I didn't say who was on the receiving end of the harassment.
I found this very funny, but after watching a few similar videos it does make me wonder what the hell has gone wrong in the UK. There seems to be no
more mutual respect.
I'm no spring chicken and have seen how heavy handed the young power mad police (not all) can get recently and think they must just get used to
the lack of respect and dish out the same.
This chap does seem to know his rights.
Crazy crazy situation. 
I'd have arrested him for having an annoying voice and being a p&!ck. Did you spot the bloke watching with his hand down his pants, I'd
have arrested him for lewd behaviour in public as well.
8 coppers ? Nothing wrong with staffing levels then ........ It makes me wonder how it would have gone if he hadn't of had a camera with him and
it's a bit sad he felt he had to carry a camera ...... As said by David Davis MP if they'll fit up an MP in Downing street what hope goes a
kid on a council estate have

Yes the police aren't perfect, but unless he gets stopped 20 times a day every day, is treated with disdain and disrespect and arrested for no reason, I can't fo the life of me see why he'd behave like this? If you know your rights and a little about the law fine, but be polite and respectful to people who, in the main, are just trying to do their job.

I've just watched the full vid again with the sound well up, and at 7 seconds in when he's asked the first cop why he's been stopped he
says something about a handbrake turn, which we have to assume he is saying he witnessedd this person performing. If that is the case and he
performed an illegal/dangerous manouvre, are the police not within their rights to pull him over to speak to him?
As far as all of the comments about bacon ('bacon breath' and 'pork-mobile' were the two I heard), where was the justification for
those?
yeah i heard the handbrake turn mentioned and i can only think that with the amount of stick he was giving them if they'd of had a good reason, such as a handbrake turn, they'd have dragged him out of his car,............. my last word on it is he was a knob ed and they collectively were clueless as to what to do about him.
Interesting, I watched the other ones related to this and it led me to the TV Licensing ones which are much worse and worrying...

He should of realisesd it's an offence to operate a hand held electronic device while in control of a vehicle. 
It would make sense to give the cops all the power they need to deal with people, the problem is it only takes a few bad ones to abuse their power and
spoil it for them all and they get powers stripped from them.
What a complete knob!!! There is no excuse for his attitude or behaviour. The police obviously did nt know how to handle the situation and I think the staffing levels were a bit over the top for the situation. The police will be very embarrassed about how it planned out! While that knob will be laughing about it with his mate's thinking he's some kind of hero! And because he s got away with behaving like that he 'll try it again and others watching the video will think they can do that as well!
