It’s amazing the way the story swings. Reading this latest BBC account, it seems nothing but criticism is being hurled at the Police. By contrast, Mote is increasingly being portrayed as the victim – when in fact he was a victim-maker. The Police are put in impossible positions and this is one. BBC keen to given Andy Hayman a platform, I note.
RAOUL MOTE – POLICE VICTIM

I notice the BBC mongs keep calling him a ‘fugative’. How about ‘murderer’?
I see a million Moats’ every day, take a look on any Council estate and you see these retards with tattoo’s all over their body usually with a can of strong lager in one hand and a pitbull on a lead in the other.
The piece of shit is better off dead.
I wonder how many BBC males fancied him? You can imagine a load of those camp twats at Television Centre enjoying a bit of ‘rough’

The Fugitive? It was the one armed man wot did it.
Or the no headed man, in Moaty’s case.
Anyone else notice when the beeboids want an anti Tory view of the NHS their ‘goto’ group is the King’s fund a left wing organisation that the BBC spin as neutral.
This lot were always bigging up Liebour NHS policy when in power. The BBC must think we’re stupid.
Yes, they kept popping up during the election, always to denounce the Tories. (This blog noted that at the time.) Their most prominent spokesman Chris Ham was a government advisor during Blair’s second term of office, helping shape Labour’s health policy. Labour’s NHS policy was in part his policy. This doesn’t get mentioned when he’s interviewed.
Jim Naughtie certainly didn’t mention Chris Ham’s links to Labour’s NHS policy this morning, introducing him in the time-honoured BBC way as “chief executive of the respected think tank the King’s Fund”. (They’re always “respected” if the BBC likes what they say.)
Craig,
As you know “respected” is BBC code for “left-wing”. There are no “respected ” “right-wing” think tanks !
Anyone notice that three police officers were shot by ‘dissidents’ in Northern Ireland yesterday? Where is the media hysteria – where is the huge police man hunt? Why is it not top story on the bbc?
“The trouble began at about 2345 BST on Sunday. Police used water canon and fired baton rounds at the nationalist rioters.”
This sounds pretty serious to me. Why is this being soft peddled. Is this perhaps because the naughty miscreants are “nationalist”?
Notihng to report here, move along…..
From what I’ve seen on the News Channel, they’re really just troublemakers who are not at all connected to Sinn Fein and want to “destabilize” things, full stop. No actual goals to break NI away from the UK or anything.
If reports of the prison service forewarning the local police that Moat had expressed a real intention to cause serious harm to his ex girlfriend are to be believed, then in my view that’s the only real critisism that could be levelled at them. A quiet word or two from a mature, experienced copper (who see domestic situations explode into violence frequently) might have helped. The man had lost touch with reality even before he shot his first victim. The police’s knowledge that they’d handled the initial situation badly probably resulted in their apparent heavy – handedness later … but what if they’d failed to act in that way, and as a result yet another innocent victim had been shot?
Once he’d pulled the trigger for the first time, the outcome was a foregone conclusion – he knew he had to die. He made the decision himself. Any prison officer or policeman will tell you: when relationships break down, events can quickly get out of hand, innocent people often get hurt,or worse – and normally quiet and law abiding people quite often find themselves in jail.
OT but the Open Thread is way down ..
A couple of links on biased BBC/CNN reporting on Thailand’s red protesters:-

Very interesting articles. Do you recall the anger expressed by one Thai commentor on this site at the time, making some of these points?
What news of Gazza?
piggy…he’s just finished a four pack and he’s onto his next pack
Phew.
What is the real truth behind the public’s reaction to Raoul Moat? http://bit.ly/a8vSN6
I see Shukman was ‘introduced’ as the BBC’s ‘science correspondent’ on the news tonight.
So what qualifications in science or engineering does this prat have I wonder?
Had to laugh the other night, some halfwit beeboid (also introduced as a science correspondent) got confused between a comet and an asteroid.
I know it must be hard beeboids, you know that complicated science stuff, much easier to talk about things you understand, like homosexuality, peaceful Islam, jew hating and of course where to buy good quality coke in Islington.
Remember when Liebour were in power? Remember how camp male beeboids used to read out Government propaganda on the BBC news as a ‘positive’ and how often the opposition were ignored?
Note the difference now, now the BBC announce a Government plan then instantly go on the attack.
Also why do the BBC drug addicts go on about NHS ‘cuts’ when NHS spending has been ring fenced? Yes the NHS has been asked to make savings, but that money is going back into the NHS.
Yet more lies from the Cocaine addicts at TV centre.
Channel 4 news covered this fawning for Moat last night; With the mother and sister of the dead man speaking out about how their son was shot 3 times in the head by Moat yet he (Moat) is being banded as the victim. I quote;
Hs Njie was also critical of some friends of Moat, who have provided sympathetic tributes following his death. “I don’t understand now, for some reason, why he is being praised and seen as some hero. It’s wrong,” she said.
Pounce,
Ms. Njie is a typical West African from the Wolof tribe. She knows right from wrong ! Good luck to her.
