Dawn Butler MP calls for 'system change' after police stop

An MP has called for a"system change" after she was stopped while travelling in a car in east London.racial profiling after the stop on Sunday.

Labour MP Ms Butler told BBC Breakfast she had agreed to meet local police commanders to discuss"taking the bias out of the system". The Met said the stop was a mistake caused by an officer incorrectly entering the car's registration number.into the murder of Stephen Lawrence, which described the Met Police as"institutionally racist".The MP said institutional racism was"not about saying every single police officer is racist".

"If you see black people in a car and you assume that they are criminals there is a problem there," she said.Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the police should treat people with"fairness and equality".

Do you notice how some people see what's going on in the USA and try to follow suit? Any excuse

Perhaps the same sort of consideration by the Labour Party should be given to the Jewish community. Nobody saying sorry for that

no system change should be more powers for police to lift smart-arsed mp's and chuck them in the nick for a min 12 hours. without charge, only because they are prats.

Also since when did calling out a lying race baiting mp become racist?

50% of those in the car were white, how is this black profiling

Black people make up 3 percent of the population of England and they do not want to comply with the law applicable to the 97 percent.

Only racial profiling going on here is with the BBC every noticed that a white reporter can't be the correspondence on such topics at the BBC. With a hint of racial content BBC reaches for there ethnic diverse portfolio. SHAME ON YOU BBC

Drama Queen

The only thing that needs changing is Dawn Butler

The first thing you should consider is, how does anyone know the ethnicity of the driver of a vehicle you are following? Can you see them? No! Can you determine their gender ? No! Even with vehicles that haven’t got privacy back windows, all front seats have head rests.

MP should be sacked ! Stirring up BLM bullshit ! ....... disgraceful

Yes making false allegation should result in being barred from holding public office, there’s a system change we would vote for. Stop lying politicians

Yesterday morning BBC showed this video and the officer was on the left of the car, in the evening you showed the same video and the officer was on the right, in effect you flipped the video to change the story. Why did you flip the video to change the meaning? DawnButler

Not to worry hammy Lammy prayed for her, what a dick

Maybe One group don't get stopped more than others ,maybe that group just moan more than others

Stop whining.... if you have nothing to hide then whats the problem...

The only system that needs changing is the ‘political one’ - how this MP is still getting air time because of this is beyond a joke now!

I’m fed up to the back teeth with these Lewis Hamilton types using race as a means to get into our faces they take it away from average working class people that are really racially abused. She’s obviously trying to forward her career by using the race card.

When is someone going to stand up and tell us what we all know, black gangs are committing knife crime often related to drug crime. Black community don't seem to care that their kids are dying they seem more interested in blaming the Police. Take some responsibility for a change.

Why are the BBC alligning themselves with such reports, the reality of the story is that the Police stopped the vehicle and the MP tried to use her position to turn it into a political show. The Police Officers were doing the job we pay them to do.

She's a fake

They stopped you after putting the wrong plate number in. It was an accident and was nothing to do with anyones skin colour you wally. You're just cheapening the cases of people who have suffered real racism. People are sticking racism on everything like it's ketchup.

Why are you supporting this BS by giving her a platform to continue her antiestablishment dribble.

Not the only system that needs changing. BBC interviewer tried to argue that it may not have been racial profiling. No BBC interviewer EVER ... EVER asked ANYONE complaining of so-called 'Labour Antisemitism' if there could be another explanation for the alleged 'offence.'

As always the institutional anti white BBC gives sympathetic airtime to this sanctimonious bint. What an absolute disgrace. DefundTheBBC

Would that change involve preventing people like her from race baiting?

You lot are complicit. You know DawnButlerBrent is a fraud.

KarenRo08012406 British Public calls for Dawn Butler to resign...there, fixed your headline.

Yeah,stop searching,stop enforcement of the law,stop catching black criminals,stop jailing black criminals,stop helping black kids,stop providing safe streets,let them spread Corona freely as do as they please! Next week she will be doing defund the police placards.

BBCPolitics Dawn Butler consider Amin and East Africian Asians. Amin implemented what his predecessor has been advocating. Every race can be accused of being racist. The British police are the best in the world. Live abroad and see the way police operate elsewhere.

Driver was WHITE. Not black. She is race baiting. The BBC journalists are shite. You can't even report the facts ffs 🤦‍♂️🤬

Diddums, did this MP ask the offices to double check their records, no, wanted to make a big bl**dy fuss ON VIDEO and post it online. They have apologised, get over yourself.

Aye, we should remove video phones from mischief seekers.

