Met Police officer Perry Lathwood is found GUILTY of assault after he 'manhandled' a mum and wrongly arresting her for fare evasion in Croydon.
Jocelyn Agyemang sustained bruises to her arm as she was held while her traumatised young son cried loudly.
The video is horrifying.

Yom HaShoah, Holocaust remembrance Day, marks the Holocaust and honors the 17 million people murdered during Nazi Germany’s genocide, including 6 million Jews.

We know our remembrance is hollow if we cannot apply the lessons of our past to the present day. 🧵

So, genius me decided to put flipped eye publishing's founding year as the account's DOB since we're now officially almost 23 years old and I thought it would look cool; the geniuses at X decided to lock the account because we were too 'young' when we opened the account! 🤦🏾‍♂️
