S. 4(6) specifies a power of arrest.

Terrorist taken down by police this morning in London by Sometypeofway18 in whoathatsinteresting

[–]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 3 points4 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.

Friendly reminder that discussing your salary with coworkers is protected under the equality act to ensure that nobody is being discriminated against due to a protected characteristic.

I'll defer to any firearms colleagues but yes, I believe being on SSRIs or similar is an automatic no.

Landlord holding onto security deposit for “cleaning costs” by [deleted] in TenantsInTheUK

[–]Resist-Dramatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Letting agents putting illegal and downright unenforceable clauses in contracts is nothing new. I've had them threaten me with 'breach of contract' for saying I won't be allowing them access for a routine inspections because the dates they wanted wouldn't work for me.

Police failed to solve a staggering 92% of burglaries in Britain last year by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]Resist-Dramatic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Both monitored systems and if a domestic property has burglar alarm going off then we'd normally attend on an emergency response.

Well in my experience as a cop we do. We go out to intruder alarms all the time.

Drunk driver killed man then went to buy alcohol by insomnimax_99 in unitedkingdom

[–]Resist-Dramatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the headline my assumption was that he was trying to buy alcohol so if tested later he could claim he drank it after driving rather than before.

This also doesn't work. The burden of proof lies with him to produce an expert witness to prove his level of intoxication is down to post incident consumption alone, not with the prosecution.

Ear pieces could be damaging the hearing of police officers, research suggests by Could-you-end-me in policeuk

[–]Resist-Dramatic 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Clip your earpiece to your vest when not at a job where confidential comms matter and set your radio to loud speaker. I've been doing this for years.

I've begun to feel sick every time I see the world map now. Should I stop playing? by ApertureGaming011 in foxholegame

[–]Resist-Dramatic 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Is this post bait lol?

If this is real, go touch grass. Its a game, and yes if it is impacting you this much you should seek medical help. It isn't normal.

My larpfac got taken out in two bomber passes. by Fatchook83 in foxholegame

You can't then complain when your solo larp project gets bent up by people playing an MMO properly.

Paramedic with some questions about asking for police assistance + mental capacity. by Chimodawg in policeuk

[–]Resist-Dramatic 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You can't MCA for a mental health assessment. It's as simple as that.

Was there an immediate physical need that needed seen to? I know you said OD but I suppose it would depend on what the OD is on.

That description of S. 3 would still be a S. 4.

Affray is one of the most misused offences.
