de Menezes

Alex Harrowell on the IPCC investigation into the Jean Charles de Menezes shooting:

Here we hit the damning detail; nobody ever identified Jean Charles de Menezes as the bomber, but this information never reached anyone in a position to act on it. Yes, several of the surveillance officers were at different times of the opinion that he might perhaps be; but no-one who thought so had seen his face. The only member of the surveillance team who did thought he wasn’t.

Read the whole thing and appreciate why Sir Ian Blair really has to go. Alex can help you there as well.

    I can’t believe Blair has managed to stay on. He makes the likes of Presscott and BLucket look like easy quitters.
