Totally right PadBrat.
I was involved in a mass disturbance (can't call it a riot apparently) at my place of work. One Police Officer turned up, faced with around 20 15/16 year olds he was in serious shit, he called for backup, there was none available, so he had a choice, run or fight.
He just launched into the biggest one and gave him a proper seeing to.
That was enough to frighten off the majority of them and we were able to deal with the rest.
About 10 minutes later the ENTIRE borough's (population 280,000) Police force arrived, all 5 of them.
When I was interviewed later I was asked if he used reasonable force and in that context he did, had there been a video of it though, edited down to 20 seconds of brutality, he would probably have been facing the sack and maybe prison.
All because of cuts, by Tories, the 'Party of Law & Order'