How the hell does a cop get a registration plate number wrong when inserting into the National police computer. Sounds like a load of bull to me.incompetence my ass!!!!!!

If theres one thing positive to come out of this whole debacle its this... Dawn Butler is NO film maker! Shes also quite shit at characterisation!

Oh please change the rhetoric... our police are not institutionally racist... they simply can’t win these days ... good people of all colour race creed doing a truly thankless task. Unappreciated and a very very very easy target

This is bullshit .

Of course it was racial profiling. Everyone knows the negro is incapable of moving violations, incapable of operating a vehicle that might have an unsafe issue. etc. In fact, they are incapable of crime or even racism.

Change the record..

As soon as you were stopped by MP did you try to run away? Did you have your DL and Ins card if required? Did you become belligerent or degrade their official capacity. If you complied completely it turned out good. A little inconvenient maybe.

I call for her to be sacked with immediate effect 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Ps BBC - FUCK RIGHT OFF

Completely agree. Any MP who tries to race bait through lies should lose their seat.

sackdawnbutler

BBC BLACK PEOPLE LOVERS

Mariebe10098426 I have never seen a passenger so happy about been stopped by the police!!!!!

Oh please bbc .. this is nonsense. The woman is a troublemaker.

I’m none the wiser. What is that needs to be changed?

No one is above the law. Not MPs or any race.

shutupdawn

Any interest in reporting the other side of the story? The Met office wanting to release the unedited videos? No? Not race-baity enough. The BBC continues to consign itself to irrelevance.

The more stop and search the better.if it stops a knife crime,gun crime,drug deal etc.then it is one less knob head out there.colour has nothing to do with it😳

From now on never stop anyone ever and criminals should only be praised. What absolute bollocks.

I'm calling for DB to explain why there 2 different versions of her footage. One with her on the left & one of her on the right. I want to see both her & the polices full footage. If there isn't a problem we'll get to see it but I won't hold my breath.

The police will not be able to do there job for red tape bull Shit the young coppers will be bothered about the kick backs they will just turn a blind eye.

1/2 story BBC. AGAIN. When the full story is shown, but why bother.

How about they canvas the whole community to see whether they would be happy for the police to S/A/S every ethnic group equally - equal quota. See how it works for 6 months then review. Or stop completely.

Some systems she loves, promotes and takes advantage of however. She will never lose her seat...

This woman is an abhorrent excuse for an MP. She is a disgrace.

She should stop race baiting then

Race baiting at its finest

And the MSM take her lies and run with them, as usual! They didn't stop her, they stopped the driver of the car. He was WHITE. She's a race baiting, police hating liar who probably set the whole thing up. DefundTheBBC

I call for her resignation.

Why do you perpetuate her lies? She was not stopped, her friend driving was.

Perhaps all MPs should be given a motorcade with outriders, sirens and flashing lights? Or just a more modest escort with a number of jogging bodyguards?

The system change being what exactly? Quotas for stopping different groups of people? Stopped too many 21-30 year olds/white/asian/women today must get some moee 50-60 years olds/black/Cockneys to be 'proportionate'? Nah target where crime is likely to be, wherever that is.

I was stopped by a racist red light .video to follow. Where are my rights?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 did you actually watch the video,, your all plumbs the lot of you. next it'll be defund the police..

I tell you what needs to stop, black ppl shouting racism for every little thing? Your skin colour does not make you above the law. It does not give you a freedom pass to get away with things. If you were stopped there must have been a reason. White ppl get pulled over too.

Can she be sacked for wasting everyone’s time?

Hmmmmm 🤔 so if I get stopped by a black policeman do I simply say yes officer how can I assist you.. Or do I get my mobile running kick up a fuss make myself look a right twat and contact the BBC just because I'm a failed Labour MP that kneeds as much air time as I can get!

I agree let the black on black stabbings carry on and do no stop and search ! But remember not to moan

£66000 expenses theft?

Perhaps the original communications check can verify whether or not the policeman made a genuine error check when calling through the plate details. If not, then questions need to be answered.

Everything is now being considered racist, unless you are white, Asian, Chinese, Enuit, Aztec, Roman, Greek, Muslim, Egyptian, etc., etc., the racist card being applied by a certain amount of society to every simple every day thing in society. Grow up!

Stop this shite

psreklaw_p

psreklaw_p Wake up people, you are all so slowwww!

Yes change system for choosing MPS

How about she change the record.

