The "insufficient knowledge" of attending police officers when it came to Acute Behavioural Disturbance, along with the period of restraint are the significant factors in what changed Mouayed Bashir's recreational cocaine use to lead to a fatal result #J4MB

TRIGGER WARNING 1 - We are absolutely appalled by this video showing a @GPNewport officer brutalising this man, leaving him with bruises and a broken hand. @GPNewport have shown, on several occasions, their disregard for marginalised communities in Newport

TRIGGER WARNING 2 - This officer needs to be suspended immediately without pay pending a formal investigation into his actions. Why do police think that rules and regulations don't apply to them? @GPNewport when are you going to start holding officers accountable?

Creating banners for their peaceful march, after being inspired by @BLMGwent. The children discussed how to be anti racist and make positive actions to inspire change. One artist is creating a BLM song inspired by the day. @Arts_Wales_ @Monnow_Primary
