How aggressive are the police in those videos! They've look like they've just arrived with no knowledge of what's caused the disturbance. Nobody is attacking them or having a go, yet they are aiming tazers and shouting at people, who have their arms up to show no aggression on their part. Shameful!

(Videos not playing for me on nitter but that might be script- and ad-blocking stuff my end.)
Thanks - the videos are working for me.
They won't play for me either, but one of the messages from a family member makes a good point. If the men had attacked the police, why haven't they been charged or remanded? They are all at home now.

Yeah, innit. They'd have been arrested there and then if they attacked a copper for sure.
If anyone clicks on that ^ particular tweet, be warned - the replies are really racist.

Worked for me, too, and I was shocked to see the way a female officer shoved the elderly lady. She's tiny, and if she'd gone over, could easily have broken a hip or something.
According to this video the brother and father of the man who was kicked in the head are police officers themselves.

Yes, I was shocked at that part too, shoving anyone like that is also unacceptable. I appreciate that, if she had been the one hit in the face, that she was acting in pain and perhaps acting unintentionally, but again the older lady has just been racially abused and seen her family tasered and kicked/stomped on.

Some of the comments on there are a bit unpleasant - though there's some decent footage of a racist cunt getting sparked out on a tube train.

Least noticed poster 2007
The one; "It’s violent Muslims like this that have converted me from Pro-Palestine to Pro-Israel. Israel has been dealing with this violent vermin for hundreds of years."
Yeh of course you were Pro-Palestine but now support Israel because you're against violence.

Yeah, you're right. The young lad repeatledly advises the older white guy to leave him alone. But instead he just gets more aggressive, then after he makes the "afro boy" comment gets well and truly twatted by what seems like a fine young man. It really doesn't give the example the right wing poster thinks it gives.The one; "It’s violent Muslims like this that have converted me from Pro-Palestine to Pro-Israel.

I read that one of them was a cop, but not two. Nice way to treat your fellow police officers!

Same.
That doesn't mean she was attacked by the men.

I didn’t say that it was. I simply made an observation from what was visible within the video.
I expect the reason her nose was bleeding will be evident on the body worn video footage. Which I haven’t seen, presumably you haven’t either.
I doubt the footage will be released while there is the possibility of criminal charges or disciplinary action.

It's dangerous up North, have never spent a night north of the North Circular in my entire life and I'm old, very old.
It's not just the North, it's everywhere that has police who are more interested in their egos, rather than protecting people.

I think it bears repeating that (imo) it's really very interesting that the people that have allegedly attacked police officers including allegedly breaking a female officer's nose have been released without charge, nor has any bodycam footage been released as far as I'm aware.

Cliff Mitchell: Ex-Met PC jailed for 13 years for multiple counts of rape (Warning: this article includes distressing details of the crimes committed by former PC Clifford Mitchell)
(Source: Metropolitan Police)
Sentencing Mitchell earlier today, Mrs Justice May said former PC Clifford Mitchell's crimes were so serious “a sentence of life imprisonment is required”. Mrs Justice May said:
“Cliff Mitchell is clearly a deeply troubled young man… [his] serious offending appears to have arisen for desire for control.
“The fact he was a police officer, albeit for a short time, will make imprisonment a harsher experience for him.”
“I am left with nothing which might allow me confidently to say whether or when the danger which Cliff Mitchell represents will lessen,” the judge said.
“At present, therefore, I am sure that he will continue to be a danger into the future.”
A former Metropolitan Police officer who launched a “campaign of rape” against his victims has had his sentence increased at the Court of Appeal.
Former PC Cliff Mitchell carried out more than 50 sex attacks against two female victims between 2014 and 2023, including in September last year when he tied a woman up with cable ties and put duct tape over her mouth:

Jail term increased for serial rapist ex-Metropolitan Police PC
An appeal by PC Cliff Mitchell to have his sentence reduced - on the grounds of his previous good character not being taken into account in his original sentence - was dismissed.

I'd be interested to know why the investigation was originally NFA'd in 2017. It might have saved a lot of trauma and misery if they'd locked the fucker up 6 years earlier.
Another Manchester Airport video - I still haven't seen any sign of police being assaulted.
