Most of what is wrong with the World, in a screen-cap from the BBC News website; They have a page of icons (5 or 6 across the screen width) which viewers can click on to get more details of the illustrated story. Occasionally two adjacent icons add up to more than either story says by itself.
There are two sides to this 'police car rams cow' story... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cnkkp7eejyqo Of course it is regrettable to see an animal injured. But here in the UK four or five people (on average) are killed by incidents involving Cows each year. Granted mostly on farms and involving farm workers - though their lives are as important as anybody else's. But members of the Public have also been fatally attacked by Cows; presumably trampled or charged. These are large and potentially very dangerous animals. Their placid reputation and rose-tinted image as gormless, harmless farm animals is comforting for kids, but not aligned with reality. The Police have a duty to protect the Public. If this stray Cow had trampled some kids in the street, who would be getting brickbats for not looking out for them? The Police. So get off their backs James Cleverly. Former publishing manager and private schoolboy from Lewisham. Neither of us knows anything about farming and precious little about the pressures Police are under every day.
A sensible comment from someone who knows a lot about farming and keeping cattle…. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg33v21weg3o
