Iceland, but Aldi is closer..

I totally agree with the hard line approach but I can already see the queue of no win no fee solicitors lining up to represent the little fuckers in a cases against the police.

And ultimately one will get killed and then everyone will be up in arms; "oh how did that happen, whos fault is it an innocent kid on a bike died?"... forget that he had a string of muggings behind the little shit! That north London case where the kid died while being chased by the police is just an example of the type of shite storms yet to come..

If the police cannot use a fucking water cannon to stop rioters then ramming little scrotes on scooters will definitely is destined to fail...

Too many do-gooders willing to pander to criminals while making it impossible for victims to get any semblance of justice..

Total agreement, in the past the police have had to call off chases with mopeds because the riders take too many risks, about time we as a country grew some balls and stopped giving the crims the advantage, if they tried escaping the cops in the USA and many other countries, they'd be shot.

I wouldn't want to be the first officer that kills one of them or leaves them with life changing injuries.

I can see why the police are doing it but can't see how it can ever be deemed a proportional response

How would you stop them? Stingers don't work, chasing them don't work as they bolt down pavements putting members of the public at risk, they're often on stolen bikes so can't trace them after the event.

I do get what you are saying but they chose that path and if they know that path might lead to being knocked off their bike then that's a choice they make.

Anyway. Half the videos I've seen on Facebook have been them just falling off after losing control.

Time for the country to back a more robust course of action for all crimes. This tactic is a positive step forward but we need to take control back of our streets and hit everyone hard who commits crime. The criminal justice system has to start by delivering tougher sentences. 10 years minimum for carrying a knife. No excuses.

It’s been a long time coming, the government have brought in new legislation this year which protects the police from prosecution when these scum bags get hurt.

There was a traffic Bobby up in crown court last year for driving his car into the path of a scrambler rider who had been riding on pavements during the day in the city centre, the rider suffered minor injuries but the Bobby was charged with dangerous driving. He got found not guilty by a jury and the judge slammed the cps for charging him in the first place.

That and other cases brought about the new legislation. The bobbies have been waiting a long time for the restrictions to be lifted but even now, only highly trained traffic officers can use these tactics and you’ll see on the videos that they wait until the speed drops sufficiently before they knock them off. Every one of the riders gets up and tries to run off. It has been publicised that these tactics will be used so it is their choice to take those risks. I’m all for it.

To be honest, a lot of crime is impulsive and therefore it's fairly delusional to imagine criminals making rational calculations, that they would decide against if the justice was harsher etc. When you strip it back, the rational decision would have been to steralise their parents but I'm not ready for that approach yet.

I'm pretty sure there is no new legislation, just new guidelines within the Met (who I think are the only force doing this).

As I said before I wouldn't want to be the first officer to kill one of them. I can see why the Met are doing this, they are high profile crimes but legally it is leaving them wide open

I’m not sure they are. Someone high up had decided it constitutes reasonable force.

In the ‘yellow’ card issued to troops in NI and the ‘white’ card issued to UK military while carrying out armed guard in the UK, does have a paragraph stating - you may open fire to prevent a suspect from escaping if there is no other way to make and arrest and if they are a danger to the public (not exactly because my memory isn’t that good) oh and it also said ‘except in Scotland’

So, violent armed criminals, making away, and still a threat could be shot, so touching the back wheel with a bumper is less lethal.

Does look to be a bit of an act of desperation from the met, yes they the moped gangs have gotten away too many times but it looks like a publicity stunt to show the met are being pro active in the light of bad headlines and the rise in the use of mopeds as a tool by the thieves..

Fact is even in the met which has a large force even after the cuts it all depends on luck in having a pursuit vehicle close by, the thieves may just decide to stay on the pavement as a way of avoiding being rammed and put pedestrians at risk..

The met have had to do something though as the thieves have been making them look ineffective..

Unfortunately, because the prisons are over-flowing, these criminals are unlikely to ever be given a custodial sentence should they ever get to court.

And they know this.

This, and other anti-social behaviour, has gone unchecked for too long. Time to get tough.

The law should be that if you're injured whilst in the process of committing a crime you have no legal recall. These scum that batter a 70 year old woman and steal their pension money, then get sympathy when they complain about someone tripping them up as they run away. It's just pathetic.

