Calm
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
User has omitted critical context. Mr Kaba was asked to stop his vehicle. However, he did not comply and instead attempted to ram his vehicle through police cars. This ultimately led to an officer discharging his weapon as he felt his colleagues were in danger of being killed. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

How dare you. British slaveowners were compensated to the equivalent of near £20 BILLION in today’s money, drawing a debt that was only paid off, by taxpayers, in 2015. Gladstone’s father received one of the largest individual payouts, equivalent to £80m today. Shall I continue?
They ought to pay us for ending slavery, it is not something any other country had done and we were motivated by Christian charity.

Today for #BlackHistoryMonthUK I salute Olaudah Equiano who published one of the earliest arguments against slavery. He was born in Nigeria 🇳🇬 circa 1745, and later bought his freedom and eventually settled in the UK.

“Wipe bottoms for us today” What a thoroughly obnoxious and disrespectful comment about both workers who provide physical and emotional support in an extremely demanding environment (a real job unlike hers) for nearly minimum wage & those who are being cared for. Our loved ones.
Kemi Badenoch takes a swipe at migrant care workers, despite the UK having a shortage of 130,000 care workers, "We need to make sure we are thinking about the next generation, not just who's going to wipe bottoms for us today"

“Her”. You pathetic scum. You don’t speak for the UK.
"We stand with Israel, and recognise her right to self defence in the face of this aggression." UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is addressing the British public after Iran launched missiles towards Israel. trib.al/df1dN4r 📺 Sky 501

Brixton Market has been a part of my whole life and the lives of many others. It’s a huge part of not just Brixton but London as a whole. To see it sold off would be devastating for the community but everyone that loves or knows about Brixton.
This is really really sad man 😢💔 Such an important cultural hub in Brixton…. I’ve watched so many of my favourite places I’ve DJd at disappear. We need to have a conversation on what Cultural Protection means and looks like in London.
