Police said 209 arrests had been made by early Tuesday, including 46 for assault, 36 for possession of drugs, 33 for possession of an offensive weapon, 27 public order offences and eight sexual assaults.

A total of 441 people were stopped and searched across the two days.

Some 74 officers were injured across the two days, many a result of incidents involving assaults.

The force also paid tribute to one of its most experienced and "affectionate" horses that died after collapsing while on duty at the carnival on Sunday.

Police Horse Sandown, a 14-year-old chestnut gelding, had policed "all types of events" across London during his seven years of service since being presented to the force in 2015.

What I find disturbing in UK, is that cops still get along with the woke garbage after all that, and this above is just an episode, a side show compared to the "Asian gang rape" affair for instance... https://vid8.poal.co/user/0k_/zzjhveb

The political/social pressure must be immense, it's beyond comprehension

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochdale_child_sex_abuse_ring

The Rochdale child sex abuse ring involved underage teenage girls in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, England. Nine men were convicted of sex trafficking and other offences including rape, trafficking girls for sex and conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with a child in May 2012. This resulted in Greater Manchester Police launching Operation Doublet to investigate further claims of abuse with 19 men so far being convicted.[1] Forty-seven girls were identified as victims of child sexual exploitation during the police investigation.[2][3][4] In 2014, the Jay report estimated that at least 1,400 children were abused by the ring between 1997 and 2013.[5] The men were British Pakistanis, which led to discussion on whether the failure to investigate them was linked to the authorities' fear of being accused of racial prejudice.[6] The girls were mainly White British.[6]

In March 2015, Greater Manchester Police apologised for its failure to investigate the child sexual exploitation allegations more thoroughly between 2008 and 2010.[7] Sara Rowbotham, the sexual health worker who first recognised patterns of child abuse in the community and fought to bring these crimes to police attention, was made redundant in 2014.[8] A former Detective Constable who was investigating the grooming gangs, Margaret Oliver, resigned in 2012 in disgust of the handling of the cases by the police force and spoke out as a whistleblower to inform the public.[citation needed]
