Definitely not Learning The Lessons From Southport.

The strange case of the Liverpool car driver continues.

There is now more speculation because it appears from online sources that the "53 year old white man arrested at the scene" may not be the driver. Video evidence shows the driver to be younger than 53.

The 53 years old white man is alleged by many online to be one of the crowd attacking the driver.

Such is the low threshold of trust with the Police and their ability to lie to forward an agenda, it's quite believable that they arrested a white geezer for attacking the car and then went public about that in order to hide the true identity of the driver.

"Arrested at the scene" does not make him the driver. Nice try at obfuscation, Merseyside Police.

It's getting to a pretty low point in public services when everything they say is qualified, everything is filtered towards a particular narrative. The truth is never spoken by these people. Whether it's Police, Military, Civil Service or Politicians, you know they are lying when their lips move.

It used to be a matter of pride, a matter of obligation  to tell the truth in Public Office. What has changed? Why can't official sources tell just the plain truth any more?

Maybe they think we can't handle the truth. Maybe they can't handle the truth themselves. 

Or more likely, they can't handle the aftermath of the majority finding out the truth.

Right now, Merseyside Police need to come out with the truth. Identify the attacker. Confirm his age and ethnicity. If they told the truth, then it wouldn't be hard to quash rumours, would it?

UPDATE:

The BBC are describing the 53-year-old man as the driver. It's possible he is, but the video of the driver taken on the day doesn't appear to be a 53-year-old. 

We'll see I guess.
