THE ORIGIN OF THIS ARTICLE ....
People in the United Kingdom expect standards and protocols to be upheld, but can be so petty at times as to take your breath away with the triviality of their "concerns" or complaints, but in this case I expect this officer to be dismissed following his abuse of a person already prone and acquiescent at Manchester airport.
The "victim" may well have behaved terribly prior to these scenes (aggression in baggage hall with other passengers from their incoming flight QR023 from Qatar), for no bystanders seems willing to step-into the fray to defend him, yet what you see here is, to my mind, an officer venting his anger at what had presumably gone before. He lost control of himself and behaved like a thug. Whatever triggered that officer could have killed someone, for a booted kick to the head with a stamp are not always inconsequential.
I defend UK police, for they are often between a rock and a hard place, but this appears to be someone who should (re)join a para-military group, the army, or take up a cage fighting career.
This is not acceptable policing!
THE FOLLOWING DAY ....
Obviously, the "family" has appointed legal representation, just in case there's profit to be had, then called for "calm in the (racial) communities" which will keep their article hot, but we have learned there is more to this story than the footage that was selectively released, for there was indeed a serous altercation (officer hospitalised with broken nose) involving third parties and the victim. The BBC gathered more details, indicating police were called to an ongoing incident, possibly involving theft, which also shows the overly assertive officer roughly handling another person in their group. The officer had obviously reached the end of his tether with this incident and issued his lesson in induced aggression. I still believe he should, at least, be removed from a public facing role as he has been suspended pending a criminal investigation of his action(s).
THE TRUTH IS OUT ....
As with many "sensational" media pieces we must be sceptical about what is and what is not being shown. In this case the 2 "victims" in the first video turn out to be the instigators of their own suffering. In common parlance they got what they deserved. Muhammed Fahir Amaaz (head kick) and Amaad Amaaz (fat lump) both attacked police officers and were happy to dish-out their feral violence, but (obviously) their family were not happy with the corrective therapy that followed their fun; they have though lowered their public indignation level by sacking their original "legal" representative, allowing a new damage limitation representative to say the family, "had real concern for any police officer injured".
The thing is, police are (mostly) people and not monsters, so if you smash them in the face they naturally want to respond; but training and the uniform stops this. Usually!
I still believe the "offending" officer's behaviour was unacceptable (for one wearing the uniform), but his treatment of his attackers is understandable in the context of this incident and an extended period away from the "front line" would be good. Soldiers are granted R&R so why not overstressed police officers?

THE INEVITABLE AFTERMATH ....
A second officer at this incident has been suspended (reason unknown) and the two instigators of the police response to their original assaults have now submitted assault complaints against the Manchester police force. They have their new parasitic legal representative valiantly implying that the police are not allowed to defend themselves against sustained and serious assaults upon themselves. The hubris in their complaint is breath-taking in the light of the video evidence of them "kicking-off" for reasons as yet unknown. Sky News seem to have the best information.

THEIR COURT CASE ....
The two angels in their dressing up clothes pleaded not guilty! Setting aside the thought everyone in a more real world than theirs thinks they are, the actual recorded evidence against them suggests they are deluded. I think they are taking the piss as they can't take the thought of what they truly are.