Wow I got stopped by the police today and I’m white, disgraceful

I want to have MP status where my Police interactions are taken serious. Its popular atm to put down Policing policies and tactics but these cnuts have been abusing their powers for decades.

why dont you check her video before having her on your show, the driver was white, no racial motive, she changed the story the same as all politician and you see fit to allow her to spill her hate filled lies. shame on you bbc news

So it’s no BAMs to ever stopped again? Seems a reasonable suggestion. 😬

If police checked out the reg and would have seen it hadn’t been reported missing they why stop them?

As an MP you would have expected her to call for change before. Not just when it happens to her

dawn butler is a racist

But she compulsively lied about everything, she is a disgrace and should be removed from parliament. She wasn't driving. And the driver was white.

Firstly why was she in the car with a “friend” without a mask. Secondly, the way she treated the police officer was rude. She should resign

Misinformation BBC. Dawn Butler was NOT driving the vehicle. The driver in question was WHITE. Video footage showing the incident has been strategically mirrored to give the false impression Dawn was the driver. This is blatant misinformation utilised to serve an agenda.

The BBC give her a platform to put her side of the story but offer no-one to give a counter argument to the story. So much for balanced journalism.

Well we cant create a system whereby Police are scared to pull over someone because they are black. It would mean black drivers could do as they wish and never be victim to a spot check.

You weren’t bothered about it until it happened to you eh.

Stop giving this publicity seeking MP coverage for a non-event.

Cops pull you over for a broken light, they don’t check first to see what colour you are. It seems the more blacks that settle in UK the more they call other people racist.

Fool. The only useful change would be for her to go.

BBCPolitics We need a system change we're MPs like her who try and discredit the police should immediately sacked without any golden payments.

I'd like to see some change. I'd like to see everyone letting the police do their jobs and complying!

The police should stop more stolen cars ! And they should of searched the car and the occupants for knives, drugs and other criminal related items !

Comrades! Let us back Jussie Smollet - Sorry! - Dawn Butler - all the way in her fight against the fascist racist Nazi police, and demand equality and justice for gay giraffes everywhere.

BBCPolitics Regardless who was driving or what their skin colour may have been, the fact the car is registered in Yorkshire isn’t a good enough reason to pull someone over and doesn’t answer why they were stopped.

Why don't you do some research instead of simply parroting Labour MPs?! Dawn's been caught out, the footage is readily available on twitter, why don't you challenge her side of the story (or at least report the discrepancies)? I won't hold my breath!

Maybe solve the issue that makes individuals choose to deal drugs & trade in violence above working an 8-12 hr shift in a job. When your dumb, uneducated and lazy making several thousand £ a day is a more attractive than wearing a McDonalds uniform for min wage until retirement.

what HAS happened to the MET. Police ? a} their NOT ACCUSING Ms B. of SMELLING of CANNABIS b} their NOT SMASING her CAR WINDOW c} their NOT DRAGGING HER THROUGH the BROKEN GLASS of the WINDOW d} their NOT deploying at least one LONG HANDLED BATTON to......

Stop and search of black people is just 15% successful. They need to have evidence of wrongdoing before stopping and searching. Otherwise it is an infringement of people's rights to go about their lawful business.

Hey Dawn Butler - SHUT UP. I Have had enough of shit BLM! 🤬🤬

She needs some salt for that huge chip on her shoulder

She means, Police not allowed to stop anyone if they are black, regardless of what they may be about to do. Give them free reign to murder innocents. 😡 She needs to resign, she is not fit to be in our HoC.

What an embarrassment Butler is

Boring - the glee on her face when they got pulled and then the fact the black driver/light skinned/white face was intentionally blurred to cause more uproar is all she wanted. Her hand gestures are annoying as she is - what an attention seeker 🤮

Ffs, every time a black person gets stopped it’s all over the news complaining about racism, well blacks are not the only ones who get stopped, whites do as well but they don’t start kicking off, grow up

And maybe two high top police commissioners one white and one black it's might just be what it needs in the police force now

As long as Dawn Butler is in the Labour Party then the Labour Party can never win power. She is Jeremy Corbyn but even more so. Of course, the BBC LOVE her! sackdawnbutler DefundTheBBC

Maybe there should be 50 percent of white police officers and 50 percent of black officers and both should be paired up together and work together at all the times this might help

Did the police know her race before they pulled the car over?

😴😴😴

This is a nonsense story, reported by a nonsense MP, by a nonsense news corporation.

Calm down DawnButlerBrent Nothings happened to you......as much as you’d love it to have, it didn’t. It was a routine stop. You’re trying to make it an incident.....it wasn’t. Do something useful love.

I got stopped because I'm a Leeds fan, police wanted to know, dont you know pump it up FreeBenWhite

The public should call for her to be sacked

How about her attitude changing.

