Another important piece of news from the BBC. Despite being a state-run channel, the BBC, which is far more influential than private media outlets, has dealt a significant blow to racist policies within the police force with its recent Panorama program. A Metropolitan Police officer was dismissed for gross negligence after appearing in an undercover BBC Panorama report. Three allegations against Police Officer Philip Neilson were substantiated; these included making “deeply racist and discriminatory remarks” about different ethnic groups.
Neilson was immediately dismissed. Of course, there are others within the police force, but this latest decision is a significant step taken by the police against their anti-racist stance. This is perhaps one of the most significant reasons for the police’s failure! Because, especially among British citizens of foreign origin, the following conclusion is unequivocal: If there are immigrants committing crimes, the police deliberately fail to intervene and simply wait, saying, ‘Let the immigrants eat and kill each other.’
A growing number of people believe that this police stance is also contributing to the rise in crime. There is also a covert, overt, and latent hostility towards immigrants. We once again congratulate the BBC Panorama program producers and the BBC management.
