.

    It’s always worth being aware of these traps the police use to pad their stats. Speak to a solicitor immediately after an interaction with the police.

  5. So they nick him to get him off the street, illegally, then just go ‘lol sorry bout dat?’

    Needs to be a sacking to make the point it isn’t acceptable.

  6. I love the word unlawful. It basically means illegal but with no chance of any real consequences

  7. Considering how King Charles has acted in these past few weeks I am now fully on the heckler’s side.

  8. It’s proper chilling that he was arrested and charged for simply saying “who elected him”.

  9. Why? Is it because he’s a posh wanker? Sounds mentally ill, not surprised he got arrested.

  10. A pathetically small amount when they knew at the time that they were abusing their powers.
