The travellers who killed PC Andrew Harper (using a vehicle) were 'unarmed'. Let's not hear anything further about Chris Kaba being 'unarmed'. All police officers know a vehicle can be used as a weapon. #bluelivesmatter

'I'm not going to discuss tactics or police numbers. We are here to support peaceful protest on both sides. No antifa were driven away in police vans. We will prevent and detect crime.' Taking no nonsense from the usual suspects GB News & Telegraph 👏 #eppingprotest

'Police commanders will use whatever tactics they decide, to allow peaceful protests, and prevent and detect crime.' In another veiled dig at Nigel Farage, @BJH251 suggests elected politicians should understand how their comments can result in people being hurt. #eppingprotest

'Was T/ACC Stuart Hooper wrong when he said your officers did not escort counter-protestors to the hotel?' I very much like @BJH251 but I didn't really understand the answer. #eppingprotest

'I'm not going to apologise, and I'm not going to resign because some politicians demand it. We will not tolerate people smashing up police vans and assaulting officers' 👏 #eppingprotest

'It's about communities' says @BJH251 #eppingprotest

Community, community, partners, community etc

The Home Office 'Migrants in Epping hotel are not being moved' after a fresh wave of protests erupted outside another Canary Wharf hotel. Looks like Tommy Robinson will appear at the weekend then! #BackTheBlue #EppingProtests metro.co.uk/2025/07/22/hom… via @MetroUK

At almost every major football match, police 'escort' rival fans to and from the ground. It's a standard public order tactic. @EssexPoliceUK should stand firm despite Nigel Farage describing them as 'an absolute disgrace' #ReformUK #BackTheBlue #EppingProtests

Nigel Farage has called @EssexPoliceUK 'an absolute disgrace' for allegedly 'escorting' antifa to the 🔔 Hotel. It's becoming increasingly obvious. Reform UK are not our friends. #EppingProtests #BackTheBlue

There's a lot of noise about the Reform UK Law & Order policies. El Salvador, 'strapping male' beat officers, 30,000 new prison spaces, etc. But the policy we need to question is 'reducing crime by 50% in five years'. Apart from changing the counting rules, is this possible?

Today saw the release of the latest set of Home Office stats relating to Police Workforce for England and Wales. At first I was pleased to see that they agreed with the Met Figures, and clearly show that Voluntary Resignation is currently the most heavily used Exit Route BUT...

That an *English Literature graduate* of Bedfordshire Uni required *an interpreter* should trigger an immediate revocation of Bedfordshire's right to grant visas - and a wider investigation into its degree standards. It won't though, because we're no longer a serious country.

James O’Brien has finally apologised. Says he read out the hateful comments about Jews in “good faith”. What do we think?

Have you tried releasing the hostages?

That face when you just threw away your entire professional and personal reputation to defend a male doctor’s desire to watch the female nurses get naked.
