WHAT IS THE CASY REPORT?
Casey report into the Met Police:
The Casey Report unveils shocking catalogue of racist, misogynist and homophobic behaviour and abuse across the force.
OUR RESPONSE
YET STILL the SO call leader, Police Commissioner Rowley refuses to accept the label. The racist culture is deeply embedded. Institutional racism is woven in its make up and design. Baroness Casey, has advised leaders of change to accept the report in full as conditions and descriptions as described in the report. However, Mark Rowley STILLrefuses to acknowledge the tight fitting label and discription of 'institutional racism', He's just NOT prepared or willing to recognises the findings in its entirety, deeming labels are not useful and political and ambiguous.
Mark Rowley views institutional racism as political.
We of course have an opposing view -
BLACKLIVESMATTER.UK see Mark Rowley is an integral part of the problem of racism in the MET and he clearly demonstrates his attitude with racist micro-aggression towards Black citizens by continuing to gaslight Black people experience, and trauma.
Baroness Casey, laid it all out in the latest report. These been previous commisioned reports - The Lammy, MacPherson and Lord Scarman report, 3 previous reports before this 4th Casey Report. Past reports eventually gathered dust and all but disregarded.
How can/will the Casey report be different. Will the rug and brush just get that much bigger to help shift the dirt deeper underneath for another few decades more. NOT if we have anything to do with the landscape to help break the old fashioned out of date model of policing.
Mark Rowley is now 30yrs in the establishment and part of the old establishment, seems rolling him out may be a waste of time, a waste-man who cannot be reformed himself let alone become a leader to have any sort of acumen to reform the MET.
The MET police force either needs to be abolished, broken up and disbanded. Subjected too a Royal Commission is the best way forward, some are suggesting.
We won’t let it lie. Our children physical and mental health rely on us to create waves strong enough to change the tide.
BLACK CHILDREN 6 X MORE LIKELY TO BE TARGETED
CHILDREN'S COMMISSIONER
Dame Rachel de Souza
Strip search of children in England and Wales
Contrary to guidance, 6% of strip searches were conducted with at least one officer of a different gender than the child present. Over half of all cases saw no further action taken against the child.
Police strip searched nearly 3,000 children between 2018 and mid-2022It confirms just how badly our children are being failed by the the police AND as young as eight strip-searched by police.
Black children were six times more likely to be targeted than the overall population, figures show.
OUR RESPONSE IN BRIEF
We BLACKLIVESMATTER.UK believe there are many sexual predators, voyeurs, power crazed and obsessed police officers serving an preying on Black vulnerable minors participating in invasive strip searches absent of parent/s and or appropriate adult.
WE CONSIDER STRIP SEARCH IS STATE SANCTIONED SEXUAL ASSAULT AND ITS TIME TO CHANGE THE LAW.

Streatham Hill shooting: 7 unanswered questions as police killing of Chris Kaba investigated
The police are yet to answer a number of questions after armed officers killed dad-to-be Chris Kaba in Streatham last night. Mr Kaba was shot by police who had been following a "suspect" vehicle, which was then stopped following "tactical contact" at 9.51pm, Monday, (September 5), in Kirkstall Gardens, Streatham Hill. His family are demanding answers from the Metropolitan Police.
MyLondon put seven questions to the police about the events surrounding the shooting of Mr Kaba. The Met did not provide a response to the questions, but referred MyLondon to the IOPC. Among these questions were inquiries as to why a non-lethal weapon wasn't used by armed officers and if Mr Kaba had been asked to exit the vehicle before he was shot.
Police have confirmed that a specialist firearms officer shot Mr Kaba, however police have not said why a firearm was used or said whether Mr Kaba was thought to have had a weapon. Chris Kaba's cousin, Jefferson Bosela, 27, a secondary teacher working in Croydon, shared multiple questions surrounding the death of his family member.

Deborah Coles, Director of INQUEST, said:“When the police kill, they must be held accountable to the rule of law. INQUEST fully supports the family’s call for this to be a criminal investigation from the outset. It is essential that fatal use of force by police is examined with this high level of scrutiny.
There is rightly anger and frustration at yet another Black man whose life has been cut short after the use of lethal force by police. Too often we see misinformation and demonisation of those who die. We hope this is not repeated here, as family and friends mourn the loss of a loved one.”

