Another thread closed because people can’t debate respecting others views and act like adults
They are emotive subjects at time but you hope that the bigger picture could be looked at but no wonder the mods get frustrated- numerous warnings ignored and what could have been an eye opening discussion goes
And yes ironic considering my past on here

Think you will find it was banned, not cancelled, by the courts not the police. Maybe if you got the facts correct you might be able to put forward a more balanced argument, not just an anti police bias

I believe the courts refused to rule either way, as it was not in their jurisdiction to ban or allow the event. They directed the police and the organisers to negotiate a solution, which neither party successfully did.

Talksport again. Really not sure how the jolly boys outing thinly veiled as outside broadcasting is getting past covid regulations. Amazing how people are happy to broadcast from home for the rest of the year but suddenly have to all be on site when there is away week for Cheltenham.

I don't know the reasoning that has been given by Police Scotland - but I am sure that one consideration would simply have been around the risk of violence were the police to break up the gathering fans before they started off towards Glasgow City Centre. Perhaps a level of pragmatism not shown by the Met - though of course many critics of what happened with the Rangers supporters will tell us that Police Scotland were bullied and/or intimidated by Rangers supporters...maybe - maybe not. Anyway - it seems like in future that a march/demo/protest/vigil could be banned if some feel it would be inconvenient/annoying/disturbing/loud/irritating...I dunno. Maybe that won't come about as currently proposed. Can't express an opinion on it one way or the other as that would fall the wrong side of the pence (the p-fence)

Haringey Council have decided to rename Black Boy Lane to La Rose Lane after local poet John La Rose. My irritation isn't that they are renaming the road but that they have said that it will cost £186000 to rename it which includes a £50k salary for a "support and administration officer to help the residents affected". £186k just to change a road name.

An account from a policewoman on duty there
It’s from social media so always the chance it’s false but from the videos I have seen there is a good chance it’s now
Tonight’s Virgil for Sarah. A female officers point of view..
It started with mainly only female officers overlooking a civil vigil. When numbers grew and social distancing seized more officers were called.
When police officers tried to crowd control and remove people from stamping on flowers for Sarah they refused. Then it kicked off
Then I saw people being arrested and my colleagues being assaulted when trying to transport said prisoner.
Then I saw our vehicles being vandalised with spray with the word ACAB and a mirror being smashed.
Then I thought what would Sarah’s family think about this?
Then I saw and heard my colleagues being abused. They were called murderes, rapists, a female colleague was told it should have been her. And we were told to arrest each other. This is not ok.
Sarah’s family and friends have been so gracious under the circumstances. I do not believe they would want this to happen. If it was me I would not want this to happen. Stop think and be civil we are all humans and we all are angry at what happened. We do not need more violence.
I am a woman. I am a police officer. I am very proud of being both. This week has me exhausted. Physically from the job and mentally by all this.
We are not at fault for what happened because if we knew we would have done what we could to stop it.
To finalise this rant, to my colleagues: I am proud of you. You were insulted beyond what we are used to. We stand by our uniform, we’re proud to carry this warrant card so we can uphold the great office of Constable. Thank you for being there today hope you are all ok

The head of the weekend's favourite protest group announcing they don't want the head of the Met Police to resign because she's a woman.
I mean, the sheer irony of the sexism involved is breath-taking.

For the same reason ,I am not going to comment on the politics of the forthcoming legislation involving "bans".
Whatever it is or becomes may , to my mind and apprehension,well be nothing more than a "poisoned chalice" to the Police.
Because, from what I have seen, a ban is not going to stop people who think their "cause" is great enough to ignore the ban.
They now know that if enough of them turn up, the Police will be in a lose/lose situation. The police will be at fault , not them.

Driving instructors should teach how to negotiate round a bouts correctly. The amount of times I see cars giving way to the left is ridiculous.

E-mails requesting feedback on a service or product. I've had enough of them!!!
"We delivered a parcel, how was the service"
"You ordered a paint brush from us, how did you find it?"
"You took a dump in our toilets, was it clean enough?"
They can all just sod off.... yes this one has really wound me up over the last few days with multiple purchases and deliveries.

Worst part is that if you do a review, if it is not a glowing 5 star one, they do not publish it. Had that on a couple of items recently when I gave 3 star reviews for items that I felt did not quite fit the bill of what they were advertised to be.
