What a fucking disgrace they are! Yet they arrest people for "offence" caused.
https://archive.ph/KKC02The Met initially told The Telegraph it would take no further action over the signs, saying that although it had received complaints about some placards, “to date the images and signs are from historic events, did not take place in London, or do not constitute a criminal offence”. However, the force changed its position after being presented with evidence from this newspaper that threatening signs had been displayed in central London on Saturday.
Sarah Vine KC told The Telegraph that the hangman placards “clearly cross the line of criminality” and suggested that police would have “no difficulty in making a decision to charge the responsible person” if the situation were reversed. She said: “Any reasonable person looking at the message “The only good terf is a ---- terf” would be likely to believe that immediate violence would be used against anyone perceived as a ‘terf’.” The barrister added: “If the word ‘terf’ were to be replaced by any equivalent word – ‘trans woman’, ‘Muslim’, ‘Tory’, ‘immigrant’ – I would expect the police to have no difficulty in making a decision to charge the responsible person.”
“In what circumstances is this acceptable? When the women in question say No to men? When they advocate for their own rights? “Women have serious doubts about whether the police really care about their rights, after successive abuse scandals and after the terrible policing of many women’s rallies in recent years.
