Absolutely this!.
To those saying comments like "oh good more money for those who contribute nothing" - check ur facts!. 40% of UC claimants are the working poor others are carers, have disabilities or illness, & some who don't have work, want it. A little more compassion & less judgement.

I appreciate what I am going to say is going to be unpallatable for some but it needs to be said. It really doesn't matter how many stop and search charters you have, if fundamentally ethnic groups are still disproportionately (and wrongly) targeted by the process.

YEF research found Stop and search reduces crime in the UK by just 5%, In 2022-23, stop and search was used by the police more than 500,000 times in England and Wales. Most searches found nothing, with 14% leading to an arrest and 3% finding a weapon .What does that tell you?.
🔍 How effective is stop and search at reducing violent crime?. The YEF Toolkit shows stop and search reduces crime by 13% (global evidence), and by 5% (UK evidence). It also reviews racial disproportionality in the use of stop and search and the impact on Black and minority

I too have been shocked by her and others. What I would say to anyone thinking of becoming keyboard warriors over this is to just remember these are human beings and these groups draw in people who are often isolated or don't feel listened to. Hurt people, hurt people.
I've seen Sammy Woodhouse in police training sessions, speaking compellingly on the abuse she suffered. Sad to see that she's gone all in with Tommy Robinson's lot.

Make no mistake, this isn't free speech. They have used the tragic loss of lives to create a toxic incitement of hatred.
🚨 WATCH: Far-right protestors chant “Allah, Allah, who the f**k is Allah?” at tonight’s planned rally in Southport . The rally was organised after fake news spread on social media that the suspect of yesterday’s stabbings was a Muslim asylum seeker . Police have regained control
