Democracy. I also read of one area who mysteriously lost several hundred votes and narrowly elected two Tories.

Latest Met police achievement. A man is leaning over a balcony threatening to jump. Two constables rush up to his flat, taser him and he falls to his death five floors down. Presumably they carried out an arrest at ground level thereafter, to comply with police procedure.

Hmmm…..not exactly but why let the truth get in the way of a sensational story.

It's as I read it in The Times. Feel free to correct or embellish the account. The two coppers are being investigated for manslaughter, but of course, that doesn't mean they'll be charged.

As the Po Po had been at the address for at least an hour trying to talk the bloke down I would suggest that your report that they “rushed up to his flat and tasered him”, is pretty wide of the mark.
But to be fair, you have form for spreading misinformation

I don't care how long they talked to him, these ****s tasered him when he was on the balcony threatening to jump! And now they are being investigated for manslaughter. Of course, you have a familial interest in excusing this, and make no attempt to be impartial, so your view's pretty much worthless.

Well your view is obviously bollox, a lie and misinformation.

As I said....you have form for this kind of thing.
You’re becoming more like Goebbels every day

Please do….we need to call out this rubbish for what it is. It’s the third time now that this poster has posted mistruths and expected people to believe it.
It’s getting too much and needs to be stamped on before it’s late.
It’s like the “Ministry of Truth”……history is being rewritten…if we don’t call it out then it will become the truth.

I’m joking. Obviously I agree with you in general. I’ve not read about this taser thing but will check it out later and decide I oppose Goldie’s point of view probably because it would be more boring if I didn’t.
