Lancashire Police are taking car registrations on the road near BAE Systems ahead of Palestine demo. The police officer confirmed to one of legal observers that this information will be going on a database. #nocomment #Palestine

GMP had its new Special Operations Unit out yesterday. The use of force appeared excessive & disproportionate towards members of the public. New unit, same old practice, no collar numbers!! Contact us if you were a victim of police violence. #Manchester #nocomment

These images of what appears to be a Merseyside police officer not displaying mandatory collar numbers is concerning. @MetroMayorSteve please seek assurances from @MerseyPolice all police officers will display collar numbers regardless of where else the officer displays them.

This officer from Merseyside Police on two separate occasions doesn’t wear collar numbers, won’t give them when asked!! @netpol #protest
