More that he is potentially a tool to justify banning of anti-fascist speech, eventual Marshall Law and suspension of mid-term elections due to national emergency. @lewisgoodall.com Substack really good on this story and UK.

Come see one of them being presented at National EBP conference 10 and 11 September, University of Huddersfield. Police policy has moved to a “better” tool already (DARA). Mainly just partner agencies using DASH. Which is not confusing or inefficient at all. No, sir.

Thanks for sharing, Matt. Do you know who wrote it by any chance? Can’t see an author.

Dr Matt Bland @mattbland.bsky.social · 18/08/2025

Research community has been banging this drum since 2011. Article misses a number of important facts - including DARA (which remains unevaluated for predictive utility, at least in terms of publicly available material).

300% rise in community intelligence = more community confidence? What was community intelligence level before? (Not questions for you @wiggett-ie.bsky.social - thanks for sharing this).

The denominator in this statistic (resident pion) is highly flawed. No viable alternative but flawed is flawed. Could at least publish percentage of stops not on residents?

Either way I’d like Gladiator 3 to be solely about the adventures of the people tasked with capturing and transporting half a dozen man-eating sharks to Rome.

Dr Matt Bland @mattbland.bsky.social · 04/12/2024

Saw Gladiator 2. Have some questions: 1. How did they transport the sharks to the colosseum? 2. While they were filling the colosseum with (salt?) water, what did they do with the sharks? 3. After that day’s shenanigans were done, did they just let the plug out and everyone ate shark for weeks?
