Is this two-tier policing?
The Metropolitan Police have decided not to use real-time facial recognition technology on today's 'Unite The Kingdom' Rightest march in London....
So, the Q.s here are: will they be using the tech retrospectively on the marchers?
Are they concerned the live-tech will be swamped by the number it would pick up?
Do they regard a march organised by Tommy Robinson (Stephen Yaxley-Lennon_ as less dangerous than other marches?
