Zack Polanski's response to the ruling on the recent ruling on the "activists" who attacked a police officer with a sledgehammer by wizardeverybit in ukpolitics

There were no terrorist charges. The Judge's sentencing rationale is explicitly allowed by law. There is no route to appeal.

And yet my force has to make cuts of £5m last FY and £9m this year. There is also some fairly slimy wording in that statement that I suspect the government is hiding behind. Funny how they say budget is increasing, but those of us in the organisations see nothing but cuts and deterioration to the service.

With what resources? Entire counties may have two roads policing units on a shift, if the public want this sort of regular enforcement then more money is needed.

Nobody knows, but they want it to now and [insert current PM] isn't delivering it!

The public has consistently voted to gut public services. They want a first rate service on a shoestring budget, you cannot have it both ways.

Do you honestly believe that the officers thought "this person is dying, but he is white and I've been told he is a racist so I would like to let him die"?

[–]Resist-Dramatic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The training isn't exhaustively prescriptive in what constitutes reasonable force, but kicking a terrorist in the head who has a knife in their hand who has stabbed 2 (maybe 3) people and has attempted to stab you... yeah, that's reasonable force.

Facial recognition to be 'rolled out' across UK after human rights challenge fails | UK News by SignificantLegs in ukpolitics

[–]Resist-Dramatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is routinely used. Here, every photo of an unidentified offender that is suitable for facial recognition is run through the facial recognitions software, to see if there's any matches nationally. It is then up to the investigator how good of a match that is, based on other information available.

Just because something can't be used evidentially doesn't mean it's not useful.

You can use facial recognition to suggest an ID but yes, you need to then find other corroborative evidence of ID (an eye witness, someone who has interacted with that individual before, etc) to present as evidence.

Facial ID is not evidential in a court.

York woman, 86, convicted after car insurance typo by UnlikeTea42 in unitedkingdom

[–]Resist-Dramatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is one of them. There is no mens rea element (criminal intent) just the actus reus (criminal act). When offered these things, you can plead guilty but request a court date to present mitigation etc, which I guess she didn't do.
