They were doing this exact same thing in Dalston the other day. If anyone's out in Brixton I'd appreciate it if you could check if they're special cunts (SC on epaulettes) as they were in hackney

Saw them doing en masse stops on deliveroo, ubereats, etc delivery bikes on Brixton Hill on Friday evening, I assume checking for....special deliveries.
Imagine having to explain to someone their 18quid burger is cold cos the filth wanted to search your bag to make sure you wernt, in fact, dropping off powdered desert.

Possibly a bunch of stuff. I know a bunch of young people in care/asylum system are doing deliveroo jobs on the side. lots of borrowed natiional insurance numbers. wouldn't be supprised if it was scooter/insurence stuff too although a lot of it is done with electric bike/scooters

Report on the recent Dalton one.
novaramedia.com
It appears that police cracking down on delivery drivers is part of making the area a "hostile environment" in order to "clean up" the area.
I'm wondering if police checking riders details in central Brixton is same thing.
These are lowly paid workers. They work hard in all weathers to make a living.
A lot are immigrants. Brazilians etc. As in Hackney the first aim of police may be checking bikes. But if name comes up as wanted over immigration then cops may try arrest.
All in all its about getting certain kinds of people out of an area.

Saturday night’s immigration raid in Dalston, north London is part of a years-long effort to cleanse the area of its brown and Black couriers. Rivkah Brown reports.

There are a lot of food delivery drivers parked up in Atlantic road and outside Pop. During pandemic food delivery was one way that business kept going. Now pandemic has eased off and people can eat out more these delivery drivers are now being hounded. It's a bit crap really.

On the Met and immigration. This article about Tooting last year shows the Met do take part in immigration sweeps. Even if as in this case they say it was a coincidence they were stopping drivers in the same road as immigration enforcement.
This must be case of immigration enforcement working closely with the Met.

Raid on delivery riders in Tooting ‘looks like racial profiling’
Fast food delivery riders today said they felt “victimised” after police and immigration officers swooped on them in south London.

As you allude to, there is also a lot less work for the drivers now.
Rushy
basically a scrotum
Re checking bikes, there seem to be quite a few which have been deregulated. I often see them cruising along at fairly high speeds (for a bike) without pedaling. Easily at speed limit. Basically electric mopeds, presumably without a licence. Is that what they are looking for?
