As far as I am aware with the police airwave radios they have gps on them, so they should be able to work out where the vehicle/officers were in relation to the accident location. My Nan grew up in Ely in the 1930's was a total toilet back then apparently, doesnt appear to have got any better. Think of a larger New Addington with lots of social issues. Sometimes I set out for Ludlow Sometimes I end up in Chepstow

I was surprised when a report said the ebike cost 4000 quid. The details of the accident will emerge, the video seems to show two riders on a small bike without helmets Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

The Welsh first minister has accused the UK government of creating the poor social conditions that formed the backdrop to the Cardiff riots by systematically eroding community life, public services and citizens’ incomes. Mark Drakeford, who represents the Ely area where the riots broke out on Monday night after the deaths of two teenage boys, said public services and people’s standards of living had declined there during 13 years of Conservative rule. Not excusing the behaviour, mind.
