I think we’re watching Andrew Coster slowly abandon his woke policing style.

He revealed this morning that he’s now reviewing the police pursuit policy.

Because these kids are ram-raiding then running away from the cops and the cops aren’t allowed to chase them.

[…] I think the turning point came at that parliamentary protest.

[…] He tried the softly softly approach. Didn’t want to take down the tents at the start. Kept promising he was going to tow vehicles unless people moved then didn’t tow vehicles when they didn’t move and how did that go?

Terribly. It ended up with the worst policing scenes since the Springbok tour.