If you can’t see the ‘Made for TV’ signs in this, I got a bridge to sell you.

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

sshhhh 🤫

White people need to stop being so sensitive about being accused of racism. Just because DawnButlerBrent was a passenger and the driver was white doesn't mean the white police officer didn't conduct a racially-motivated traffic stop. After all, whites *are* inherently bigoted.

BBShit still digging it's own grave I see.

Perhaps the WHITE driver should give us his version?

wow millions of white brits are now f**ked over this coronavirus BS NWO saga quite a few are not being treated on the NHS & all you want to talk about is a black woman who altered a video she was not even driving the f**king car f**k the BBC f**k BlackLivesMatter

Why are you continuing to support this charade You're making me think that it may be time to DefundTheBBC Dawn Butler is a race baiting liar, that's the real story here! sackdawnbutler

Move on...

Expenses change too perhaps? £66,000 she conned the taxpayer out of wasn't it?

Won't it just be a license for gang members of non-white races to carry weapons, drugs etc if they know they will never be stopped? Therefore actually increasing the amount of gang violence among those races and actually causing more death and injury within those races.

As honest as her expense claims?

I just get the impression that Dawn Butler is chuffed to bits that this has happened.

She is just trying to make a name for herself. The usual politicians ploy.

I agree Get rid of MPs

What does she suggest, segregation?

No what police have to do now Is pre-arrange any police stop 36 hours in advance, Also the prearranged email has to be in rainbow coloured font and brail as to not offend anyone ever

Policing can only be successful on a small scale and it is the fault of previous governments that has allowed the force to grow so large. Police and non-police communities are different species in the 21st Century.

What’s all this noise about DawnButlerBrent and her white friend who was driving a car being pulled over? Who cares? Why is make it about race? Police doing their job. The end. It’s attention seeking nonsense. mondaythoughts ThisMorning sackdawnbutler

If she'd shut up for one minute she might have found out why they were stopped, but I suppose if the police officer had told her to shut up that would have been wrong as well.cant win can we !!!

Without pointing fingers or implying anything, I think your stop and search data is incomplete. The full picture should include how many offences per stop have been identified as a result of those stops. This should tell you if the trend it's justified.

Now let me guess?drumming up.votes no doubt

What about her lies first.

I just don’t get why she had to record it all and have camera ready publicity maybe it’s a bit sad the policeman as far as I could see didn’t get a chance to say anything all about me me me

You are the BBC. For God's sake challenge her on her story. That's what we pay the licence fee for. Get off your knees and earn your money.

Don't understand. What system?

I can’t imagine why people are tweeting sackdawnbutler ? It’s probably institutional racism. The choice to sackdawnbutler is up to her constituents.

Sack her. She is trying to be divisive.

Why doesn't the BBC post her video which shows the driver? Guess it would be an inconvenient truth about the driver.

Sorry, if i drove a bentley in kensington and chelsea being a white male and i get stopped, Can i pull the same racist card? or is racism a one way street?..

Basically just wants the police to ignore any criminality involving blacks.

Did you notice she did not mention that the driver was white, Keep saying how he gets stopped loads of times because of out of town plates. She played on it loads & loads making out it was someone Black driving

You are misrepresenting the facts here. The driver was a white male. The whole artical is race-baiting bollocks and crap like this needs to stop.

A number in the thread are contesting facts outlined by the MP as the Driver of the car May have been white. The video at least intimates that the driver was very light skinned hence negating the allegation of the MP this Stop was Racial profiling. PStandards need2investigate

Lots of white people are stopped but they don't make a song and dance about. Oh!. Bias Broadcasting Company that explains things.

Why stop anybody unless you have very good solid reason for doing it. Not some weak lolly liveried hunch that you might not have an MOT etc

Rachael_Swindon VoiceBritannia TomLondon6 LondonEconomic You can TALK👉 TonyHallBBCDG Your Organisation is a Vile Organisation BBC director-general Tony Hall WAS FORCED to apologise for RACIAL SLUR in report 👉DawnButler 👉DJSideman

Had she been stopped by a black police officer..... her reaction would have been _________________ ?

The only change she wants is for the BAME community to be immune from prosecution

The voting public call for system changes to bbc and other msm giving this liar a platform to do her race baiting and attempt to incite hatred against the police. She wasnt pulled over at all, she was a passenger of a pale skinned aka white driver who was pulled over.

I’m calling for the odious woman to get the boot. Corrupt lady😡👍

DawnButler... “Do you know who I am?” Police Officer... “‘Ere Sarge, there’s a women here that doesn’t know who she is!” DawnButler

Ramp up stop and search. Regardless of colour of course.

