this is the 25th anniversary of the Brixton riots, I wonder if one reason for this op was merely a show of strength to show that the cops are in control?
it shows though how much even licensed party venues are despised by wider society – even the naming of CO14 as the “Clubs and Vice” unit..
imagine if operation Trident was called the “Blacks and Crime” unit, there would be an (understandable) outcry…
