England is no longer a serious Country

A 50-year-old history teacher arrested, held in a cell for nearly eight hours, fingerprinted, photographed, and banned from seeing her own children on Mother’s Day, all for confiscating their iPads?  - Concerned Citizen@BGatesIsaPyscho

This is a perfect example of why unchecked police power is a threat to democracy itself. 

A 50-year-old history teacher arrested, held in a cell for nearly eight hours, fingerprinted, photographed, and banned from seeing her own children on Mother’s Day, all for confiscating their iPads? 

This is not a mistake. 

This is systemic rot. 

• What this shows is that in today’s UK, and increasingly across much of Europe, police forces are no longer prioritizing public safety. 
• They are acting as ideological enforcers for a political class and bureaucratic elite that are completely detached from the concerns of ordinary citizens. 
• Violent crimes go uninvestigated for days, theft reports pile up unanswered, but a parent taking away a screen to encourage schoolwork gets the full weight of the state thrown at her within the hour...
