    I will never forgive Tony Blair the Labour Party or the Conservative Party for what they have done to my country and to think our ancestors fought for this to the death . I detest any of them in power since 1997 who contributed to the decline and hardship of today

    This is the police force I will always remember and respect. Today's police are far beyond the reach of any of the officers of the day. I'm not saying all police of today, but most in my book leave alot to be desired. How our government has allowed our police to become the mess it is today is beyond me. Recruitment standards need to be addressed and applicant's should be vetted as they where back then.

    Nice bit of film. Reminds me of time spent with my brother John Craggs, and his colleagues, who worked out of Chelsea nick throughout the 70s. Old school, common sense policing. John preferred the Rovers to the Triumph 2500pi, as he said the Triumph was much more tail-happy on wet corners.

      The Rover P6 was one of the first UK cars designed with safety in mind. I remember the adverts pushing safety for this model. Crush zones, option of Denovo run flat tyres, etc.

    Fuck me the ROVER P6 3500 V8 . Got me off big superbikes. A black man showed me the way forward in the early 80s . "Glasford daily' you're a legend he calmly explained cars were Warm fast music and pussy in the next seat . Our police we're given SD1 2600 to catch me in a 3500 V8. Not a hope in hells chance. I remember being asked to pull over outside BRIXTON Police station at 4am by traffic division in a SD1 V8 Which literally had no working rear dampers. The guy with a white cap said his car was 0 to 100 mph in 11 seconds, and my car was 0 to 100 in 22 seconds. He said to me even YOU cannot make up those 11 seconds. After the stop was over we drove through Brixton towards upper tulse hill were we both stopped at a red light. The lights turned green and after 22 seconds no police car was visible to me. Literally the Policeman was utterly useless behind the wheel. LIke all the rest ive encountered over 30 years. Maybe with the exception of a Policeman Who showed me ABS at 120 mph and going around roundabouts the wrong way. Worst thing he could ever of done. I think he was called Williams. "I salute you ' literally Hundreds of policemen, of all ranks and experience in pursuits and in far superior cars, SHAT on.ELITE DRIVERS YEA RIGHT .Pull the other 1 fellas it has bells on.

    This was my manor in the 60s/70s. Had the misfortune of seeing the inside of CH nick for juvenile thieving - fine £5. My first car was a mk3 Cortina - this brings back some memories from the days before the area was ruined by mass immigration. It's now more like a town from the Indian sub-continent.

    Hmm straight six 2600 SD1's? I could of sworn the traffic plod used V8 SD1s, don't think anyone used the 2600SE's. Quite ironic in the 2300 and 2600 were bored out Triumph 2000 and 2500 both used commonly in police vehicles.

    Should bring back the traffic division in all areas because driving habits are getting a lot worse since the introduction of CCTV and speed cameras some 30years ago. When the traffic police were around you hardly seen red light jumpers. Its in epidemic portions these days.

Where as today's poor quality plastic crap tin cans that look terrible and perform like shit! At least with older cars they man run Rough nut still run and drive this modern trash 🗑 just cuts out and dies sadly plus costs a fortune to repair!!! 🥳🥳🥳😎

    So the Mini had done nothing wrong but they pulled it over for a suspected dodgy handbrake? How can they tell that on the move?! And lo and behold it does have a dodgy handbrake. Setup much? And if it's not a setup it's discrimination to pull Minis in the hope of finding a dodgy handbrake.
