Which perpetrator was that ?

If it was the Golders Green attacker , he launched a frenzied attack on two men
One was 76 the other 33 .
They were both very seriously injured .

If this is the one you are referring too he was already known to the police .
Personally I think  the police should have shot him dead .
It would have saved the tax payer a lot of money and he would not attack anyone else ever again.
It might also give any other would be attackers pause for thought .

I can understand why people get confused by tech gadgets.

Take my video doorbell. When it detects somebody approaching and me going out come to that it plays a notification tone on my phone.

For no obvious reason the notification tone has changed and it sounds a bit like an ice cream van. The first time it did that I was looking round for one til I realised it was the phone.
Did I change it?
No not to my recollection.
Would I ever bother to select a special tone?
Well maybe as with one doorbell I set it to a barking dog but a bloody ice cream van?

My nephew and his wife have been here this morning for a chin-wag.
It's a lovely day, wall to wall sunshine and blue skies.

I was shocked to see the video on TV of the police treatment of 
the perpetrator, who had already been tasered and was on the ground.
It was wrong. 

I know nothing about the Green Party, but in this case, the chap was correct.
This is England, not the USA.

Good  afternoon on this glorious sunny day.    Luv it.  

I have found some old paperwork I had which is called  Brandt-Daroff Exercises.
I also googled whether there is a difference between Epley and Brandt-Daroff,  and it said there is.

Apparently Epley is usually done by a practitioner to move the crystals there and then,   while the B.D. ones are for the patient themself to do on repeat.   Something about it retrains the brain after long term dizziness.   Once the Epley is done by a specialist,  we can then carry on with the B.D. ones ourselves at home.

I will do some more research first,  as I am scared incase I make it even worse.
Thanks for your input Ruthio and Muddy.  

Quote from: muddy on Today at 08:19:32 AMBut what to do?

Shop lifting is no longer considered a crime .

Barging through ticket gates at railway stations  is no longer a crime .

( yet my friend with a legitimate ticket that cost her over a £100 was harassed by inspectors at Paddington . She is 75 and 5 ft 2 " so was fair game ) eventually a supervisor was called who confirmed that her ticket was valid .

Noisy phone calls in the quiet carriage on these trains is ok too  there are no inspectors so anything goes .

( why because it costs more to take the wrongdoers to court that let them off - and the criminals  know it. .)

Fly tipping is rife and litter dropping is widespread

I was brought up to believe dropping litter was wrong  aren't children taught  this any more ?

 ( God forbid if you complain you are a Karen ! )

What to do?  Exactly!
There is little or nothing we can do when the authorities and the police choose the soft option of not doing their jobs.
A wholesale change needs to be made to how this country is run.  Imprisonment is avoided so oftern, no doubt because our prisons are full.  There are answers to this, though.  Prisons seem to be organised in the hope of persuading criminals to change by, for example, nice words, skills training and education.  What seems to be lacking is deterrence.  Punishments should be far more severe: living conditions, behaviour, and appropriate punishments inside.  We could build more prisons, but my preference is to cram them in and let them live in crowded cells... and forget the training courses, etc.

And I will clip Klondie round the ear when I've finished my cup of tea.   

The danger is that as well as attracting Islamists they are attracting the disillusioned Marxists from the Labour party. The Greens have always been more Marxist than Green but now that they have been hi-jacked by Islamists they will start gaining seats in some ghetto areas. The Labour portion  will increase the number of seats if that continues. I can't see them gaining enough to be a real threat. YET.
