ER Editor: After the alleged stabbing incident in Southport on July 29 of young children at a dance class, protests have been witnessed in several UK towns and cities, which the media are painting as ‘far right’. Yesterday, Monday August 5, the UK government had an emergency Cobra meeting to tackle the situation. From Google we get this about Cobra —

Cobra – or COBR – meetings are named after Cabinet Office Briefing Room A on Whitehall. It is an emergency response committee – a get together of ministers, civil servants, the police, intelligence officers and other officials appropriate to the situation they are looking into.

The phenomenon of two-tier policing has long been denounced in the UK, as protestors for one event get clearly favorable police treatment compared to protestors at another event. The wokeness of UK police has also been reported on at length over the last couple of years at least.

Immediately following the Cobra meeting, a strange moment takes place outside UK government cabinet offices in full view of the cameras. Most odd for the top cop of the Met Police, Sir Mark Rowley. What gives? We do believe it’s theatre. Was the journalist with the mic told to stand right there? Was this done to change the headlines? Some tweets —

The most senior cop in England, Sir Mark Rowley, shows us he is absolutely not the man for the job when he grabs a reporter’s microphone and drops it to the ground after being asked about ‘two tier policing’.

Wasn’t he at the COBRA meeting to discuss how to deal with violence… pic.twitter.com/ErazK8K5JS

MET Police Commissioner Mark Rowley just snatched this journalists microphone for asking this.

Did Met Police Chief Sir Mark Rowley just break the law in grabbing and dropping a journalist’s microphone as he asked a pretty pertinent question about two tier policing? pic.twitter.com/2VkFpRvUEb

I’ve previously seen and complained to @metpoliceuk about two tier policing in London. Presumably they will investigate this – looks like criminal battery. Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley grabs Sky journalist’s mic and throws it aside https://t.co/PZSCwvi9xP

********

Met Police Boss Sir Mark Rowley Grabs Microphone and Throws it On Ground When Grilled About “Two-Tier Policing”

The Mail has more.

As he exited the Cabinet Office, the visibly angry Scotland Yard chief was filmed being asked by a Sky News journalist: “Are we going to end two-tier policing sir?”

In the astonishing footage, Sir Mark was shown taking part of the microphone before throwing it to the floor as he headed towards a waiting car.

The bizarre incident came amid intense pressure on police chiefs to get a grip on the violent disorder causing chaos on U.K. streets, in the wake of last week’s Southport stabbing attack.

Sir Keir Starmer is also scrambling to put a lid on tensions and end the rioting in the first big test of his premiership since entering Downing Street a month ago.

After chairing an emergency Cobra meeting this morning, the Prime Minister pledged a “standing army” of specialist police officers to tackle what he has condemned as “far-Right thuggery”.

He and other senior ministers met with police chiefs and prison bosses in response to the continuing violence being waged by far-Right thugs. (MSM alert)

They updated on efforts to deploy officers to trouble hotspots, boost court capacity and tackle online criminality and misinformation as social media is used to whip up rioters.

“Two-tier policing” is a phrase used to described an impression that some protests and demonstrations are dealt with more harshly than others.

Reform U.K. leader Nigel Farage earlier claimed the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 had left feelings of “two-tier policing”, although his remarks were dismissed by Tory former Home Secretary Dame Priti Patel.

A narrative of ‘politicised’ or ‘two-tier policing’ has also been pushed by far-Right figures, including England Defence League founder Tommy Robinson.

The PM’s official spokesman said Sir Keir “wouldn’t recognise that characterisation of policing”.

“The job of the police is to keep everyone safe, to tackle violence and disorder no matter the origination,” the spokesman added.

“There is no justification at all for the scenes we have seen. There is no justification for any sorts of criminal activity.

“The police will always will always carry out their job without fear or favour.” (Which is clearly nonsense according to what has been on public view.)

Worth reading in full.

Erm, isn’t grabbing a microphone and throwing it on the floor criminal damage?

You just had to answer the question, Mark. No need to have a temper tantrum.
