It's section 93(appendix z)...An eye for an eye
Just the one reverse eye then?It's section 93(appendix z)...An eye for an eye
Surely they should turn the other cheek?
Nah
Conscious decision, effectively communicated and actioned.
Whether anyone likes it or not they couldn't risk looking stupid if the Coronation was disrupted so I imagine decided to just arrest anyone they thought would do and deal with the consequences later.
Much easier to go 'oh yeah, sorry about that, not to worry' after the event, even if it means paying off a few, than have decades of slagging off for not stopping serious disruption or worse.
Maybe not right, but pretty understandable (same reason why they let people put tents up overnight...you try putting a tent up and sleeping overnight on the Mall this weekend and see how you get on)

Met Police chief claims fake stewards caught with bottles of paint they planned to throw at coronation procession
The Metropolitan Police commissioner has claimed officers had to target a "criminal network" during the coronation, which included people posing as stewards - who were caught with bottles of paint they intended to throw at the parade.
Sir Mark Rowley claimed police had received intelligence that people planned to use rape alarms and loud hailers to disrupt the coronation, "extensively vandalise monuments" and "throw paint at the procession".
His defence of the police operation comes after six anti-monarchy protesters from the campaign group Republic who were arrested during the coronation were released without charges being brought against them.
Writing for the Evening Standard, Sir Mark described the arrests as "unfortunate" - but said it was "frustrating that there are things we are unable to share".

Crazy that. For those that skim it, two guys on a motorbike try to rob a pedestrian. Policeman rocks up and shoots them. Both robbers die.
Brasil.
That's the way to do it.
