Former Met chief superintendent Dal Babu has described the incident as “totally appalling”.
But Anderson claimed: “The message I am getting loud and clear from my constituents is they are fed up with seeing police dancing around rainbows and being nice to people and running off from rioters.
“They want police to do their job, and I think these police yesterday should be commended.
“In fact, I’d give them a medal.”
Foreign office minister, Baroness Chapman, responded to Anderson’s remarks on Politics Live by saying: “I think Lee’s completely wrong to rush to a conclusion like that, not in full possession of all the facts.”
She added that “it’s a very sensitive situation” and many facts remain unclear.
Chapman said she would “caution colleagues against jumping in and reaching conclusions”, and claimed: “I don’t think it’s right for politicians to go around grandstanding and trying to make political capital out of this.”
But Anderson doubled down on his remarks on social media and lashed out at the BBC over the clip.
He wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “The Biased Beeb.
“Hardly heard anything from them about the female officer who had her nose broke or the officers taken to hospital.
“I will back our police and said this earlier to the BBC. Brace yourself for the nonsense in the studio.”

You tell ’em Lee. Sick of police being nice to people. I want to live in a world where if you ask a local bobby for directions they call you a *’cunt’* and kick you In the shin.
What a beautiful world.

The officer could’ve killed that man with that kick and that stomp on the head. Even police officers are disgusted by what they saw. Absolutely nothing to applaud for.
Also, the Leeds situation was managed by West Yorkshire Police, this incident is managed by Greater Manchester Police. Different police forces, different situation, not comparable at all.

Thick as pig shit fascist oaf applauds police brutality – quelle fucking surprise

Of course he does. It’s 30p Lee. Next we’ll be hearing that Farrage is racist.

The response to this incident is going to lead to more white working class girls being groomed in the future.

Like his frog-faced leader, he just says this shit so he’ll get noticed and talked about. And it’s working. They survive on publicity, so the best thing we can do is just ignore them.

Millions of people in the country have to live along side the scroates of society and we are sick of it.
The guy who got kicked didn’t care that he attacked women, he didn’t even care they were police.
Imagine what it’s like living near such a person when you don’t have the protection of a badge, a baton, a tazer or a gun and your only hope is phoning 999 and praying the police haven’t abandoned you to the mobs and riots like they just did in harehills.

As did one of their other MPs yesterday. Unfortunately this will be popular on this sub and more widely.

What a douche. Without knowing any details, he’s supporting police brutality because he wants to see people he doesn’t like take a beating.
Maybe if we get more news, this could (unlikely) be justified for security, but to me it looks like a violent act of gbh against someone on the floor and defenceless

Kicking people full force in the head with steel toecapped boots
is good actually

Of course he does he’s a thick racist c word which I’m not sure I can post on here.

Of course he does. Most of the time Lee Anderson looks like he’s thinking about stamping on someone’s head.

These days, you get suspended and put under investigation if you even footie kick and head stomp a surrendered suspect.

As usual no mention of the woman with a broken nose and the other officers in hospital, he gets a free pass from reddit because of demographics 🙄

30p Lee sounding his dog whistle for all thick cunts to muster.

He knows it will never happen to him. An old white man in a suit would have been asked if he’d like to accompany them to the station and been given a cup of tea and a biscuit. No need for handcuffs.

Are we really surprised that 30p is choosing to be a bastard at this stage?

He’s lucky he said this after the election or he would have lost votes.

Refer him to the CPS for inciting public order offences and endangering the other officers. They won’t do anything, the usual suspects will scream freeze peach but it’ll shut this dumb fuckwad up until they’ve finished pissing about and decline to prosecute.
But I can dream……

Has anyone here actually looked at what happened? Some moron was assaulting armed police officers at an airport, of all bloody places, he is lucky to be alive and the protestors were calling for violence after what happened, beyond ridiculous to blame the police in this scenario as it could have been a lot worse for all involved. Maybe if the police were properly funded and had the manpower to deal with these situations they wouldn’t have to resort to escalating to preserve their well being

Reform voters better think very carefully where they stand. I don’t reckon the gammony types who vote for them exactly have squeaky clean records.
We are having a situation in America where the right wing have been turning up the heat for decades and then act surprised when someone tries to take the former president off the census. Same shit here. Fascists, the lot of them, and I’m tired of being told I’m not allowed to call a spade a spade.

Fascists going to fash.
You do not want to live in a state where police are empowered to deliver extra judicial beatings, unless you are a fascist who wants to use that power against minorities you don’t like.

Assault armed police officers and this is what happens. Well done to the police on this occasion
Disco-Bingo on
Any police officer stamping on someone’s head out of anger and frustration is clearly criminal and should be looked at by a court.
If he was not already on the floor and people were in potential danger, then maybe he could argue through it, but that wasn’t what the video showed.
As for Lee Anderson, who gives a fuck what this tit wobble says?