Nice to see most are in agreement for a change.

Time to drop the PC BS and start sorting these scum out.

Stop pandering to them, mind you as others have said they will probably walk out of court smiling once the judges hear their sob stories.

It's not dangerous driving. It is a trained tactical manoeuvre applied in appropriate circumstances. It will have already been run by their legal teams.

If it's done safely then I agree with it.

I've seen people, who were innocent parties, have legs cut out from cars because of Police driving.

I've never been comfortable with Police chasing cars or bikes in my town, and almost being run over by a chased driver has made me even more wary.

It doesn't help that my area 8s awash with young criminals at the moment.

As are all areas, its not just London, believe me.

Inner cities fair worst just due to the volume but even out here in the sticks there has been a big increase in car theft recently.

The Spanish police have it right.

The Local police turn up first, try it like our police do, diplomacy etc.

Then the Guardia Civil turn up and do it the right way, we watched them pistol whip a yob who had tried to snatch a bag in a bar, they escorted him into the ambulance of course.

It's a shame that most think rough jusrice is the solution.

We have massive cuts in the police combined with kids who realise that a life if crime pays way better than a zero hour contract and is far less hassle than arguing about benefit sanctions.

Everyone is looking at the cause and effect of the police actions but what about the cause and effect of a society which is being condemned by the UN for the amount of people living in poverty

I think it is a fantastic idea. Also, it would be better if the police, after knocking them off their bikes they would then back up, and run over the feckers.

Another topic but the number of people on the road without tax and insurance is scary.if you are 15 and drive a bike on the road illegally, it is just as bad as steeling the bike, nothing cool about this at all

"Time for the country to back a more robust course of action for all crimes. This tactic is a positive step forward but we need to take control back of our streets and hit everyone hard who commits crime. The criminal justice system has to start by delivering tougher sentences. 10 years minimum for carrying a knife. No excuses."

I agree, though I think it should be 20 years so the ‘scrotes’ carrying the knives actually serve 10 years, not the 5 out of 10 they would.

Either that or change the law to reflect ‘minimum 10 years before probation can be applied for’.

"It’s been a long time coming, the government have brought in new legislation this year which protects the police from prosecution when these scum bags get hurt.

There was a traffic Bobby up in crown court last year for driving his car into the path of a scrambler rider who had been riding on pavements during the day in the city centre, the rider suffered minor injuries but the Bobby was charged with dangerous driving. He got found not guilty by a jury and the judge slammed the cps for charging him in the first place.

That and other cases brought about the new legislation. The bobbies have been waiting a long time for the restrictions to be lifted but even now, only highly trained traffic officers can use these tactics and you’ll see on the videos that they wait until the speed drops sufficiently before they knock them off. Every one of the riders gets up and tries to run off. It has been publicised that these tactics will be used so it is their choice to take those risks. I’m all for it.

I'm pretty sure there is no new legislation, just new guidelines within the Met (who I think are the only force doing this).

As I said before I wouldn't want to be the first officer to kill one of them. I can see why the Met are doing this, they are high profile crimes but legally it is leaving them wide open"

Current legislation has been amended to take into account the high level of police training meaning they are protected by the law rather than face prosecution for careless or dangerous driving. They didn’t have such protection prior to this amendment.

They can line up all you like but they’ll be queuing for a long time. Police drivers are now protected from being prosecuted in such circumstances. That doesn’t mean they can do what they like but as long as they stick to policy they’re pretty much water right.

I am struggling with your logic here.

Sorry but you are wrong. There is a propsed bill but according to the police federation's own website as recently as last week parliament ran out of time to discuss it. The bill should provide exactly what you say but it is far from being law and the Met are acting ridiculously in somehow assuming that a proposed law indemnifies their officers from acting in a way that has until very, very recently been vetoed

There's a big difference between violence and using reasonable force in the circumstances to conclude the incident.

Sure an holistic approach is needed to educate and prevent, but people are slightly sheltered and delusional if you think some offenders are open to reasoning and appeal. Some act with extreme violence and aggression and a robust approach is the only safe way.

Bottom line is they steel the mopeds because in congested areas they make the best getaway vehicle. If the police happen to be near the incident and happen to be able to get close enough then they need to stop the chase quickly.

