police felt that they couldn't really speak out and it was left to former police officers to make the case for operational independence a very difficult situation between the secretary of state who has responsibility for the police and the police officers who had the job of carrying out policing in a very difficult moment. because there are very, very strong feelings running on both sides, and what everyone needed was for things to calm down and actually what happened on saturday was that the march, the pro—palestinian march, was arguably bigger than it might otherwise have been. but also the far right elements turned out, and of course some of the more violent scenes that we saw on saturday were actually the police trying to keep some counter—protesters away from the ceremonial area around whitehall and the cenotaph. and although you can't necessarily draw a direct line, there are certainly many people who do draw a direct line between those events on saturday and what suella braverman had been saying in the days before. braverman had been saying in the days before-— braverman had been saying in the da s before. ~ .

not only do the independent office for police conduct appear to be politically swayed from time to timehatever role it is under the bus , but there are, of course, bus, but there are, of course, lawyers that represent the families of people who get shot by the police , and they are by the police, and they are often very vocal, very militant and desperately keen to see officers thrown into jail . officers thrown into jail. >> now, peter, it's also worth pointing out, of course, that no officer, no citizen, nobody in the land should be above the law. and we're not suggesting seeing special treatment, but it does appear sometimes be the does appear sometimes to be the opposite of that. it seems to be that a policeman a that a policeman or a policewoman standing as an officer actually can be used against them . against them. >> every firearm officer who has ever been trained is told on minute. one of day, one of the training that your actions , even training that your actions, even if you merely draw the weapon out of its holster , let alone out of its holster, let alone fire it , all out o
