  • How badly policing has deteriorated in this country.

    Some aggressive asshat was disrupting traffic and loudly threatening to rape a woman then a man in Herne Hill, and after 10 minutes the cops were still no shows. Motherfucker walked away with a bike (his or someone else’s) leaving people shaking and in tears, no consequences.

    Even if the cops had bothered or had been available to respond to the incident, which could have easily turned violent, the likelihood of that sick fuck getting any impactful consequences is pretty much nil.

  • Chronic underfunding of mental health, social services, the NHS and the police.

    Ripe for privatisation as 'we' don't like paying tax.

  • For 2023/24 "In the UK, the total amount of public spending on the police service is £27.3 billion, the highest amount ever spent. "

    It's not underfunding, it's the fact that the police aren't and never have been designed to actually keep people safe.
