Re @BBCr4today
Disgraceful.
Here’s our Fred. Back to stand another day, in memory of our most brave.
Fred has been spat at, called a war monger and worst of all at Brent Cross, he was told by security that he wouldn’t be able to come in and stand unless he REMOVED HIS MEDALS AND UNION JACK BADGE.
Where’s the gratitude?? Where’s the respect?? Shameful
Bless you Fred❤️🇬🇧

It's sad to see so many @churchscotland buildings for sale; some would make beautiful homes, but I fear for the others...

The chances of being killed by a landmine delivered by a bear are low, but they are never zero.

Excellent.
@PoppyLegion
Thank you for your service.
This piece of film is simply faultless, no violence and just a stand outside of The Star in Gosport with a brilliant song with fantastic lyrics. ❤️❤️
If any service personnel feel that we don’t care or any family who have lost their loved ones in service then think again, normal people can’t thank you enough.
This doesn't look good, does it @HantsPolice?
Service before self, not vice versa?
Two days after Henry died Hampshire Police secretly recorded Digwa in a police van speaking Punjabi to his brother. Digwa admitted stabbing Henry. Discussed claiming self defence. Made zero mention of racial abuse. Not one word.
Hampshire Police had that tape.
They knew Digwa was lying about the racist attack. They had the evidence. They had his own words and then tried to smear Henry as the aggressor anyway.
Three days after his death their statement read “it was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.” Henry was the unknown man. The boy bleeding out on the street. They flipped it.
Family complained. Statement changed. Then police told the family their NEXT update would again infer Henry was the initial aggressor. His family had to fight them a second time. While grieving their murdered son.
Then during the trial Hampshire tried to issue a statement telling the public to stop talking about it online. Calling it disinformation. The CPS had to step in. Told them they were about to collapse their own murder case.
This is the force that handcuffed a dying boy. Missed the murder weapon twice. Had a secret tape proving the killer lied. And still tried to bury Henry's name.
That's not incompetence. That's a machine protecting itself. At the expense of a dead boy's reputation and three officers are still on active duty. Not suspended. Treated as witnesses. To their own actions.
Hampshire Police didn't just fail Henry on that street. They kept failing him for six months after he died.
Care to comment @EdwardJDavey?
Within 12 months and there will be another Liam Byrne letter from @JohnHealey_MP.