The BBC is a fake news outlet at this point. Embarrassing.

Of course she could do something useful with her black privilege and focus on the critical issue of black on black knife crime but that would mean being an MP.

Yes her system change would be. Any person of colour is exempt from any police stop and search even if they are committing any crime. Just stop all the white people even if they are abiding by the law. DawnButlerBrent is a RACIST!!

It’s all about her, it’s all about her ‘action’ in being seen to get things done

The Oxford Street and Hackney stabbings are the reasons for stop and search.

I get her issue but branding the whole met is not right. Hackney is 4th most crime ridden borough and police have made it clear they are cracking down. 36% population is white British 46% bame so stops are going to be high on bame groups. It also helps not to to be defensive.

Meanwhile in the real world.......a young black boy was stabbed to death in Oxford St If the suspect is a young black person shall we ignore the crime as the suspect may allege that he was being pursued by the 'racist' police?

I call for mp's to lying and race baiting.

We need system change in the Labour Party. Get rid of these cranks

No words 😶!!

Why not tell the full story Dawn? Were you inebriated?

One would think as an MP she would be applauding the work being done by the police during such trying times. 🤔

By her own mouth...”I don’t know why they checked the number plate...all I know is I’m black...” The implication of what she said is if the police stop or check a black person, she assumes it’s because they’re racist until they prove otherwise.

How about the racial and religious intolerance within the Labour party. Deal with that first then I'd have a bit more respect for what you're saying.

It's wrong to get pulled over for no reason I think there should be more black officers see what happens then maybe it will be better I guess time would tell .. if they might pick on white people .. it all has to change and the top officer in the police officer should step down

How about her calling for gangs to stop stabbing each other.

What are peoples issues if you have nothing to hide why bot appreciate and help the good work the police do and let them do it no matter what race religion or belief you are or have none of us are more important than the other and if it saves1 life they can pull me over every day

BBCPolitics To start with Cressida Dick must step down. She is turning a blind eye and condoning the actions of her racist force. She is culpable. We have a racist Government, so presumably the police force thinks that they can get away with racist behaviour.

Can the BBC please provide me with a breakdown of the ethnicity of murder victims within the capital in order for me to come to a balanced judgement as to the value of stop and search! DefundTheBBC

The police are becoming paranoid about doing anything until people like her with her political agenda turn us into a lawless state for fear of upsetting DawnButlerBrent should know better asan “MP” there are better eYs and you have the vehicle not Twitter and videos

BBC, you're as bad as she is.

Fuck off Dawn 🙄 shewasntevendriving

Has to be labour MPs they don't like stop and search

Keir_Starmer she needs to be sacked

DawnButlerBrent needs to realise that she is a race waiter and she needs to wind her neck in

Police bodycam will prove it.. lets have it!!

Perhaps you should have done a BBC fact check

She's a liar. Just like she lied on her expenses. The driver was white and she mirrored the video to make it look like she was driving. It doesn't matter if the driver identifies as black, for him to be racially profiled, he first has to look black. He looks white.

Are you going to invite her on news again to retract her hoax racial profiling allegation. Coz full video is out now. Her friend driving was white not black as she claimed. As can be seen in her own video.

Y A W N

I thought that she was the passenger & the driver looked white?

Why not call for her fellow ethnic followers to stop committing 51% of crimes despite representing only 13% of the population?

So why can't this be seen as person error as in they had the wrong reg number, why MAKE this into something it isn't?

What did the Driver think

No need

Didn’t realise you were a specialist on crime prevention methodology.

How about her stepping down from government...silly woman.

Am i correct in saying the reg number was imputed incorrectly leading them to believe the vehicle had cloned plates or something like that?

BBCwebsite Please correct the article - it says the driver is black, which is clearly not the case from Dawn's video.

Ok, Police will no longer investigate crime committed by, stop, search, or arrest black yoof. No proactive patrols in areas of high black crime. Just let them get on with it and wait for the howls of protest from the likes of Bigot Butler ect as the stab and shooting fest ⬆️

She’s not trying to maximise this is she 😂😂😂

Am I right in thinking that a white man was driving the car? If that was the case, what is she ranting about?

One subject MP, Race Race Race. She must have been ecstatic when they got pulled over. Bit stupid of the Police really.

She needs to resign

The change is to eradicate this woman as MP. Racist and bigoted people have no place in our Parliament

The only system change needed is get rid of sky and bbc for tryi g to push this non event DefundTheBBC DefundTheMedia

If 78% of 'street crime' is committed by blacks 78% of random stops should be on them. To you 'racial profiling', to non bigots, mathematical profiling.

