Special Episode of the Sceptic: This Week, Our Guest Reveals Why He’s Suing the Met for False Imprisonment After a Peaceful Protest in the Wake of the Southport Attack

by Richard Eldred
3 January 2025 7:00 AM

Welcome to this Special Episode of the Sceptic.

Two-tier policing. Two-tier justice. Two-tier Keir. Well, we’ve spoken about all of those things on the Sceptic, especially how they’ve been in evidence in the Government response to the disorder up and down the country after the Southport murders. Much of this was in towns in the Midlands and the North, but it was in London, outside Downing Street, just two days after the attack, that my next guest was part of a peaceful protest against knife crime – when he, along with dozens of others, was arrested, placed in a prison cell and held for nearly 24 hours. Never charged – for there was nothing to charge him with – he’s now suing the Metropolitan Police for false imprisonment and assault.

There is so, so much to be concerned about here. Riot police bussed in from other areas – who ordered that and why? What information or directives were they given and by whom? The policeman recorded as saying “arrest anyone” – well, was he acting under orders (if so, from whom?) or is he a renegade clearly unfit to be a police officer? I think there clearly needs to be a full public enquiry here – and senior police and politicians brought to account if they sought to pre-influence or prejudice what happened here.

But it’s not going to happen. If the government can’t be bothered to investigate why hundreds of children were repeatedly raped and abused by “men of a certain religion” while police, teachers and social workers stood by and did nothing then what hope has the average white person?

What sort of a hell-hole of a country have we suddenly decended into while the Prime Minister is more concerned about who pays for his suits, how he can get free tickets to Taylor Swift concerts and how he can jump the queue at tourist events? Have we truly become North Korea? That is a rhetorical question – we have.

There is no hope. Get out now while you can.

My sincere apologies to these “men of a certain religion” who were clearly “engaged in a bit of innocent fun” if I inadvertently misgendered them. I was taught at school that only men had beards, but clearly I was misinformed and am stupid as everybody know that a man with a beard may choose to self identify as a woman or any of another 100 or so genders at a time of their choosing. Anyone who disagrees is a far-right extremist.

I just don’t want to be thrown in the gulag for such a heinous crime as this.

But then again, we don’t need to be thrown in the gulag as the gulag is coming to us.

Join the FSU. As you haven’t mentioned the religion, but presumably not Christianity, they would have a definition problem if they came after you. It has recently been revealed that a large number of “allegedly Christian Priests” are also involved in such goings on. These have NOT been ignored, all very strange.

Another excellent edition. The treachery that affects many of our institutions is a malignancy that is proving, and will prove to be, very difficult to excise. Thank god for people like your guest, who have the wherewithal to challenge this iniquity.

The rest of us must support such people. We must also support those institutions, and media outlets, who on a daily basis, refuse to accept what is happening to this country.

There should be no conditions on peaceful protest.

I attended the farmers protest and noted the ridiculous number of vans full of police. There was noi need for them at all and they must have ben paid overtime for sleeping. Farmers, rural people and sympathisers cannot be put into any demographic associated with rioting or violence.

It was nothing more than state intimidation.

I hope he wins his damages claim. Remember to add the value of lost time and lost opportunities. Demand to see the evidence the officers relied upon when arresting and when threatening to charge with a further offence.

If he needs help with legal fees please start a fund raiser.

Sue the Independent as well as their report was insulting and offensive and likely libellous.

Go against the individual officers as well as the force itself.

The husband should make a complaint of GBH – actual bodily harm.

Even if the arresting officers had been wrongly informed about the circumstances they were not entitled to arrest without making enquiries. One question to this mn would have made it clear the warnings and rules had not been comunicated.

I really do notthink living and working in harmony is compatible with multi-culturalism which the elites still embrace.

The unity seen in the USA cannot happen here because the elites and all their many agents regard diversity (which is a lack of harmony by definition) as a good thing, almost an essential aspect of Britain in the future.

On sentencing, I note that a Pakistani Muslim rapist of multiple offences was released after two and a half years whereas social media posts resulted in a similar sentence. Two tier or what!

And the rapist then costtax payers £lots appealing against deportation and he is still here.
