UK police are largely very, very good! The public isn’t helping policing these days

This week’s calls for the Met Police Commissioner to resign should be worrying to all of us. What exactly is that going to achieve?
I am always the first to speak of the need for consequences, but for goodness sake! the incident in question was a very clear & deliberate provocation.
Most of us agree 100% that every Londonder must be free to go about their business, but similar to Michael Gove strolling about at Victoria Station during a tense weekend, it just exhausts police resources when such situations turn nasty! Avoidance is always best, even if it inconveniences one a little (and yes, it isn’t always fair and we should be free to go wherever we please, but we also do need to be a little realistic at times). I’m a football supporter (Arsenal) and free as I may want society to be, I won’t wear my arsenal jersey to stroll into a Spurs pub be it match day or not….

an everyday professional wondering (as many others do daily) what all the animosity is all about? we all came with nothing (as babies), didn’t choose where we popped out and we will all leave (when we die) with nothing.
