The St George protests reveal Britain's two-tier policing

The police response to the St George's day celebrations/protests was a stark eye-opener to our two-tier policing. After months of treating anti-Israel protesters with kid gloves while they hurled missiles and fireworks and desecrated war memorials, Sadiq Khan's police force saw some people they could safely batter without being called racist.

Police kettled, cavalry charged and arrested English men. An old lady was shoved to the ground, a pub was raided and a man holding his child was attacked. We hadn't seen scenes like this since lockdown.

I understand the police have to keep the peace which sometimes means they have to remove catalysts instead of enforce the law, and many police will privately be unhappy about their orders. The blame lies with the politicians who guide them.

And it sends a dangerous message that some people are more equal than others and if you have a big enough mob, the police won't touch you.
