'Knocking people off bikes is potentially very dangerous': Diane Abbott faces furious backlash after she criticises Scotland Yard's tactic to ram moped gangs

Met Police announced last week it has cut moped crime with tough new methods
Londoners praised officers for turning the tide on yobs who plagued streets
But Labour's Shadow Home Secretary insisted method is 'potentially dangerous'
Public reply that it is the criminals who are dangerous and must be stopped

I wonder what her methods of stopping these criminals would be?

lefty politics again...encourage the criminal, blame the victim (lets face it, to a lefty , anyone who has anything and especially if they have worked for it deserves robbing).

Abbott is a far-Left Corbyn groupie and former sexual partner who can always be relied upon to oppose so-called Right wing principles such as the enforcement of law and order.

The great danger is that as Shadow Home Secretary, this preposterous woman might one day be in charge of this country's policing and security.

The Police have taken the extraordinary step of responding to Diane Abbott’s barmy tweet attacking the police for protecting people from moped crime. Diane said that the police should not be knocking moped criminals off their bikes and was stratospherically ratio’d. Probably mostly by Londoners who have had their phones nicked by moped thieves…

Camden Police corrected the Shadow Home Secretary on what the law actually says:

“Someone who’s responsible for law-making (or at least debating and ratifying new legislation) should probably realise that using tactical contact to terminate dangerous pursuits is entirely within our lawful power… And our responsibility.”

Strong riposte to the person vying to be in charge of law and order…

UPDATE: Camden Council’s Leader of the Opposition Oliver Cooper told Guido that these police tactics have been crucial to cutting down moped rime.

“Camden has been ground zero for moped muggings – but tough tactics has cut them by 90% in the last year, so it’s outrageous to see Abbott talk down our girls and boys in blue. Labour are tough on crime-fighters and tough on the solutions to crime.”

Ouch…