It will still be a rare event as normally criminals don't commit crime in front of police pursuit vehicles.

I am struggling with your logic here.

In our world the police would have access to turn on lasers set at neck height, save bumping the little cherubs off their bikes

No trial necessary then...simple.

Would also save us billions in court time.

You've obviously never experienced first hand living in either a place with an armed police force or even a police state -think Some latin American countries, The LA riots, the events that led to BlackLivesMatter and Apartheid South Africa -innocent people tend to get killed by trigger happy police -and tasers too can be lethal to some (especially those with heart conditions or epilepsy)

I think the option you are looking for is don't be a twat and the police are unlikely to trouble you. If they approach you for some reason you don't understand, don't be a twat is still a good tactic..

How many times can you be stopped by the police in one month before it's harassment.Or is it just a sign of the times..and the youth should suck it up.

If you go outside wearing a tracksuit and aren't playing sport then you're asking to get stopped by the police "

This is my point.A family member who earns a 6 figure salary at Astra Zeneca jogs at 5.30am before work.He wears a hoodie lives in a very wealthy neighbourhood yet gets pulled twice a month for being mixed race in a hoodie at 6 am running down his own street.The police know him by name now... Yet still assume he's guilty on sight as he ticks all their boxes

I agree, and anyone in pupblic wearing a onsey should be executed instantly, Those wearing baseball caps backwards should have their heads turned around to match the cap etc.

But bad fashion is not actually a crime, yet

"*there

And then the police wonder why they are being attacked... hmmmm

I don’t think they wonder at all. But people who attack police often cry like bitches about victimisation for years after, because the police will treat them as hostile forever more.

Yup -a whole lotta cryin going on when the local riots kick off -ooh let's see now, Brixton, LA riots, Tottenham Riots, BlackLivesMatter -hmm hmm hmm"

There are usually a fucktonne of rioters crying after major riots, either in A&E, cells or when the police come knocking them up days after the fact and drag them away in handcuffs.

Now if the home office let the police have all that lovely COIN equiptment that’s stored away rotting from Operation banner, including the snatches, Saxons and water cannons, the teargas grenades, the baton rounds, and what ever the fuck those electric shock things that they used to wire up on some of the armour....

Also available but not used over here are the less than lethal options loved in the states like bean bag rounds, that wave thing that’s like a bank of tazers that fires a few hundred live wires across a crowd.

The strives that can induce fits in a high percentage of a crowd, stun guns built into riot shields and of course filling the water cannons tanks with CS/CN mix to make those hot sweaty mobs really uncomfortable.

And at the first sign of acid or petrol bombs - live rounds.

Because cunts lives don’t matter.

Also by the black lives matter comment were you suggesting that scooter gangs, rioters and all that is purely the domain of black folks? It tends to be whoever comes off certain estates and post codes regardless of colour.

Oh right, so -Edson Da Costa, Ian Tomlinson, Jean Charles de Menezes, The victims of Bloody Sunday were all acting like twats were they? And these are just UK victims btw."

If the Paras on Bloody Sunday we’re firing indiscriminately into a crowd of of over 2,000 people and only killed 14 people, I’d say 1Para should send Bcoy and SF platoon on a range course ASAP also if you think 3 rifle platoons and a support company platoon could conspire to deliberately murder then cover it up and no one grass since 1972? Wow those paras are really into the code of silence.

Have you ever looked at the injuries suffered by the security forces that day?

Only killing 14 people in my opinion showed tremendous restraint.

Not all rioters are a type but a lot of riots against police brutality tend to have a consensus of victims that experience themselves being percieved that way.

How the hell do come to that daft conclusion?

What I don't like the idea of is a police state where the police have a shoot first ask questions later mentality and justice is at the end of a rifle barrel. I don't like the idea of people being picked on necessarily because of their demographic, race, dress code, address, or any other needless prejudice.

Profiling is an interesting concept, why do you think the police have an expectation that a certain type of individual will be doing wrong.

Police have targets to hit they have to make arrests, do you think they will be wasting time pulling people over and harressing them because that person is wearing trainers or a large gold necklace.

Or do you think that maybe they pull a lot of people over and experience has told them what to look for in some one that might be doing wrong.

