'All arrests involve some form of force and pressing someone even in the face throughout a struggle is not always intentional and even if it is its part and parcel in numerous arrests when limiting a suspect. No arrest lacks some sort of force.

'I'm sick and fed up with officers being disciplined for things like this and I think the majority of the public would believe this is absolutely bonkers.

'Many senior officers kowtow to the consistent criticism of the cops in a sort of appeasement and often toss officers under the bus or to the wolves as sacrificial lambs. Cases like this are most likely to hinder individuals from joining the authorities.'
