I want to see a mugshot of @metpoliceuk officer Wayne Couzens who killed an innocent woman, abused his position as a public servant & failed to uphold his oath. I want to see pictures of this killer in his police uniform & not smiling in pictures like he’s committed a petty crime
This is where you see the blatant agenda & the classic humanisation of white criminals by the establishment & media. For every young black male that has broken the law, been murdered like my mentee Rhyhiem Barton or just a suspect, we get mugshots & pictures that portray evil
I don’t want to hear stories or excuses of mental breakdowns, injuries sustained in custody, loneliness or anything else for this so called officer @MailOnline @SkyNews @BBCNews @Telegraph @Independent where’s your outrage? Where’s the demonisation of this awful human being?
Where’s the condemnation? Where’s the media witch hunt towards a serving police officer? You see... I hate to have to highlight this & showcase the double standards of this countries outlook towards a heinous crime when it’s committed by a white man in the the U.K.
The U.K. Government, the U.K. media & also the @metpoliceuk are normalising this awful murder of a woman by a SERVING police officer. They’re complicit in targeting Black Britons, Muslims & anyone else they can vilify to further their negative narratives. You’ve enabled this man.
Where’s the draconian @pritipatel on this matter? She’s far more concerned about preventing more protests through legislation than finding rogue police criminals who break the law. You can’t pick & choose when to speak up & speak out.
@piersmorgan loves to ask the black community about our accountability when black boys have killed black boys like he did with @UnitedBorders on @GMB Piers can you tell us why white men habitually & historically have killed innocent people, using violence to colonise the world?
Nothing but hypocrisy across the board from all of you. Black murders are less significant than white murders to the status quo, the depth of resources used to try & solve the disappearance of Maddie McCann has cost the U.K. taxpayer more than £12 million.
Rhyhiem Barton’s case has had minimal focus & investment from police since his death on May 5th 2018. This is reflective of many other unsolved murders of people deemed not worthy enough by the police & our Government to seek justice & closure for their families.
Please remember this was a newly recruited officer who patrolled the Parliamentary estate and embassies in London. This is who we trusted to keep society & the so-called elite, safe... we’re expected to trust the @metpoliceuk with officers like this in their ranks.
Cressida Dick must go, the @metpoliceuk has to be held to account for any corruption or crimes they commit just like the rest of us. We’re in very dangerous territory here. It’s time for our communities to demand justice & equality for all. We must act in unison & make a stand.

The community must Police the Police, it’s us that must force them to be accountable.

“The police are the public & the public are the police”

It’s clear that Cressida Dick is part of the problem, a true lack of leadership, constant denial of institutional racism & an enabler
But it’s not just her, there are officers within the Police that have this very same view around institutional racism, casual misconduct without fear of consequence. They’ve been enabled & protected by their Commissioner to have these views whilst serving in the force.
I truly feel for the good officers of the @metpoliceuk because there are a lot of good people carrying out their duties for the correct & moral reasons. It’s embarrassing & disgusting that a serving officer is under investigation for murder. A full revamp of Police is needed.

So this happened to me last week and I debated at length whether or not I share this widely. I spoke with my family extensively, watched the video over and over again and mulled it over for seven days...
What I realised is that I have an obligation as a postive, upstanding black man in my community, to share this and highlight the constant mistreatment, lack of respect and oppression we face at the hands of the @metpoliceuk on a daily basis
Last Monday I was delivering food to friends that have lost loved ones to COVID-19 as a gesture of love and support. On my way to my second drop off I saw two males one black & one white had been stopped by a number of police & being searched, I stopped my car instead of...