The danger of all this is, there will come a time when the police would scared to stop suspects who are black. She was not driving the car, she quickly got her phone on video mode, did all the talking and did not give the policeman who looked very calm, a chance to speak.

😂😂😂😂 have a lay down.

Why are you constantly trying to further divide us ?

She should be charged with lying while holding a public office.

What a pity the Windrush had ever arrived. Imagine how so much more peaceful, Britain would be.

It is a known fact unfortunately, that the Police Forces are institutionally racist. It is against all policy of the forces to be so, forces wide, but it's rather individual officers than the regime. They still have to a degree the 'armed services' old boy mentality, sadly.

BBCPolitics institutionalracism Nice car: Fine Black person: Hmmmm.... Black person in nice car:

sackdawnbutler

Man, this ratio. Lamestream media and the like are so detached from the mood of the public. The relentless manufactured grievance and victimology are just tiresome Yes racism can raise its ugly head but let's deal with it when it is *actual* racism Otherwise, no one will care

Doesn’t she represent a party in turmoil over their anti Semitic views and racism.

Blacks to be above the law........and no black arrested for any crime. Is that what she means As an MP she should have and one would have expected her to FULLY COOPERATE with the police, as opposed to acting the way she did.

So Police can’t do their jobs anymore by stopping and talking to people anymore. The only person making an issue is this MP who obviously has her own “PREJUDICES” against the police.. and making it a racial matter and stir up hatred.

BBCPolitics What the hell do you mean system change why don’t you write you own rules

Not a victim. She’s a piss taker. Someone should let her know. No one will though. Reason: fear of cancel culture. So; Butlers true race is, victim. They are a growing culture mostly because, it’s highly rewarding and takes little effort.

Poor thing.. she spends hours going in circles to be a bite and then moans about it... Hackney is famous for these sort of beings... starting with HackneyAbbott and ending in this trash being... Great the taxpayer pays for her car and, eventually, for her legal fees too

Just abusing her position as a MP, should have a enquiry into that.

Race relations are deteriorating rapidly, and it's being driven by the left's own Marxist agenda.

Why are people here so against equality? How would they feel if constantly stopped by police for no reason? Why are people inventing that the driver was white? She isn't asking for white people to be stopped instead. Solidarity costs nothing.

While everyone else calls for her resignation! 👍🏻😂😂😂

Why are you still running this story complete with all the inaccuracies? She wasn't driving. The car wasn't stopped because she was in it. Police can stop any vehicle on a road, they don't need suspicion or a reason. mediascum

👎and she’s in parliament? Should show a example you didn’t do bad working in parliament , or am I missing something ?

BBCPolitics She must go. One thing she is right about the Labour Party system needs to change.

Here we go again

After she was a passenger in a car where the driver wasn't wearing a seatbelt.

Dawn claims she recorded the entire event. She must download the original file immediately to clarify matters. I noticed the man wasn’t wearing his seatbelt in the short clip, presumably he removed it after stopping I look forward to this public servant doing her civil duty.

Her video CLEARLY shows the driver was white... so why do you report that he was 'also black'. Or is truth less important than your desperate narrative?

Maybe the BBC needs to ask why Keir_Starmer hasn’t mentioned this? Maybe because he knows it’s a load off bullshit.

She means the criminal justice system. She wants parts of the populace to be beyond criticism and the law.

Except the driver was white “He’s not white. He just appears white in the video because he’s pale skinned.” “Ok, if he appears white in the video would he not have appeared white to the police thereby refuting the claim they were stopped for being 2 black people dr-“ “Racist!”

blackpeoplecrywolf nobody cares

Can the bbc report facts please ?

If she ask her peoples to stopping committing crime in hugely disproportionate numbers she might find police stop them less. You notice how Chinese don’t appear to be ‘systemically’ targeted...

Basically she is not part of a party in power. Just trying to make a name for herself. Causing trouble. Creating further divisions. Awful lady

She mirrored imaged the video to make it appear that she was the driver. Clearly evidenced by the reflection in her sunglasses and the reversed writing on the wall behind the copper.

I see that the aspiring mayor of London had a massive go at you for speaking out about this. Let’s be clear, the Labour Party and Dawn are arguing for the importance of a well trained police force that are properly funded. That’s what creates trust and stability!

Systematic victimhood is the biggest problem here

IM White and have been stopped by both black and wite officers many times and after giveing answers have gone on my way,get use to it its part of their job Grow Up

What system would she change, the system of having a proactive police force working to minimise crime?

