Police:
We need more surveillance so we can better protect you!
Also Police:
> A monitoring group repeatedly warned the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) over the past eight months that anti-immigration activists were circulating the addresses of properties that were targeted in this week’s Belfast riots.
> Anti-racist campaigners have spoken of their anger and frustration that months of warnings were not acted on

@rysiek
That is very appropriate once one understands that the definition of “you” changes between those cases.

@rysiek Expecting the establishment peddling racist rhetoric to respond to this stuff in a meaningful way when this is what they want is why we need to actually combat this stuff without any government backing. The future is sadly in our own hands now and no one from inside the establishment is coming to help.

You didn't really think protect "you" meant the poor and working class, did you?
Tks, tsk.

@MikeFromLFE @Orca it has everything to do with the Police misusing or abusing surveillance.
I'm sorry if my toot was unclear and made you think that I imply that surveillance abuse/misuse by Police is limited only to the UK Police. It might surprise you to learn it is not.
