Hey @sonjajessup, @silkiecarlo
Do you think it was it good faith and fair reporting to run this story without mentioning the man Shaun Thompson was mistaken for... was Shaun Thompson's brother?

Don't you think this sentence should read
"One officer used a handheld device to compare my features to those in a photo [which was of my brother]. I assured them that I was not the person they were looking for [because I knew it was my brother]"

@sonjajessup @silkiecarlo @Independent @charleshymas @JWhittingdale - do you think you were misleading parliament when you suggested it was racial bias, rather than a family resemblance, that caused the mix up?
@sonjajessup @silkiecarlo @Independent @charleshymas @JWhittingdale This is the funniest possible ending to this story