She wasn’t driving so she didn’t get pulled over at all

Even the mighty BBC has fallen for Butler's fantasy (quelle suprise). She wasn't stopped, the driver of the car was stopped who looks awfully white. Fake news.

Apparently a white person driving and they switched the video to make it look like Dawn was driving. Which is why she never says she was driving just in the car that she was in.

Her and her mentality is a major part of what is wrong with the world. 'Everything must be cos of my minority!' The DRIVER is so light skinned there's no way the police would have been able to pick up on any 'blackness' from inside the car. Regardless of what he identifies as.

She was not driving the car

Attention seeker

She needs to go !! Sharpish, a disgrace to this country.

Great reporting BBC. Your accuracy and standards are nearly as low as the Goverment !!

The only system change we need is to hold lying MP'S to account for their actions and bar them from office.

OhHhhh I give up with this nonsense! What do you want? For black people to be immune from being pulled over? Or.. every cop to be black? Or.. what? Everyone thinks everythings racist!

What would she preferred? No people of BAME to be stopped ever?!?

Yep a system change is definitely needed, police need to start telling the truth about who and what they deal with on a daily basis instead of hiding it to play the game

If there was a drug or knife crime problem in our area, I’d expect the police to do something about it, I’d also expect the “community” to help them get rid of it. If this involved stop and question, fair enough, I’d cooperate fully however often, as most sensible people would.

She wasnt stopped. The white Male driver was. Mountain out of a mole hill. Pathetic woman.

It was a set up

She's right, there needs to be a 'system change', MPs shouldn't have IQs in single digits.

Public call for MP change after despicable behaviour towards Police, lack of humility, understanding when apologised too and for clear display of arrogance and discriminative narrative prejudicing a group of society.

I think you'll find the police stoped a vehicle, not the occupants. It's a small detail but quite important. You stop the vehicle, then you discover who the occupants are. PNC has vehicle and owner details. These are not necessarily driver details.

So the police get a phone call saying a car with a black person was speeding but doesn't know the reg of the car, police have the right to stop any car and chat to any black person because the have to do checks fucking do my head in with these blm snowflakes

.time to reform police working rather than dismissing bad experiences, including racist experiences, in one way or the other

DawnButlerBrent I was also stopped by the police while driving. They were checking for drivers who may have been drinking/taking drugs. In the area I live it’s likely that would be a white male. Was I profiled? Should I have complained?

if ur white and about to comment: don’t

And of course bbc is on her side. What is wrong with bbc

BLMmarxists

The police's stated reason for the stop was 'The car was from Yorkshire', then when they found an occupant was an MP they discovered it wasn't.... when was driving from Yorkshire to London a crime?

BBCPolitics Was she driving? Her video tried showing that she was.

Police do stop white people too, can we scream racism when we get stopped too please

Bring down the Redwall ..... Full investigation required!!!!!

BAND WAGON comes to mind!

Black people profile white people all of the time This last couple of months have proved black racism is alive and growing

Oh my god the police stopped a car its the end of the world as we know it...lets have mass protests lets get rid of the establishment,get real there are far bigger issues in the world that some one self promoting that they got stopped by a police officer

This is a new low from a LabourPlanks Disgrace Taken the mantle from DavidLammy ? The police have a hard enough Job , I,ve been stopped numerous times by Police in my cars over the years. Big deal be polite , answer questions , move on. Police have a tough enough Job !

DawnButler Calls for attention. racebaiter sackdawnbutler

In the future all black people will be an MLK/Malcolm X figure for 15 minutes.

BBCPolitics Of course she does. Never misses a chance to stir up racial unrest. She's a self-publicising oxygen thief. Absolutely toxic.

The Police did nothing wrong. Fed up with people using social media to incite hatred and disrespect of the Police. Welcome to stop and question me any time because I want them to have the freedom to apprehend criminals without fear of biased accusations.

Yes we need to get rid of racist labour MPs

More race bating from corbynite nut job. We must see police bodycam footage urgently.

BBCPolitics Dawn butler has a lot to say I challenge her to go to parliament and get MPs to make a law where every person in Britain who have been accused of racism can take there accusers to court now dawn either act on this or shut your hole about the MET 👮‍♀️

Yes we need a system where no race or religion is above the law.

STOP THIS RACE BAITING Dawn Butler thought she could fool us into believing she was the driver of the car

Maybe she should concentrate on doing her job and dealing with the very high amounts of serious crime and homelessness in her constituency. Suppose that doesn’t fit her agenda and doesn’t provide her 15 mins of fame.

Ah yes, she's after more protection from the police for drug dealers, like her son. Business must be struggling in lockdown, after all. Gotta show solidarity with the bruvvas, right?

