Three minutes after ten is the time. A very good morning indeed to you. I hope you're well.

We'll return to that story about the schoolgirl being stripped-searched a little later in the

programme. You can probably tell from my voice, I'm sort of, I haven't got the words yet to express my

thoughts and feelings about it. I did hear call it towards the end of Nick's show that. I'm reminding us all

really why some stories really do

need trigger warnings. Some stories contain

details and events that others will find

profoundly traumatic in the context of flashbacks and

reminders. So be assured

that I'll give you a proper heads up on that

when the time comes three minutes after

ten we turn our attention first this morning back to Syria which we've not looked away from

since this horrible war started but which yesterday um actually oddly isn't it when you think about

this met police story today that caller at the top of yesterday's show who talked about people like that. I don't know if you remember in the context of the astonishingly heavy hand,

well not heavy handed, mob handed response to the squatting of an oligarch's mansion. The response

from one former police officer was, well, you've got to go in with people like that. Because you

don't know who these people are or what they're like.

But I wonder whether the racist element of the schoolgirls story is down to the same attitude.

People like that.

You have to handle people like that a certain way.

I'll be asking people not like me their answers to that question for reasons that I think I explained quite well at the beginning of yesterday's show.

The different experiences of policing render any objective comments about the state of policing.
