I do not like the @metpoliceuk and this is why. They almost killed my 62 year old brother by tasering him whilst he was atop the stairs. He wasn't attacking them, he had committed no crime. He just moved whilst 'being Black' in his own home. For that reason they did this...

The use of tasers is meant to be for the protection of officers. My 62 yr old brother was NO THREAT to anyone. The fact that you tasered him, atop a flight of stairs means that you could have caused him serious life threatening damage JUST LIKE YOU DID TO THE 24 year old 1/2

As one of the first people to expose & challenge the legitimacy of the @metpoliceuk racist database I’m pleased they’ve finally been forced to scrap its use. But their policy not to inform or apologise to those who were wrongly included on the #Matrix is inherently racist itself

@StaffordScott_ As said, what matters most is delivering against the Casey recommendations, including the institutional finding. Action speaks louder than a word! 25 years after Macpherson's undelivered recommendations, action is overdue. As for Bernie, I am confident that he knows I am trying.

I am not hitting out against this programme called #SorryIDidntKnow without reason. I spent #BHM2023 @BSixCollege in Hackney with young people who knew nothing about #BlackBritishHistory yet were enthralled and eager to learn. We have endured too much to ever trivialise our past

Thats the point. If it didn't happen post Macpherson when @metpoliceuk were forced to accept #InstitutionalRacism it wont happen when it is not accepted. Denial is part of the process of #InstitutionalRacism - your denial is in line with the discredited #SewellReport foolishness

@kimberleyVERU @StaffordScott_ The findings are clear, as below. I have consistently said that I want to see the Casey recommendations addressed and fully implemented, which did not happen with Macpherson. I am less bothered about the word and much more into delivering equitable outcomes. Findings are clear!

The @metpoliceuk murdered members of our community and when we sought to hold them to account they infiltrated our organisations and tried to sabotage our relationships and activities. But we still won! #TottenhamThreeAreFree

in 2019 @ICOnews found the @metpoliceuk guilty of breaking the #HumanRights of the vast majority of young black people whose name appeared in the racist database #GangMatrix They put them under special measures in 2019 - the @EHRC chose to ignore this fact! They're racist too >>>
