Reasons to Despise the Police No 543: the Met virtue signalling on #InternationalWomensday

I do not despise Policemen or Policewomen. But increasingly I find ever more reasons to despise the institution that is the Police Force, especially Cressida Dick’s useless Met in the nige plagued cesspit that is London. All I want of a Police force is for it to act tough on serious crimes like burglary, muggings, rape and, in London, stabbings. Is that too much to ask? Are my views not reflective of what nearly everybody else in this country wants. Instead we get folks arrested for throwing snowballs or drinking a takeaway coffee alone in their car during lockdown. And now this…


Do Londoners really care about 30 female cops having a landmark patrol without a male cop present? Has lockdown London really become so dangerous that you need 30 officers on one patrol on the South Bank? How much manpower went into organising the photo shoot?  Might not all that effort have been better used on something like solving crimes or is that just too much to ask.


My taxes go on woke virtue signalling such as this episode. So do yours. Do you really feel that this is money well spent?
