    I think as long as medical staff are refused access to the prisoner, all medical professionals should refuse to help any cop in medical need. I wonder how long they will refuse staff then?

      Eh, get rid of monarchy at all.

      But, that’s off topic. We all need to fix our governments and make them work for the people, not for the criminals.

        Yeah good fucking luck with accomplishing that after a single protest of police brutality.

        Maybe something a little more achievable like holding these law enforcement accountable and reducing Uk involvement in the genocide.

          Police are largely held accountable by IOPC.

          No, that has nothing to do with protests. There’s simply no room for inherited status or power. Away with it.

            Well maybe go start your own post and comment chain because mines about the protests.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
