1/8 I find all of this staggering, @DurhamPCC seem to have covered for #Labour and @Keir_Starmer using lack of evidence as the excuse.

There is a video of the incident FFS.

But ok, this may not have been known at the initial clearing...

2/8 ...#KeirStarmer used the whitewash clearing of him by @DurhamPCC as a declaration of his innocence and seems to be suggesting he was cleared of wrongdoing on the facts, but this is not true, not in the slightest.

This is an egregious error by Starmer...
3/8 What @DurhamPCC said "we did not believe an offense has been 'established' in relation to the legislation and guidance in place at the time the footage was taken", so on the weight of the video alone, the alleged offense was not established, and here is where it unravels...

This my take on the debacle over Sue Gray's report and the Metropolitan Police. I believe it all changed when Downing Street police officers spoke to Sue Gray. That this put the Met in legal peril. The crucial bit is knowledge of the facts. #whitewash

I suspect most official cover-ups operate around turning a blind-eye principle, and making yourself wilfully blind to the facts. That this is why the police had been so reluctant to not investigate the party scandal, Prince Andrew etc, for FEAR of what they might find.
2/
As long as the police etc, can convincingly deny all knowledge of a crime i.e. through plausible deniability, they can refuse to investigate it. So the Met could refuse to investigate partygate, right up until there was clear evidence.

Commission on Race & Ethnic disparities says racism exists but is mainly confined to the online world

It may have been overlooked that this online abuse is delivered by Real Racists in Real racist institutions & Real racist neighbourhoods

Oh, racial attacks are pretty real too
Quickly conversation on racism pivots to terrible way “white working class” are treated
Fix Classism” too

But don’t you dare say our experience of structural & institutional racism is a myth

I’m tired of being told I’m a role model
That’s because you won’t give others a chance

Boris Johnson's fake race commission report is a #whitewash & an insult to UK ethnic minorities.

Despite overwhelming evidence, it DENIES institutional racism, & borrowing from the the National Front, has the gall to focus on the "white working class".

From #Windrush & #Grenfell to the disproportionate amount of deaths in childbirth, from stop & search to #COVID-related deaths - evidence of institutional & structural racism is CRYSTAL CLEAR.

What a nasty, grotesque & disturbing insult to millions of decent British people.
Foregrounding "white working class" educational attainment is pure gaslighting: in 2019 the least educational progress was made by Irish Traveller & Gypsy/Roma Heritage kids, technically "white working class" - but what a grotesque & contemptuous ideological distortion of truth.

@AsimCP @azadaliCCM @Moazzam_Begg @ukhomeoffice @NatCoordPrevent It's unbelievable for a government to re-appoint the same reviewer (Lord Carlile) who approved the current PREVENT strategy and has close ties with intelligence and security establishment to then claim that the role is even remotely independent.
