Our thoughts are with our colleagues in Northern Ireland who have endured several nights of violence and aggression. Our Chair, Stuart Cowan has roundly condemned attacks on PSNI officers, bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c20x…

Portadown: Masonry thrown at police in fourth night of NI disorder

There was disorder in Northern Ireland for the fourth night in a row but at a lower level than seen earlier this week.

He said: "An initially peaceful protest appears to have been hijacked by a minority of people who are intent on causing disorder. Their aggression has been directed not only at police officers on the frontline but also at other members of the community.

"Officers are reported to have had petrol bombs and bricks thrown at them. This mindless violence is totally unacceptable." PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher has urged people not to take to the streets tonight, warning those involved in disorder will be prosecuted.

Read: The Crown Prosecution Service has charged two men with assault offences after an incident at Manchester Airport on 23 July 2024. We acknowledge that in this case, as in any other, the strength of feeling has been high. Our specially trained prosecutors are often at the forefront of dealing with high-profile cases subject to intense public and media scrutiny and will always make independent and objective decisions based on all available evidence.

"Incredibly, McCourt-Knight decided to report the bag as missing, immediately linking himself to the crime," reports @MetroUK #GoodPoliceWork by our colleagues here metro.co.uk/2024/11/15/deale…

Dealers locked up after leaving drug bag on a train and reporting it missing

The mistake brought down a whole drugs ring.
