Ian Tomlinson family receive Met police payout

You have to wonder what the outcome would have been without the video footage.

Without the video it would have gone nowhere. The police would have covered it up. The compensation needs to be at least a six figure sum to make the police reform its policies. Otherwise it just becomes another overhead.

The American tourist who came forward with the video footage also deserves credit - had it not been for them then this would have been covered up.
