Yep the old boys brigade cause I know so many Met cops from 30 years ago.
The SPG were a law unto themselves, they did carry unauthorised weapons, they were violent and probably dished out more than their fair share of beatings
BUT I do not for a second think they went out that day with the express intention of killing someone.
I also think its entirely plausible that whoever dealt the blow that caused his injuries does not know for sure that they were responsible.

Yeah that'll work, when people are being attacked just stand back and smile sweetly till they calm down. Back at the G20 riots there was a time when a cop was badly injured by protestors hitting him with a long pole, in response the batons came out. Do you think thats an overreaction?
