Sir Keir Starmer said some strong words over the weekend. He said rioters will be arrested, charged, and imprisoned.
“The police will be making arrests. Individuals will be held on remand. Charges will follow. And convictions will follow.”
After all, a news story like this is not what Starmer needs right now. It doesn’t fit well with his pledges overseas, at least.
He’s claims he’ll restore law and order by setting police on thugs, but by when?
Surely we’ve heard this before.
Our record on protests is a grey area particularly in London, where it really counts.
It all spills over, and frankly we’re done crying about it.
It’s where most of our investment goes after all, and the rest of the UK is where the staff come from.
There has to be law here or there’s nothing left, surely? It’s not looking good for a hopeful Prime Minister.
Maybe things will change.
