I'll blow my own trumpet then. Thought it all looked very dodgy from the start, sadly the BBC and many others treat video evidence as reliable, it's trivially easy to doctor these days.The evidence is a blurry short video, in which the bike and police van are not in the same shot.
I'd hold fire on your assertion that this is proof of anything, anyone with no experience or specialist software could pretty easily edit together two videos from different times. I could make a video of Jesus walking through London with a timestamp of next week using a free website if I wanted to, the days of video being unquestionable evidence were lots of years ago now.
The police have re-asserted that the van wasn't there. It may be best to hold back and see what they say about the video, it's probably being examined frame-by-frame looking for the signs of edits.
They may also be able to get an injunction to get the original video directly from its source (e.g. Ring doorbells). This may take some time.
What was dodgy about it? The police admitted the van was following the scooter at that point?Thought it all looked very dodgy from the start, sadly the BBC and many others treat video evidence as reliable
Have you been on the sauce yourself, vinty? Probably the most reliable news source on planet earth.BBC is not a reliable source.
Bit of doubt there, anybody in mind who could be number one?Have you been on the sauce yourself, vinty? Probably the most reliable news source on planet earth.
Can you name a better reliable source?Bit of doubt there, anybody in mind who could be number one?
Thought it was more a question of who's best of a bad bunch.Can you name a better reliable source?
You never reveal your sources. Just wondered where I should be lookingThought it was more a question of who's best of a bad bunch.
Thought you might have come up with that rather than target me whereby my answer would be obvious given my posting history.
