As if the execution wasn't bad enough what I objected to was the reporting and in the Guardian of all places.
Gemma Wilson, a Conservative councillor who was in the area at the time, said five or six police cars appeared to be acting as a barricade on Ainley Top roundabout, off the M62.
“I was coming back at 6.15pm from the cinema with the kids and you could hear the police cars’ sirens as you approached,” she said. “The police cars on the roundabout seemed to be being used as a barricade but I’m not sure … There seemed to be some other unmarked cars as well, parked up, but I’m not sure whether they were involved in the operation or not. It was an absolute hive of police activity.”People had initially believed the incident was a lorry or bus crash, Wilson said, but she added: “It didn’t look like a normal car crash. We just had a gut feeling that something was wrong.“An hour later I walked to the supermarket and the traffic was absolutely awful, you could see a sea of blue flashing lights. The traffic this morning is getting quite bad on the first working day after Christmas as well, so it’s going to hit the area quite badly.”
Now the above is absolute drivel and is not relevant to the incident. It is anecdotal observation.
Cinema, Kids, Barricade, Hive of Activity, Supermarket, Traffic was awful, First working day after Christmas.
Why does everything have to be dumbed down to this trite 'Loose Women' rubbish. If the Police and Media wanted this kind of reporting why didn't they assassinate the man outside his childrens' primary school instead of turning it into a spectacle for Conservative rubber necks on the cinema/supermarket trolley dash. We don't have the full details about the incident but we do know that the Police were not wearing cameras. If they knew that they were going to kill him and that it was planned, why didn't they do it in a built up area instead of on a slip road that can be seen by helicopter and overhead cameras? because they knew there would be a full scale riot. At a time of heightened tensions, this is obviously going to do a lot for race relations and religious tolerance. Do not be surprised if this is the first of many such public disappearances with the media and police working hand in glove to present it in a more palatable day time television format so that the Great British Public can digest it easier.
