Five police officers will be investigated for gross misconduct over the stop and search of two elite black athletes who were driving through London with their baby. Bianca Williams, who was a sprinter for Team GB , and her partner Ricardo Dos Santos were told to stop as they travelled through Maida Vale in the west of the city. Five officers searched the couple for weapons and drugs, finding nothing, before recording details of their three-month-old baby on the Merlin police database for children known to the authorities. Footage of the incident on July 2020 went viral, with Ms Williams accusing the police of racial profiling them. The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) said today that an acting police sergeant and four police constables will all face a gross misconduct disciplinary hearing over the incident. Regional director Sal Naseem said: ‘All five officers will face allegations they breached police standards of professional behaviour for duties … [Read more...] about Five police officers could face sack over ‘racist’ stop and search of GB athlete

Amir Khan hangs up his gloves safe in the knowledge he is one of the best boxers the UK has produced, bringing excitement and drama to the global stage and inspiring countless British Asians along the way. Khan won Olympic silver as a teenager, was world champion at 22 and unified the light-welterweight division before his 25th birthday as his lightning reflexes and blurring hand speed overwhelmed many formidable opponents. He might have achieved more – it seems peculiar his talents did not transcend to winning world titles in more than one division – but a suspect chin and a waning enthusiasm meant he spent the last decade of his career in purgatory. Yet the legacy he leaves is more than the belts won or the millions banked, having been one of the few fighters from these isles to truly ‘crack’ the United States. At his zenith he split opinion like few others but he juggled boxing with several philanthropic endeavours and did not shirk speaking about difficult … [Read more...] about A closer look at Amir Khan as one of Britain’s most entertaining boxers retires

Bristol Bears defence coach Omar Mouneimne was confronted by the club’s senior players as the prime suspect of a Twitter ‘burner’ account criticising director of rugby Pat Lam, Telegraph Sport understands. Bristol, who are languishing in tenth place after a disappointing season on the field, have become embroiled in their very own “Wagatha Christie” scandal off it, regarding online comments by a now deleted account. Mouneimne has strenuously denied any involvement and remains in position at the Premiership club. It was the players, including second row Dave Attwood, who first raised the alarm after an account called “GrindRugby” posted a number of comments that seemed to suggest internal knowledge of Bristol’s training methods. Responding to posts critical of Bristol’s defence, which has conceded the third most points and tries this campaign, GrindRugby responded: “Take a look at the defensive stats for last season-top of the league! Pat wants 5 mins of d training a week to focus … [Read more...] about Bristol Bears coach confronted over ‘Wagatha Christie’ criticism of Pat Lam

On Saturday 14 May, an 18-year-old man walked into a supermarket in Buffalo and shot 13 people, killing 10 . A few days before carrying out the killings, the shooter published a 180-page manifesto on Google Docs detailing his motives, which were largely racist and antisemitic in nature. Similarly to Brenton Tarrant , who massacred 51 people and injured 40 others at a mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand in 2019, the Buffalo shooter attributed the views which caused him to carry out the killings to 4chan ; an online message board-based forum where users are able to post completely anonymously and with very little in the way of oversight or restrictions. 4chan, along with similar websites like 8chan – another anonymous forum which has also been cited by mass shooters – have a reputation for attracting the absolute human detritus of the internet. Their refusal to provide oversight to their users predictably result in them becoming hotbeds of neo-Nazi rhetoric, … [Read more...] about Want unfettered free speech?