Let's turn that concept on it's head shall we? -what would you say if that "type" just happened to be black and the profiling in question was that they didn't deserve a decent education because they were more likely to be involved in activities that you didn't need an education for? I don't know about you, but I would call that racism.

Do you think that just maybe they might just be editing said shows or looking for the most salacious footage and even, shock, horror, I Know, perhaps even supressing footage of when they get it terribly wrong? Or do you think this is a completely unbiased factual meldrama that is showing the "facts" as it is?

And discriminating against age isn't ageist, or social class isn't classist? The education issue was not meant to be an illustration of the police's powers btw -it was meant as an example of turning the concept around to parrallel it to the education system (i.e. turning the concept on it's head?).

I’m not sure that’s what that expression means, but now that you have put a little context round your post I understand what you mean.

The education system has its own problems, back in the day they used to apply a process called streaming where children were placed according to their apparent attainment. That’s fine if those children were given help set at their level, but more often than not it was more likely to be a dumping ground. These are the kids that won’t amount to much so let’s not bother with them.

I don’t work in education so I have no idea if that’s still the case

I don't think that turning a concept on it's head is anything other than "Completely reversing the principles or interpretation of an idea or argument" -and don't really see how my twisting of the context was any differenet to that definition -but, that is an irrelevant side show to my point anyway.

I don't think I was saying that education is doing this today, what i was saying was that we would find it unacceptable if education was indeed doing this and that why is it any different if the police use the same metrics to modify their behaviour against certain sectors of the wider community? -a subtle but distinct difference.

Yes and -see my earlier post on this exact point -plenty of people acting perfectly innocently have been killed by police for no justifiable reason. Presumption of innocence before the law is a fundamental point of civilised society -that and a clear separation between, Law & order /criime & punishment.

The sad fact of life is that often bad people do look alike. I had a motorbike stolen last year we got them on cctv doing it. They looked just like the lads in these videos. Late teens/early twenties tracksuit bottoms hoodies puffa jackets. Your typical chav, so I’m pretty glad the police are being hard with people that look like that, cos 4 of these little bastards cost me 2 grand, and maybe just maybe one of the little f**kers will get run over. That thought brings a lovely warm feeling to my tummy.

What about those committing massive financial frauds that leave people destitute?

Do they have a type that we can easily identify and possibly repetedly harass everytime the enter or leave a bank?

Should they be stopped and searched or have their computers randomly scanned by fraud investigators?

Bear in mind that the damage they do often far exceeds the value of those commiting petty thefts and muggings.

No one should be hassled, but should they be subject to the same rules as the rest of us, absolutely. The police have to have due cause to search some one, be that a chav or a city wide boy

"I wouldn't want to be the first officer that kills one of them or leaves them with life changing injuries.

I can see why the police are doing it but can't see how it can ever be deemed a proportional response No offence to you but that is the sort of response that will allowed these sort of crime's to continue to take place.If you live by the sword then you must expect to die by the sword.

Shall we speak again when your child, sister, brother, mother, father etc are killed as innocent victims of police brutality?Nowt as blind as them that can see

I get the impression he's one of these who just likes to argue "

Are you by any chance tone of those that takes issue with a difference of opinion -or one of those that doesn't quite like it when a debate doesn't flow along with a commonly agreed set of rules and code of conduct?

I’m not sure what’s wrong with wanting to argue, he can argue if he wants that doesn’t mean he’s right

"The sad fact of life is that often bad people do look alike. I had a motorbike stolen last year we got them on cctv doing it. They looked just like the lads in these videos. Late teens/early twenties tracksuit bottoms hoodies puffa jackets. Your typical chav, so I’m pretty glad the police are being hard with people that look like that, cos 4 of these little bastards cost me 2 grand, and maybe just maybe one of the little f**kers will get run over. That thought brings a lovely warm feeling to my tummy.

What about those committing massive financial frauds that leave people destitute?

Do they have a type that we can easily identify and possibly repetedly harass everytime the enter or leave a bank?

Should they be stopped and searched or have their computers randomly scanned by fraud investigators?

Bear in mind that the damage they do often far exceeds the value of those commiting petty thefts and muggings."

Why do you feel you have to justify what they are doing by putting forward a non comparative example?

It may seem petty to you but I bet it doesn't to the poor victims.

