What is the delay with VICPOL? There is the person in the blue beanie and there would have been other cameras in the vicinity and people to interview.

Antifa has claimed credit for the Bolt assault. One would imagine that fact alone should encourage senior police to want to nip the budding political violence in the bud.

This is what can be done,

I am not so sure about antifa. Someone did not like what he has been spruking about. Who got Joyce in the face with a pie.

It is a mystery isn't it, how NSW police can move quickly and decisively to identify and charge a seventy year old women who uttered something offensive on a train,

BUT,

Daniel Andrew's VICPOL, with no lesser video leads and eye witnesses and claims of responsibility from fascist left Antifa, is as quiet as a mouse, and the news hounds of The Age and the Twitterati are softy, softly, all sssshhh, too.

VICPOL has a prodigious media (spin) team and is not shy in letting them loose.
The Age is desperate for stories. But all is very quiet. Quiet where the Bolt assault is concerned at least.

I know this will come as a shock to you Leo, and a few others on this thread, and I fully understand why you would see it as an unnecessary imposition on the police, but the courts still require a silly little things called EVIDENCE before convicting anyone of a crime, even if it is a charge of assaulting one of your favorite right wingers in Bolt.
Leo when your fearless leader, the Lovely Pauline takes over, you will just have to change the law. In fact I am sure you will agree, who needs courts, when we have the coppers, and your citizens militia backing them up, out there dishing out justice, Bolt and Hanson style!

Hi Paul,

1 or 2, I' not sure :)

Yes, you're ight, evidence is crucial. I hope that those extreme-
Right-wingers who attacked Bolt are identified on CCTV up and down the street, and charged with assault, based on the evidence of the videos and photos amply available. I hope that, like all extreme-Right-wing thugs, they do time: I'm sure you would agree with me ?

Cheers,

Joe

Paul is all in favour of evidence and it does him credit, he is also in favour of evidence-based legislation.