She released a reversed image video to make it look like she was in the driving seat. The driver may indeed be black - but close up he is very very light skinned - so how can she claim the police racially profiled him from a distance and through two sets of windscreen glass?

BBCPolitics Is the BBC looking into the way the video has been cynically edited? Or will social media have to do the job for them? If a Conservative MP had done the same thing there would have been a clamour for the MP's resignation and if course a whole different slant to the reporting.

Total load of rubbish. Seen the video and the police behave totally professionally. She is the one playing the 'race card'. She should be ashamed, but somehow, I don't think she ever would be.

BBCPolitics When will the unedited footage be released?

Maybe next time she should be driving the car then complain

What we need, right now, is the body cam footage to be released of the officers. They want it released, so release it! Otherwise, the officers should sue for defamation, and ensure the body cam footage is requested in court.

Everybody should be equal no matter Colour , Creed or Religion. We should all be able to live side by side in peace and harmony. Sometimes especially on social media, things can often be interpreted in certain ways. I thought the Bobby was friendly . hope I haven't offended 🙏

Why is the PRESS even entertaining this arrogant woman?

She is just trying to stir up more hatred for the Police..stop giving her the exposure she so obviously craves.

How is it racial profiling the driver is what’re and passenger black?

The System doesn't need Changing, it's the MPs that need changing.

Yes, we need to get rid of 'race card' MP's who know nothing of policing and wouldn't last a day on the streets DawnButlerBrent racist ukabourscum

Guy driving the car was white

I just went to the supermarket by bus. I was 1 of 5 on a 129 capacity bus. 3 black girls got on...no face coverings. 1 sat a few seats in front of me. 2 sat right in front of another girl. Totally unacceptable. But if something was said, would they be accused of racism? scotgov

Call for dawn butler to be sacked for inciting racism,

The driver of the car was stopped. He was a white male. ScumMedia

Fuck the police coming straight from the underground a young Nigga got it bad coz I’m brown

sackdawnbutler she’s a liar

Trust in our politicians is fading fast and people like her are making it even worse...

You mean the police can no longer stop a car that's flagged up on their system?

Let’s stop all traffic stops, all stop and search and all preventative activity... but we will need to give decent citizens a chance to evacuate first? Before leaving inside the M25 to lawlessness?

BagalueSunab So if you’re black, drive a BMW & the passenger also black, police pull you over on suspicion such people cannot be legitimate owners of such a vehicle. BlackLivesMatter DawnButlerBrent UKPolitics UKPolice

The whole BLM thing is last months news... give it a rest. We learned that most people aren’t racist and the ones that are racist are dealt with.

Profiling is profiling, most of us don't have an issue with that. If I get stopped driving my car I won't be offended at all. There again, I'm not racist, nor anti-police.

As the Who would say, why don’t you all fffffade away, and get a life

DawnButlerBrent drove around for hours LOOKING for stop & search sites. She’s saying SHE was targeted as a black woman. A WHITE MAN WAS DRIVING! Then first thing she does is inform media. What’s he agenda here! She abusing her position as MP. PLS REPORT HER TO Parliament I have

Big news Police stop white driver, oh no it’s not! She was passenger. She lied about driver being black too. She’s a disgrace. How much did she nick on expenses?

BBCPolitics Number plates are racist

So what your saying is 99.99% of people the police pull over are black, GROW UP ,SHOULDN'T BE AN MP,TROUBLE CAUSER metpoliceuk

I doubt that she could spell it

She lied

Dawn Butler obviously needed a bit of publicity. I hadn't even heard of her before this incident!

System change in what way? Police not allowed to pull vehicles over if they have a black person inside? Lunacy.

Why does she think she’s above the law and better than everyone else?

Think the number plate was BLM.stay the fuckaway2020

Why is she angry with the police? It isn't their fault that black people disproportionately break the law and require disproportionate policing. Put the blame where it belongs.

Hopefully that system change involves increasing police funding Allowing body cam footage to be released for high profile cases Investment into better equipment and training Better mental health care for officers And a better retention scheme

Maybe the MP could put some context into the event surrounding her being stopped i.e. what crimes had been committed in the area in the last 24 hours, who the police were looking for in connection to them... What those officers involvement was in the investigation to the crimes

She said 15% of black people are arrested after stop and search so the system isn't working, what is the percentage of other colours arrested after s&s?

Meanwhile in Hackney...

DawnButlerBrent agree system change, let restructure parliament cut back amount of MP's, who are a drain on our country and are just in power for their own gains. I COULD NOT AGREE MORE WITH CHANGING SYSTEM.
