In an unexpected development, two men seen in CCTV footage attacking police officers at Manchester airport in July have been charged by the CPS and the police officers involved have all been cleared. The Mail has the story.
Two brothers have been charged with assault following a brawl at Manchester Airport which sparked anti-police protests over the summer after partial footage was widely shared on social media.
The furore erupted in July after videos of the incident shared online showed an officer kicking 20-year-old Mohammed Amaaz during an attempted arrest of him and his 25-year-old brother Muhammed Amaad.
Tensions were raised further when their lawyer Akhmed Yakoob claimed the fracas had been an “attempted assassination”, triggering anti-police protests in the brothers’ home town of Rochdale.
But dramatic CCTV footage then revealed the three police officers had been attacked, leaving a WPC with a broken nose and another officer slumped on the floor.
Last month, with the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) apparently no closer to announcing charges against the brothers, Nigel Farage hired two solicitors to bring a case against them.
He contrasted prosecutors’ slow progress with bringing charges against the pair with the ultra-fast prosecution of far-Right [sic] figures “who said unpleasant things on social media” and suggested this was evidence of a “two-tier” justice system.
But now the CPS has said the two men have been charged with assaults on police officers on July 23rd and that none of the police officers will face charges.
Mohammed Amaaz is charged with two offences of causing actual bodily harm, one charge of assaulting an emergency worker and one charge of common assault, while Muhammed Amaad, 25, is charged with causing actual bodily harm.
Today, Mr. Farage’s Reform U.K. party said the charging of two men after a disturbance at Manchester Airport was “long overdue” and claimed its legal threat had prompted prosecutors to act.
Mr. Farage and his deputy Richard Tice said in a statement today: “It’s obvious the CPS has only charged the attackers today because of the pressure applied by Reform U.K. MPs.”
They added they expect a parallel investigation by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) to “exonerate” the police officers, adding that “Nothing less will be acceptable”.
The IOPC said its investigation into the use of force by police on six people was nearing completion.
Worth reading in full.
Only took five months.
Yet in September we learned that “a criminal investigation has been launched into who gave Manchester Airport CCTV footage to the Manchester Evening News following the police ‘stamp’ incident”.

I’ve just got banned from the Telegraph comments for pointing out their disgraceful science reporting and pointing to articles like this one. They simply cannot allow the truth.
Keep it up Igor.
In truth I’m quite pleased in a way, because continuing to pay them money (albeit at a reduced rate due to previous threats to leave on my part anyway) has been running counter to my principles. I’ve unsubscribed of course.
I was banned on a number of occasions at the DT but they relented when I appealled to the moderators. They eventually brought in a one strike and you’re out policy which has prevented me from commenting since, they must run checks on IP addresses as I opened a new account using a different email address but was banned within a week for something innocuous.
If you want a Qatari model of free speech, look no further than the DT BTL comments policy.
The Guardian and the BBC are even worse than the DT.
I was banned for commenting “below the line” years and years ago.

Why?
I have very successfully defeated BBC HYS moderating censors multiple times by targeting certain subjects in a particular way – proved their bias which they have tacitly acknowledged time after time. Like many here, I consider these MSM organs are self evidently very corrupt, lying woke far left WEF acolytes and my experiences don’t move that dial one millimetre .
I paid £24 for my DT subscription this year. I let my old subscription lapse when they wanted to make it over £100 pa and after about 6 weeks they discounted by over 75%. I keep it going so I can comment BtL and – hopefully – influence others and point them towards sources of information.
I tread a fine line; they’ve not banned me yet.
They banned me for railing against Bill Gates giving them a few million quid during Covid. It is a badge of honour to banned by this rag.
We all seem to be operating in an echo chamber.
We all know what is causing the excess deaths.
It is not until the general public and the main stream media start to wake up to reality that anything will be done.
We are making very slow progress on that front.
Excellent interview in TCW today with Andrew Bridgen, entitled: “The Vaccine Cover Up is Rapidly Unravelling.” It opens “The elephant in the room of excess deaths is trumpeting louder and is stepping on the toes of Big Pharma in Parliament.”
Unfortunately when Andrew stands up in Parliament to make a valuable speech all the other MPs walk out.
This is the level of wilful ignorance we are dealing with.
Great work Mr Chudov
Now I remember why I prefer SQL
Although I do agree with your hypothesis, I have one, simple point to make… I think the official vaccination rates are total BS. In many European countries, individuals are all too used to beating the system and cutting each other private deals and arrangements. I suspect a statistically significant number of jabs went down the sink. And we’ll never, ever know how many. There just isn’t the data.
It’s things like this which remind me of the main message in Friedrich Duerrenmatt’s Das Verpsrechen – some things will never be solved, however much you want and need to solve them, and regardless of how much effort you put into solving them…
But the bastards need hanging for everything they did which we know for sure they did, nevertheless.
Yes, I noticed that former Communist countries had low or negative excess mortality (fewer deaths than expected in plain English!). I would agree that their lower jab rate is due to a history of “beating the system” and overall suspicion of authority and is probably even lower. Sweden’s negative excess mortality rate suggests that a combination of lockdowns and jab adverse effects has caused the excess mortality we’ve seen. In countries with both lockdowns and high high jab rates we see higher excess mortality. Simplistic using one country’s example I know.
They really sucked up the ‘get jabbed to save granny’. in Portugal. 95% jabbed!
Salazar managed to create what is in my honest opinion a very childlike and impressionable population.

ScepticsRealists.That’s all great, and I for one believe firmly that correlation does equal causation in this case.
Trouble is, even though he’s probably right on the money on this one, you can’t really present a non-scientist’s evaluation of re-hashed statistics as evidence for the danger of mRNA vaccines.
If a covid vaccine zealot asks me where I got this info, and I go “Igor Chudov’s Substack page”, they’ll say “Well why then were the NHS recommending them to everyone”? The answer to this, of course, is a long story involving the relationship between regulators, Big Pharma and the health services, with no independent assessment of efficacy and safety of vaccines.
But it’s at this point in the the discussion you might as well be conversing with a peanut.
Has anyone any information about how long after vaccination the adverse effects west off, if at all.
We continue to focus on excess deaths, however it would be good to not loose sight of other side-effects.
How many have had their health altered by mRNA products?
Probably an impossible question to answer, but analysis of NHS data or private insurance data may give us some clues?
The best way would be to be tested for spike protein markers, both viral and mRNA induced, Troponin, D Dimer and Ig3/4 levels. Snag is the NHS GPs will not routinely do this – how ironic that this medical “cohort” banged the gong for PCR whilst some banged the pans but they refuse en bloc to pull back the curtain to reveal, at least in part, their collective complicity. I bet their PI insurers have said to these Medics to the effect: “Don’t do these tests as it might invite claims against you – if you do you are no longer covered”
