Clash of implacable wills
There's A Lot Of Ignorance Going Around, Stella...
Stella Headley, co-founder of Rastafari Movement UK, said Ms Farrell's treatment was 'abhorrent'.
She said: 'Within our faith, females tend to cover their hair and the dress code is to wear longer skirts and dress modestly.
'We don't wear tight clothes and don't reveal flesh.'
Accusing the force of 'institutional racism', she added: 'There's an ignorance that runs through the force that doesn't respect people's faiths or cultures.'
Well, while we're discussing 'ignorance', what about ignorance of the law and how one behaves when there's a dispute? Because Hertfordshire Police had to put up with a lot from your client...
Miss Farrell was arrested in August 2018 when she sat on her partner's car to stop it being towed away in Stevenage.
When she refused to give her name at the station she was moved to a cell monitored by round-the-clock CCTV.
As will always happen when you obstruct the police. Why would you assume that this would be a winning gambit?
Except...these days, it is:
Deputy Chief Constable Michelle Dunn said: 'I am extremely sorry for any injuries that you suffered as a result of the actions of Hertfordshire Police.'
The force said detainees are now given 'joggers and jumpers'.
Miss Farrell had to appoint a solicitor to handle her civil claim for wrongful arrest after Hertfordshire Police's professional standards department rejected her complaint.
And £45,000 of taxpayer's money handed to this woman is the result. Plus the amount of wasted time and resources.
Dal Babu, who was one of the UK's most senior British-Asian officers as a former Met chief superintendent, said Hertfordshire Police had made a 'catalogue of mistakes'.
They weren't the only ones, but they are on the hook for it. Enjoy the £45k (or however much of it is left after your legal fees are paid) but if you think I had a low opinion of the Rastafarian religion before, imagine how low it's sunk if you're a typical example of a follower...

Civilised society, yes?
There's a blogpost of ours going into Pizzagate, also Dolphin Square, everyone knows of Rotherham and Telford, years ago I ran a post called 'the missing children'.
At all times, it was seen as left field, wacky tinfoil. Imagine my surprise seeing it come right out into the open now:
How can the high-placed paedos be eliminated, p,us the deathcult gangs? May as well add plod and local councils to that.

No Government Ever Institutes 'Joined Up Policies'...
The committee's chairman, Darren Jones, said replacing gas boilers, the major source of pollution from homes, was "a huge task and we are not making near enough progress". The report urges the government to do more to explain to the public the changes they will be facing, including the potential costs and benefits.
Maybe the public has seen the potential costs and decided they don't outweigh the benefits? If that's the case, then nothing the government will do will work...
Mr Jones said the government should also replace the failed Green Homes Grant – the scheme providing financial support for people to insulate their homes.
“Ministers can’t simply leave this to the market – the government should tackle the cost of heating our homes in the round and bring forward joined-up policies that address these issues together,” he said.
When a government wonk claims that something 'can't be left to the market', hold on tight to your wallet; it means they are pushing something they know people don't want and won't accept.
“For most people, your boiler is probably the most environmentally damaging thing that you own,” said Nesta's Andrew Sissons.
And people won't care, so long as the alternative is worse.

"You were teenagers in Gloucestershire, but you spoke in the patois of urban gangsters..."
After the guilty verdict, Josh's family called on lessons to be learnt to avoid similar tragedies.
But lessons about what went wrong are likely to be far harder to elaborate and spread than simply 'it's social media won dun it!'...
They said: 'We feel all parents need to learn an urgent and desperate lesson to take closer notice and involvement in the lives of their young people, in particular on social media.
'Similarly far too many lives are being destroyed by knives, with social media an aggravating factor.'
Social media is, however, just the medium by which these animals communicate with each other; it's not the cause. That's something far deeper, and harder to reach.
'Parents and communities cannot rely on the authorities to provide a moral education to their children.'
Sadly, for far too many, it's too late. They have relied on this, for far too long. And a generation of nihilistic killers has been born.

We MUST win this for humanity's sake
The Daily Sceptic is running this:

Why have they even been allowed in?
On what possible grounds?
The British Home Office admitted the cost of housing illegal migrants in 3 and 4-star hotels cost the British taxpayer £4.7 million a day – four times higher than what they had previously claimed – provoking outrage from Nigel Farage and other conservative figures.
UK Home Office officials admitted that they misled Members of Parliament on February 2nd when they told them the cost of housing migrants in hotels cost the taxpayer £1.2 million a day, subsequently issuing a correction that the actual number is almost four times the amount at £4.7 million – or £1.71 billion ($2.31 billion) a year.
Could this topic selection possibly be telling us something?
Consider, if you would, TCW yesterday - screenshot running down the left here. Now, also consider the traffic of that major site, plus Daily Sceptic, which publishes its numbers, plus the quality of contributor.

Good!
The government’s New Plan for Immigration aims to restrict family reunion rights for refugees who travelled through a safe third country before reaching the UK. This applies to the thousands who travelled to the UK in small boats.
Many of them have, in fact, travelled through multiple safe countries. Can the 'Guardian' find one that deserves to be here this time?
Reader, they cannot:
One Syrian asylum seeker, who fled war, imprisonment and torture in his homeland before travelling through several countries and reaching the UK, said he was “horrified” by the government plans.
“We did not leave our country in search of happiness,” he told the Guardian. “I am talking here as the head of a family deserted. Rather, we went out to save our family from a war that does not know the young or the old and does not differentiate between the strong or the weak, in which no one can survive.”
“We walked in the most dangerous country, crossed the desert and crossed the English Channel in a rubber boat, knowing we may die in the sea. Has any official asked themselves what motivated us to risk ourselves … I was ready to die in order to save my family. What Priti Patel is thinking now is to eliminate our families by depriving us of family reunion.”
No, she's seeking to implement the will of the British people who have voted in a party that promised a crackdown on this sort of 'asylum shopping'.
