IAN BLAIR (hopefully soon to be ex Police Commissioner), COVERUP COP

Jean Charles de Menezes supporter for justice | 20.08.2005 15:34 | Analysis | Repression | Social Struggles

Jean Charles de Menezes and Jean's heartbroken family deserve justice and the truth. We all deserve a police force that protect us. Jean's cousin Alessandro Pereira is right, he wants those who break the law including the 'police' murderers who illegally killed Jean to be prosecuted.

"Shoot to kill", no questions asked, only happens police states, and is dangerous to the rule of law and puts the lives of other innocents like Jean Charles de Menezes at risk.
The police are supposed to uphold the law and tell the truth
Instead Blair, you allowed the murder of innocent Jean Charles de Menezes. Then you told lies about what happened, but worse you lied about Jean and smeared his good reputation.

IAN BLAIR (hopefully soon to be ex-Police Commissioner), COVERUP COP
If there's no coverup why weren't we told the truth.
Ian Blair, head of the Metropolitan police is often seen making exaggerated, misleading and untrue statements on television. Just like Tony Blair with WMD, Ian seems to create a climate of fear, rather than protecting us. This is sinister and when it is done, there always seems to be a motive of increasing the Government’s powers and creating a totalitarian state. Ian Bliar, like his namesake Tony Blair is turning the UK into a dangerous Police State. Ian Blair has shown he lacks integrity, and is a liar. I do not trust him.
After the 21/7 failed booby bomb attempts, Ian Blair misled the public on television by saying there haven't been many injuries. There was in fact only one person with minor injury. I have seen many examples of hype and falseness from Ian Blair, often manipulating the public by carefully choosing words that create fear.
Ian Blair a man who is careful with his words and he has a degree in English. Yet after the ‘police’ killed innocent Jean Charles de Menezes, Ian Blair lied, and Blair was repeatedly reckless with the truth. For example, anyone can tell looking at the design outside of the apartment building in which Jean lived that it has several flats. And since the ‘police’ murdered Jean Charles de Menezes and had his body, they could not be mistaken about what he was wearing, irrespective of what witnesses said. Only one post mortem was done on gentle Jean’s body. The pathologist who did the post mortem on Jean is facing a separate inquiry for misconduct by the General Medical Council. The post mortem documents had lies about the circumstances of Jean’s death, and what he was wearing. Yet, the pathologist would know what he was wearing because he had Jean’s body and would have to examine the clothes. The police discouraged the Menezes family from having a second post mortem, even though the first was hugely inaccurate. What were they trying to hide? Ian Blair has frequently behaved inappropriately for someone with his powers. Ian Blair has clearly lied, surely the British public aren’t fooled by him. Blair told lies, and gave misinformation about facts that were easily checkable by the police and they would have known. Ian Blair chose not to correct untrue facts circulating in the media. I don’t want a corrupt police officer in our British police force, and especially not at the top.
I find Ian Blair despicable and do not want someone with his lack of integrity to be in charge, when the police should be there to protect us. Blair should resign, but has continued to hold on to his well-paid job and powers. Crime and anti-social behaviour are a growth industry under Labour, and Ian Blair and his predecessor both failed to prevent this. I believe that the Labour Party’s policies are responsible for the soaring crime rate. We have a more dangerous society because of their policies, and instead of preventing crime, New Labour want to take away the civil rights of the British pubic. The New Labour, Blair-led policing has meant a low quality of life for British people.
Ian Blair has caused enormous hurt to the grieving family of Jean Charles de Menezes. Blair has acted with questionable morality. Blair smeared Jean’s reputation, as part of a Blair-led cover-up campaign. Blair has dishonoured the Menezes family and the reputation of the police.
Ian Blair should have his knighthood taken away.
IAN BLAIR SHOULD BE MADE TO RESIGN NOW.

BILL MORRIS
Tony’s crony Bill Morris (Mugabee look-alike) is supposed to ensure professional standards within the police. How can we have a professional police, if Morris is not fit for the job due to bias and not questioning the recent unprofessional behaviour of Ian Blair. Morris wants the IPCC to keep quiet. Jean Charles de Menezes family and the British public deserve the truth. New Labour crony Bill Morris should be replaced with someone who is more independent. There are numerous Labour appointees in public office now that I find questionable. Morris seems to be supporting “shoot to kill”, and insults us like sheep by saying we should support this. It is not IPPC vs Blair Metropolitan Police cover-up that is the problem. The problem is that cover-up cop’s behaviour will mean people don’t trust the police enough to report crimes or work with the police. I think the ordinary police officers deserve someone in charge that the public trust, because they have to follow his orders, and this must be difficult when Ian Blair has shown poor integrity. From what Bill Morris has said, he thinks keeping is more important than exposing corruption and the British public knowing the truth. Ian Blair’s use of language has not been honest, and Morris has not questioned this enough, whereas he criticised honest language of the IPPC. Well done to the IPCC for speaking out.


BETTER POLICING
For the sake of the memory of innocent Jean Charles de Menezes and all who want to see fair, honest policing and justice done.

"We never believed that story of theirs. We knew that they (London authorities) were lying," Maria Beatriz de Figueiredo, an aunt of Menezes, told Reuters by phone on August 17, 2005.
