A court case against two cycle couriers

I've put it in my diary, might try to get there, but I don't think I could do the whole four days (if they use them all).

Re. the sergeant's "flawed" evidence, as a reasonably law-abiding citizen it was a bit of a shock when I fell afoul of the Met's arcane evidentiary practices many years ago.

Turned up at station as requested for interview, sensibly kept schtum to have my day in court.

Amazingly between times my old school right to silence had been written up by the old bill as "Yes, it was me...I did it".

Luckily enough I had a rake of witnesses so rightfully copped an absolute discharge but it was a real eye-opener to hear 100% fabricated incriminating statements ascribed to me on oath in open court.

And that, best beloved, is how the filth earned their name.

A driver assaulted me on a Saturday afternoon in June- got out of the car, grabbed me, yelled abuse, threatened to kill me. Got 2 witnesses, made a complaint to the police, they charged the driver with common assault, use of threatening words/ behaviour to cause harassement, alarm or distress, and driving without due care and attention. He pleaded not guilty, case goes to trial on the 25th of October.
Hopefully the case will be judged on what happened, rather than the race, class and chosen mode of transport of those involved.

What happened in the end?
