A police officer has been filmed kicking and stamping on the head of a man lying on the ground at Manchester Airport.
The uniformed male officer is seen holding a Taser over the man, who is lying face down, before striking him twice while other officers shout at onlookers to stay back in a video shared widely online.
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said firearms officers had been attacked while attempting to arrest someone following a fight in the airport’s Terminal 2 on Tuesday. It said it had referred itself to the police watchdog.
Anger has grown over the video and a crowd of what appeared to be several hundred people protested outside the police station in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, on Wednesday evening.

This is abhorrent behaviour.
As is the (alt/extreme-right) Reform MP that said the behaviour of the police officer should be commended.https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjk3ppjjlpmo
We need to address whatever is causing such a surge in support for these kinds of people
