Pc Andrew Harper Murder. More Arrests...

[Mozz71]

I heard this in the news earlier, and expected to find a discussion thread here, as I remember being a great deal of interest at the tine of his death.

I can't help but wonder what number that thread would be at now if the scum arrested had been of a different colour?

Good news, if there can be anything good about such a case.

Well our esteemed Mayor ,Mr Sadiq Khan, is demanding a public enquiry over what appears to be an Industrial accident on a Underground Travelator whereby one person,sadly, died early this morning.
Meanwhile two people on his patch were shot in North London. One with life threatening injuries. I can guess the ethnicity of the shooters as I know Wood Green well.
Not a squeak from Mr Khan. Just shows that colour does matter or not.

I haven't seen a picture of the 'scum'

//I haven't seen a picture of the 'scum'//

In fairness, I haven't either, but Henry Long and Thomas King don't sound the most ethnic of names to me.

I didn't pick up on that last sentence when I went to look for the link to further arrests.

I have no idea why it's there.

A murderer (if that is what they are judged to, is a murderer).

[retrocop]

I am guessing 'the scum' are of the traveller persusion judging by initial arrests by TVP.

[Mamyalynne]

^ judged to be...

[retrocop]

Yes. That is what I said.

[ummmm]

Well not all of them do. I know plenty who haven't got foreign sounding names.

[Mamyalynne]

I was correcting my omission

[Spicerack]

Oh dear, mozz. Deary, deary me.

One of our protectors is dead, nothing but nothing available to the courts can make up for that.

Our heroes will want for nothing in this saga and be out (should they be convicted) stripping cable from the railways before too many summers pass. It's what they do.

What colour are they?

[davebro]

Scum - there should be a national police task force to clear out these rats' nests instead of treating them as no-go areas.
