That's nice of you, maybe he was too busy worrying about saving lives to find his balaclava.

I wonder if you'd be so flippant if it was your family that was at risk.

I am sure he had time if he had wanted, to hide his face. A balaclava  can be worn like a hat and pulled down, nothing  flippant about it.

Police by consent in the uk

Yeah i seen that in Brixton. So no other police force's in Europe can police by consent because they are armed.   :hmm:Are you saying  policing by consent can not happen if the police are armed.  ?

It can, but I very much doubt he walks around all day with that on his head.

Most people in main land UK don't want to see police routinely armed, although we are starting to see that opinion shift towards armed officers. But until the majority of people want to see it, it won't happen, because like I said, it is enshrined in UK policing that they police by consent.

Just had a quick google.

If that's the case then it's only the law abiding that agree, people smashing up police cars, throwing things at police horses, going out and stabbing people don't respect anything or anyone.

It of course means the majority of the public, not on an individual basis.

Yes I realise that,  the problem is it's not the majority causing the problems.

I see what your saying, the police have the law on their side to deal with it, however, despite my opinion that the general public want to see it dealt with, I believe the police are hamstrung by the deep state, especially the media who would have a field day with scenes of the riot squad smashing protesters up.

Do the police in Australia and Canada not police by consent, and they are armed.  There are no practical or consent reasons for the police not to be armed just political.

The Peelian principles summarise the ideas that Sir Robert Peel developed to define an ethical police force. The approach expressed in these principles is commonly known as policing by consent in the United Kingdom and other countries such as Canada, Australia.

I know very little about Australian or Canadian police, I do know however that the majority of the public in the mainland UK don't want to see routinely armed cops, which is a large part of the reason they're not.

From a Sky News report.

The asylum seeker, who came to the United Kingdom six months ago, had been complaining about living conditions in the hotel and was having particular difficulty with noise.

I guess the promised land of milk and honey didn't live up to expectations. 

Hello, it was also mentioned that staff and other asylum seekers in the hotel were warned on his mental health, also could not believe the money given to the company that look after these people on a ten year contract, ! ! !

All police powers are imposed not consented by the public, policing by consent sounds good but its meaningless in reality.

That's a good point about his face, I don't want to critique any of the police,  I was just surprised he and others didn't have on something saying POLICE, bad times when this is happening more and more often.

I somehow think that IF you had been inside that building, you would not have cared if the Officer turned up stark naked as long as he dealt with the situation. As Ginger cat says, and like him, I have been there and done that, very often you had to wear civilian clothing but wore an armband with POLICE on it...................IF you remembered  !

It wouldn't have mattered to me if he was dressed as Mr Blobby, I just thought it was odd not having something identifying him as police.

So police powers are not imposed by the government / parliament. 

Yes, however, as a police officer, the law allows them all to be armed, they're not routinely armed not due to an act of parliament, but largely due to public consent and probably most chief constables view that they do not believe it necessary, they're not.

Yes, they might think differently if they were on the front line.

The senior Scotland Yard officer who locked himself in his car during the Westminster terror attack is due to retire within weeks, as pressure mounts on the police watchdog to investigate his conduct.

Not so long ago there were 2 white British males both recently released from prison for killing pensioners. Together they abducted a young woman, tortured her then finally put her into her car before pouring petrol on her and setting her on fire.

It just goes to show you don't need to be an immigrant to commit terrible crimes, but it does show that you do need to be an immigrant for the public to be outraged.
