Almost as if some of them now spend too much time behind said keyboard and have forgotten where things lead when you allow marginalised groups and minorities to be blamed for problems caused primarily by the old, white establishment.

My answer is yes.... yes, the p*ssed up fool deserved it. The second one was the icing on the cake. donk!

They are in riot gear, scumbags have been throwing bricks and fireworks at them. How are they to know this drunk idiot isn't going to cause them harm?

Haven't heard with sound tbf, but whether he deserved it or not, he wasn't really a threat so not the smartest move by the copper, it could've easily inflamed an already pent up mob and encouraged much further unnecessary disorder.

Agree he was being a dick.

The issue is more that there was a line for him and they ran away in Birmingham and Leeds.

Watch it from behind the police line and the footage is telling , he wasn't alone there were a handful deliberately provoking the situation as the police looked to put distance between the two groups

But they don't know when a threat is going to come or something is going to escalate. Three police officers were injured in Plymouth due to flying debris. The bloke was a moron giving it large to a line of riot police. What did he think would happen. Being pissed is not an excuse, he's old enough to know better. No sympathy with him.

Have a look at the footage from the police lines in Birmingham and Leeds....

I agree he was being a bellend, the other day somebody was doing the same and had the dogs set on him.

I don't have sympathy with him either, I just think that kind of action could further provoke others.

Exactly - and you could see the cops in reserve being bought forward to behind the line in anticipation of potential escalation.

Where can I find that?

In the meantime, a handful hardly sounds like a mob in full riot mode. The guy had not adopted an aggressive stance, his hands were by his sides when he first got whacked with the shield. For all I know, he politely asked the police officer for his shoulder number before he got Twitter the second time. We have all seen it happen at the CBS arena when it was the Ricoh.

Edit I have now seen some video from behind police lines.There are a lot of youths pushing and shoving as one of their ilk is arrested, As far as I can see, it does not show the moment the drunk dickhead is hit twice by a shield, it does show what appears to be him sitting in the floor post the event. Having said that, in the original video there seems to be a woman who goes to his aid. I can’t see that in this video, so is it the same incident?

Great times, early 1980s. Full employment. You could leave your job on a Friday and by Monday you'd start somewhere else.

For anyone missing the irony, unemployment was at about 5% in 1979, climbed to 11% by the mid 80s, and never got back to 70s levels until the early noughties.

Unemployment rate (aged 16 and over, seasonally adjusted): % - Office for National Statistics

Not entirely sure what this has to do with the current unpleasantness, but there you go.

In the meantime, an explainer on two-tier policing. Most of this I agree with, but what happened in Birmingham last night still didn't look right to me.

Idea has been propagated by Tommy Robinson and others from far right but claim does not stand up to scrutiny