Do gooders, never actually do good!

I think "getting back at the bankers" is what enthused many people to vote leave. Trying to derail the gravy train, but they didn't realise how much the conservative party is addicted to gravy!!

Difference is that most of those bankers pay tax, even tho a lot try and avoid it.

I’m pretty sure they arnt claiming benefits and living with their mums.

It’s horses for courses, steal a moped then leg it from the police. The police need a way of catching you and at the moment that way is to knock you off your stolen moped.

Indulge in risky/illegal financial practices then the punishment should fit the impact of the crime. If the impact is to bring down an economy then you should go to prison for a very long time

I remember Ross Kemp doing a dangerous gangs of the world documentary and filmed an episode in Kingston, Jamaica.

Ross was shocked at the way suspects were treated: JA police don't ramp! Ross asked the policeman if it was necessary to be so rough and lock suspects up so readily.

The sergeant looked at Ross as if he was talking to an idiot. He said "do you want me to deal with them here or leave them free to go to England?"

"you only have to watch any of the TV live cop shows to know they are TWATS, the trouble being, that a TWAT is the only person who doesn't know he is a TWAT.

So your whole concept of the justice system is based on watching TV live cop shows -wow, you are incredibly well informed aren't you.

Do you think that just maybe they might just be editing said shows or looking for the most salacious footage and even, shock, horror, I Know, perhaps even supressing footage of when they get it terribly wrong? Or do you think this is a completely unbiased factual meldrama that is showing the "facts" as it is?

I was intending to reply to this quote,

I think the option you are looking for is don't be a twat and the police are unlikely to trouble you. If they approach you for some reason you don't understand, don't be a twat is still a good tactic..

Yes and -see my earlier post on this exact point -plenty of people acting perfectly innocently have been killed by police for no justifiable reason. Presumption of innocence before the law is a fundamental point of civilised society -that and a clear separation between, Law & order /criime & punishment."

Yep i made the same point on my first message,

Imagine we're all on a ship similar to titanic. Imagine the wealthy are upstairs in their finery and luxury, having a jolly good time, no expense spared. Imagine the leave voters are the Irish etc, living down in the bilges, with nothing. If they pull the "plug" out, the ship sinks, they all drown. But who loses the most?

I bet the Irish aren't insured by lloyds of London.

I get you point let's drag them all down to where we are and then start again.

I'm always going to be in favour of burning it all down and starting again..

I'm just not convinced brexit will be the fuse that ignites the dynamite.

Thing is -there's a very thin line between defending your rights /the rights of your property and Vigilante justice. Things can quickly escalate to the point that you end up stabbing or even killing him with his own knife (I am not intimating that you would btw) and then he has been killed for effectively punching your car. It is situations like these why we need to have responses/ a police force that uses only necessary force to restrain/ remove said individual to custody so that they can in turn face the criminal justice system and be given a fair trial. Anything else just becomes mob/ thug rule -I for one would be very fearful for my son were this to be the case (and yes he does wear a hoodie just like 99% of his peers).

"I totally agree with the hard line approach but I can already see the queue of no win no fee solicitors lining up to represent the little fuckers in a cases against the police.

And ultimately one will get killed and then everyone will be up in arms; "oh how did that happen, whos fault is it an innocent kid on a bike died?"... forget that he had a string of muggings behind the little shit! That north London case where the kid died while being chased by the police is just an example of the type of shite storms yet to come..

If the police cannot use a fucking water cannon to stop rioters then ramming little scrotes on scooters will definitely is destined to fail...

Too many do-gooders willing to pander to criminals while making it impossible for victims to get any semblance of justice..

But then will be the time for the country to grow a backbone

As long as they have a helmet on, then they are getting what is coming to them. If they haven’t got a helmet on i think that might be a different matter, bordering on manslaughter if the worse the happens!! Sorry, rant over!!!

Reminds me of a situation in a town where i grew up. A teenage gang was a nuisance in the area, damaging property and assaulting joggers and teens. The police were essentially being made to look foolish. In the end a couple of guys went to the area where they hung out, beat the biggest one up. pointed to the next biggest, told him "tomorrow its you". Result was no more gang. Now this was a small Hampshire town in the early naughties, do i think this would work in South or East London? No. No i don't.
