I'm pretty sure this thread includes the real Brian Paddick and Paul Boateng... as i say, the doc yesterday featured Brian admitting to the Police problems at the time. For those across the pond, Brian Paddick is famous as the highest ranking gay policeman who relaxed drug laws when he was in charge in Brixton, was "exposed" by an ex-lover and sacked, to be eventually reinstated and promoted. He handled a lot of the Police publicity around 7/7.
To a lot of people in the Brixton community Brian has a saintly glow around him.
Apparently this week marks 25 years since the Battle of Railton Rd.
