They do the bidding of their masters - yep, sure Police protect property, not people - so true /s The police are there to enforce the law. Are all police officers perfect, no. Is anyone perfect, no. My point being, you should want the police to follow the law and enforce it. From the article, they were enforcing a law around the Public Order Act. So doesn’t the problem really exist with those who make the law, not those who enforce it? (Ok, I’ll get off my high horse now)
