Not my story, but the sort of thing KBF members can look forward to in this dystopian present. Why did more people not intervene? Afraid of catching something, or think that he must have deserved this treatment for not wearing mask? The government outline the exemptions which exist for not wearing a mask, and say that you do not require proof of exemption. Should we expect the same treatment for autistic people, companions of deaf passengers, those with COPD?

People need to investigate legalese and UCC contract law. The police are corporate entities, they are not their to protect you but to trick you into UCC contracts (usually verbally) which place you under their authority. Strawman fictitious characters are assigned to all humans at birth and most police are fully aware of the the corrupt and illegal nature of their work. While you cannot stop them assaulting you, you can school up on legalese and make it clear that you are a sovereign living human who does not require their services and has no joinder with them.
Irrespective of what anyone thinks of the mask mandate - the government have outlined exemptions, and said no evidence is necessary to prove these exemptions, so how can this happen, if the BTP are legally obliged to take someone at their word!? This is assault. And few outside this forum will care. And nothing will happen to the offending police officer, because he answers to the likes of Cressida Dick, who encouraged the nation to "shame" those who do not wear a mask (including, thereby, the disabled, the chronically ill...).
For those who are exempt it says quite clearly in the government document that it is a personal matter whether a person chooses to wear an exemption badge or not, it is not necessary in Law. Pretty clear! I am sticking to that and hope I do not come across a policemen’s as seen in the video. Medical matters have always been confidential.
For me, the worst part of all this is the fact that members of the public (masked of course 🙄) were actually helping the copper restrain the guy. It's already bad enough if police are going to start acting like this, without the masked morons joining in. I know this is only one incident but somehow it feels like a chilling hint of how bad things could get if people continue to meekly accept and believe in the covid nonsense - police overeacting more and more to non-compliance and the sheep enthusiastically assisting/egging on.
