If Boris were running the show, he’d just disarm any pesky investigators by offering them a cup of tea; all while using his best harmless buffoon voice, of course.

There are so many people quoted complaining about this for different reasons

• “Didn’t you say you don’t recognise the ICC”
• “Isn’t it your policy to support one side here”
• “Isn’t there already a police investigation [into one of the sides]”

and of course the one which police must be familiar with hearing almost every time they do policing:

• “Shouldn’t you be focusing on the real criminals”

Must be weird to hear that last one from the Home Secretary instead of from someone annoyed that they got pulled over!

I didn’t see it mentioned whether the people taking witnesses statements at the airport would usually be fighting gangs in the street? It seems like airports usually have plenty of police dedicated to airport stuff like this.
