Such a hard video to watch, but watch those brave boys be defended to the hilt by the quislings in the media tomorrow.

It seems rather disturbing to me that the police are beating up innocent protesters, routinely lying to the public and yet the leader of the opposition, so desperate to be the voice of law and order, has absolutely nothing to say about it whatsoever.
Yes, like this...

That video is appalling. That's assault and battery at a minimum and maybe even worse. Hope that unfortunate young woman is ok.
It's sickening they could easily have killed her. As far as I'm aware she hasn't come forward or been identified yet. There are also videos of riot shields being used in a downward motion on sitting protesters (which is apparently called blading).

I fail to see anything she may have done to provoke such a harsh response. They need to pull his badge, he's clearly not cut out for this kind of interaction with the public.

Caught some big cheese in a uniform on the news earlier, talking about a protester "coming into contact with a shield." Wonder will they charge him with causing damage to police property? They seem out of control over there, basically legitimised by a combination of an authoritarian government, a totally pliant, cuckolded media and an abjectly toothless opposition. Pretty disturbing to imagine where that combination might lead right now.

Was perusing this Twitter thread about the New Labour doc on the BBC and just about managed to contain myself until the bit where Peter Mandelson is described as honourable for actually resigning when he was caught for corruption. Actually physically gagged. Horrifying to contemplate how low the bar is being set by the current bunch of political vandals.

Conservative mp David Amess fatally stabbed while conducting his constituency clinic. Second British elected politician to be murdered in 5 years. Truly horrifying.

I wish his family the best. May they never find themselves in the vulnerable position his votes in parliament created for so many.

“Britain is like an old theme park sliding into the Atlantic compared to modern China,” said Keating, who was Australia’s prime minister from 1991 to 1996.

However accurate it is, that's gotta sting coming from a former colony. Worse when that colony is Australia.

They probably just dismiss Keating as a relic of the past and the future is free trade and brexit. But I read a stat that Australia's trade with China is 6 times more than its trade with the US and UK combined so it sounds like pretty good realpolitik to me.

Definitely—geography and economy dictate interests.