INSTITUTIONAL RACISM
43 UK POLICE FORCES
Britain’s most senior police leaders are considering making a public admission that their forces are institutionally racist, the Guardian has learned.
High-level discussions began on Thursday and come as their special adviser on race says the declaration is needed if promises of radical reform are to be believed by Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities. More discussions will be held in January, and a decision from police chiefs is expected in February.
"The race crisis that has gripped policing led to thousands of people taking to the streets across the UK in support of Black Lives Matter, triggered by the murder of George Floyd by a police officer in the US in May 2020."

IOPC recommendations to tackle Met culture after investigation uncovers bullying and harassment in the ranks
Published
01 Feb 2022
Other inappropriate behaviour by officers, including, racism, misogyny, harassment and the exchange of offensive social media messages, is also highlighted in a learning report we are now publishing from our Operation Hotton investigations. The investigations focused on teams formed to tackle crime and disorder in the Westminster area and were expanded after officers came forward to report concerns about the conduct of colleagues.
The 15 recommendations we have made seek to tackle underlying cultural issues by preventing environments from developing in which unprofessional and inappropriate behaviour can thrive and go unchallenged. Included are recommendations for the MPS to publicly commit to being an anti-racist organisation with a zero-tolerance policy towards sexism, misogyny, bullying and harassment.

Serious Racially Aggravated Assault
Violent attack on Black girl
BLACK LIVES MATTER STATEMENT
Assault in Salcombe Road, Thomas Knyvett College, Ashford
Incident 2.30 pm Monday 6th Feb 2023
First and foremost our hearts and concern goes out to the victim seen in the widely shared video, a young Black girl racially assaulted by a group of acting 'feral' white children who were ecouraged by irresponsible, some would have good cause to reasonably argue unfit parents who were heard tgo egged on a phyiscial group attack on the young girl victim, in the most horrific manner. We now underdand there was a 2nd victime a white girl.
We like many hundreds of thousands who feels outrage and are appalled as well as saddened by the footage of the animalistic viscious, violent assault inflicted upon a young Black girl outside Thomas Knyvett school in Ashford, Surrey. This inhumane attack took place in front of many onlookers, adults, including parents and Thomas Knyvett teachers who had a duty of care BUT choose not to act ot intervene, instead looked on and did nothing. These adults have a lot to answer to, take full responsibility, accountablilty of failing to safeguard and protect minors being assaulted and consequences must be laid at the feet of indviduals as well as the institution the teachers represent.
Police have appealed for information, which is regarded as a 'serious racially aggravated assault'. The parents of the aggressors who are moniors were heard verbally to encouraged their own children to attack the victims, a Black girl, who sought hospital treatment after the horrific attack, which included racial slurs and a threat to kill was heard. The white child victim did not seek or need hospital or medical attention to our knowledge.
The incident took place outside Thomas Knyvett College in Ashford. The child attacked, and her family will be deeply impacted and traumatised by this incident, forever, and affected longterm by this heinous and traumatic event in their life and will need as much outpouring of love and support as available.
The Black community are traumatised too by this racial act of violence, at the same time we appreciate the acknowledgment and equal feeling of outrage from the white (anti-racist) community, who stand with us calling for justice, and for those responsible to be held to account and all involved feel the consequences and the full weight of the law to follow in due course.
If you like many of us feel the school should be closed until a full investigation has been carried out make your voices heard.

Oxford University St Peter's College and other elite institutions accused of ‘hypocrisy’ over multi-million-pound Mosley donation
TAINTED, DIRTY MONEY
Fascist party and Mosely roamed the streets of Dalston, East London and Notting Hill, West London seeking out Afro-Caribbean men beat up
Academics, Professor Lawrence Goldman hit out at ‘moral failure’ over decision to ‘take money from a fund established by proven and known fascists’
"The Mosleys should spend the money on the communities they terrorised..."
It,s time for those renowned Oxford student activists to advocate that ‘Mosley Must Fall"
Max Mosley was a racist and fascist. Max Mosley was in charge of 'the youth movement' of his father's (Oswald Moseley) fascist party and he roamed the streets of Notting Hill in the period 1959-62 looking for Afro-Caribbean men to beat up. His father, titled Sir Oswald Mosley, was the leader of the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s. Max Mosley published racist and abusive election literature about the Windrush generation.
In total, Max Mosley made donations of £12 million to the University of Oxford and to St. Peter's in the years before his death in May, 2021. His violent and racist past was public knowledge from 2018, but the University continued to take race hate money from him, nonetheless.

