2020-06-13 | Backlash as police warned of trouble if they refuse to take the knee at Black Lives Matter protests | Daily Mail Online
'Hertfordshire Constabulary said those who chose not to make the solidarity gesture ‘may become the focus of the protesters’ attention’. '
'Hertfordshire Police faced criticism of its handling of a Black Lives Matter protest in the town of Hoddesdon last week where hecklers cut short a peaceful demonstration by yelling racist abuse. '
'A police force has angered officers by warning that they may face consequences if they decline to ‘take the knee’ at anti-racism protests. '
'The advice was issued during a recent operational briefing and points out that, when officers kneel down – joining in the symbolic stance of the Black Lives Matter movement – it ‘has a very positive reaction on the protest groups’. '
'Alan Pughsley, the Chief Constable of Kent, is believed to be the first top-ranking officer to make the gesture since protests began. '

This is ridiculous, our police shouldn’t be kneeling to anyone.
