The brit police can afford to prosecute those who “insult” islam. Conclusion: they don’t WANT to help normal people.
You got that right. One of the things that was stolen from her house were a few books of checks. The thief actually tried to use one of her checks to pay his utility bills. No, I'm not kidding. The bank told her to contact the police, which she did, but the police told her that it was up to the bank to initiate the investigation. Either way, she had already closed the account as soon as the checks were stolen, so she wasn't out any money. But it seemed like NOBODY was interested in actually arresting the person who robbed her home. BTW, the guy who did it was on bail for being arrested while on parole for attempted murder.
Quite a "justice system" we've got, huh?
Anyone who believes that the police are supposed to "protect and serve" are living in some alternate universe. They're supposed to try to figure out what happened after the fact, and maybe clean up the debris and blood.

What’s the fuss?
Great Britain’s got it coming - in spades!

Great Britain’s got it coming - in spades!
I'd like to request clarification on your post if I may....would you be suggesting that the honorable, decent and hardworking majority of people in Great Britain, who have stood by us, bled with us and died with us in multiple world wars and conflicts and who have been among our closest and most stalwart allies somehow "deserve" the sort of treatment that Mr. Pither has been subjected to?
If so, why?
Yes we do have some radicals but we also have many places where there are just decent ordinary indigenous British people.
May I also suggest that this article may well have more behind than meets the eye. At present there a big dispute between the government and police-force over pay may I suggest that the comment made by the police may well have been sour grapes and they knew who they were talking to and just wanted to cause a stir and expose a penny pinching government who want justification to a ridiculous extent by the police in how they spend their budget.
Sadly true, and an unfortunate sign of ignorance. It's one thing to bash Socialism and the cancers that it produces but it's another thing entirely to bash the people who are being unfairly subjected to it and whose lives are being harmed by it..
Yes we do have some radicals
So do we, unfortunately
the comment made by the police may well have been sour grapes and they knew who they were talking to and just wanted to cause a stir and expose a penny pinching government who want justification to a ridiculous extent by the police in how they spend their budget.
An interesting and highly probable theory.
Stoat,
The UK has changed the focus from blaming the criminal to blaming the object. And they’ve carried this to an extreme that insults the dignity of humanity - got it? A man who stabs someone to death is sentenced to 5 - 12 years in prison and is released for good behavior in 4 years. A man who carries a knife is sentenced to five years in prison. Whoa? What’s wrong with that picture?
There’s a five year prison sentence to any British woman carrying pepper spray. Dude, you not understanding things?
When Tony Martin used a shotgun to protect his home against burglars, he was sentenced to life in prison for murder and the authorities were babbling on about how burglars have rights too and that’s how some people make their living.
Oh yeah, one of the burglars in the Martin burglary case had 200 arrests to his record. How? Easy. The authorities view the first dozen or so burglaries as kids having fun.
As for the wars, WWI prepared the way for Hitler. WWII made Europe safe for Stalin. No gain in either war - they were just a bloodbath.
England refuses to remain England. Stop living in the past, London will soon be Londonistan and there isn’t a thing we can do about it.
Oh yeah, did I tell you self-defense is illegal in England? What? You didn’t know that?
England has it coming.