Black Lives Matter UK has written to Oxford's University's vice-chancellor and to the master of St Peter's College hours after the Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi said Oxford must explain to Jewish students why it accepted money from the Mosley charitable trust.
We have written in protest laying out what we rightfully and morally expect Oxford and St Peter's to do.
We wrote to tell them in essence that the Mosley money should be returned. No university should touch money belonging to fascists and racists, especially violent racists.
The university was given £6million from a charitable trust set up by motor-racing tycoon Max Mosley from the inheritance he received from his father, Sir Oswald Mosley, leader of the British Union of Fascists, the Telegraph reported.
It's also been revealed two colleges, St Peter's College and Lady Margaret Hall (LMH) previously accepted more than £6.3 million from the Mosley family trust.
Who is Professor Lawrence Goldman?

Wikepedia: LAWRENCE GOLDMAN
Lawrence Goldman is the whistle-blower featured in the press, with extensive coverage in the Daily Telegraph who who read up on all the history and issues about Max Mosley's 'benefactions' to Oxford University. Also, reporting in the Times, Sky News, Daily Mail, Guardian and more.
Lawrence Goldman was a fellow of St. Peter's College, Oxford and held a lectureship in the Oxford History Faculty for 29 years. For all that time, as well as teaching British History, he taught the history of slavery in the United States, particularly the final year Special Subject 'Slavery, Race and the Crisis of the Union 1857-1875'. He is now retired and an emeritus fellow of St. Peter's.
Lawrence Goldman (retired emeritus fellow of St. Peter's) is still using his voice for fair justice and will NOT fall silent, he's been consistent and is STILL taking a public stance on racial injustices and calling out the institutional hypocrites THEY ARE!
Who was Kelso Benjamin Cochrane?
KELSO BENJAMIN COCHRANE (1926-1959)
In Britain, Kelso Cochrane worked as a carpenter whilst saving to attend law school. On May 17, three weeks before his wedding he was murdered.
Around midnight on May 16, Cochrane left his fiancée’s flat in Notting Hill for Paddington General Hospital to seek treatment for a thumb injury. In order to reach the hospital, Cochrane had to pass a popular pub frequented by Sir Oswald Mosley, a well-known white nationalist and staunch anti-immigrant advocate, and his supporters. From across the street, six white men shouted, “Hey, Jim Crow” at Cochrane. The men then descended upon him and stabbed him. A taxi driver rushed Cochrane to St. Charles’s Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 1:00 a.m. Cochrane’s last words were, “They asked me for money. I told them I had none.” Read Blackpast article
__
The Mosleys’ ‘Union Movement’ took to the streets and whipped up racism on a massive scale in North Kensington, igniting race riots and setting the scene for murders. The Mosleys worked for a white racist uprising and a race war.
Kelso Cochrane was among their first victims.
Mosley led his campaign on an anti-immigration platform, calling for forced repatriation of Caribbean immigrants as well as a prohibition upon mixed-race marriages.
Oxford University Professor Lawrence Goldman has spoken up on the current issue of the donation from the Mosley charitable trust and warned that the Mosley millions must be rejected. He said: ‘Some might call it blood money. Everything about the Mosley family and the Mosley name is contaminated.’
He continued: ‘My story is not uncommon. My grandfather lost two siblings, their spouses and five nieces and nephews in the holocaust.’ Professor Goldman has written an Open Letter to all of the governing body fellows of St Peters College appealing to each of them personally to use their vote to stop the donation.
He has warned that accepting such a donation would be a disaster for the college and pose a threat to the existence of Oxford University.
In fact, the students’ and workers’ unions at Oxford must now take a stand and tell the governing body that it will take strike action all along the line unless this donation is returned to its bloody sender at once.

There is a troubling racial disparity in the targeting and punishment of Black people for drug related offences. Despite being no more or even less likely to use drugs than white people, Black people are far more likely to be charged for possession rather than cautioned, to be taken to court, to be fined or imprisoned and to get a criminal record than their white counterparts. Black people are also nearly more than 10 times as likely to get stopped and searched for drugs than white people.
The criminalisation of young Black boys needs to STOP where White counterparts mostly walk free without ever having a criminal record for social drug use.
The Police need to STOP racially using the misuse of drugs act to victimising young Black people.
