    More than half of black people searched by UK police felt humiliated, survey finds

    Started by Equin0x,

    https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/nov/08/more-black-people-than-white-find-stop-and-search-humiliating-uk-survey-finds More than half of black people stopped and searched by the police say they were left with feelings of humiliation or embarrassment, according to a survey. Is it true that 4 out of 5 stop and searches result in nothing being found? I can't see what source he is using for that claim.

    UK police will be at Qatar World Cup to ‘deconflict’ situations with England fans

    Started by Equin0x,

    https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/nov/01/uk-police-will-be-at-qatar-world-cup-to-deconflict-situations-with-england-fans Fears of England fans inadvertently provoking police during the World Cup have caused UK officials to send extra officers to Qatar to “deconflict” situations. The idealist in me says that that the team shouldn't even be taking part in this competition, but they are so it's probably good to have a deconfliction mechanism in place. Qatari police probably won't show the same restraint that officers in this country do when policing matches.
