This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Sorry Herbert VC was special.

It was only a couple of weeks ago that they were saying the public SHOULD get involved when you see such an incident, maybe they forgot to add, "unless you are unarmed and not fully kitted out"! He obviously didn"t go to the same training college as Dixon of dock green!

I wager that the top brass in the Police are chosen more for their political malleability than they are for personal bravery. In olden days we had white feathers.

As an afterthought - why not get your driver to drive straight at the killer and take him out that way?

I did think that too....but if he was in the process of knifing this guy you'd perhaps get both instead of the maggot. He probably had to get out....but he was found wanting. Perhaps when he was younger at would have been different but we don't need careerists when the s***e hits the fan. Edited by Stirlingsays (09 Oct 2018 8.32am)

i do wonder though he was the mets chief at the time perhaps his driver did what he was taught to do and stopped his boss getting involved as they didnt know if there were more attackers and perhaps whatever his name might have been the target..hindsight is a wonderful skill

Appalling leadership - and Knighted afterwards, should have been on a charge.
