Westminster Murders - Truth & Lies:

It is a sad fact that FACTS can be - and ARE - manipulated by powerful people seeking advantage & profit.

Sir Craig Mackey Acting Metropolitan Police Commissioner.

The Head of London's police has stated at the Inquiry into the Westminster Terror Attack, - that he watched a killer stab & kill an officer - from the safety of his locked limo - then he drove away. March 22nd 2017 in Westminster, London. - Link to story:

There are many possible realities and strongly held opinions about his actions & 'admission' - indeed my thought is that he too may have been mentally conditioned by current Police advise to "Don't resist - escape, hide, - call for police help".

I hope that in such circumstance I would have acted differently ... BUT it is increasingly hard to make sound judgments because every issue is colored and presented through the hands of "spin doctors" - Press Officers, advertising agencies, Marketing Agencies, political advisers, Newspaper editors/owners, private secretaries, Public Relations Offices, - who use distancing language, "cherry picking" and propaganda. - People PAID to lie.

Wikipedia says: ".. public relations and advertising may also rely on altering the presentation of the facts, "spin" often implies the use of disingenuous, deceptive, and highly manipulative tactics."

"..  using deceptive "spin" tactics to manipulate public opinion or deceive the public. Spin approaches used by some political teams include "burying" potentially negative new information by releasing it at the end of the workday on the last day before a long weekend; selectively cherry-picking quotes from previous speeches made by their employer or an opposing politician to give the impression that they advocate a certain position; and purposely leaking misinformation about an opposing politician or candidate that casts them in a negative light."

Often we ordinary folk consider 'impressions' or 'perceptions' as the basis for our opinions -
whereas we need to seek THE FACTS before making any judgment.
In plain English - we are being lied to so often by so many different people

that you might be excused for not noticing anymore.

Is it not time to make the telling of lies for profit a criminal offence?

In UK, - Marcus J Ball (Brexit Justice) is moving towards prosecuting Boris Johnson for his
 lies about 'BREXIT'
"I believe politicians lie all the time. This precedent would not – sadly – stop all lying in politics but it would, I hope, stop some of the more serious ones."

- Good luck with that.
