Police causing the maximum inconvenience, M4 closure Options

[gel]

Why are Police causing massive inconvenience to thousands and not bringing incident to swift end by intervention; presume a jumper or the like?

Almost certainly this will result in more accidents due to overloaded local roads, whilst police never seem to have in mind rapid reopening of this major artery.

It is a shame that you can only see one side of the argument and demonstrate a rather blinkered view.

I see you are someone else who thinks that they are the only ones with an opinion and those that disagree should remain quiet. Not healthy in a democracy.

On the contrary. I may not have the same opinions as others on here but I love to read what others think. I nearly always learn something and I think that healthy debate increases my knowledge (which I much need) and creates interesting and enjoyable moments to my day (also much needed). What I find hard to understand is when peoples point of view is damaging and disturbing as in this particular dabate.

Being frustrated because of the inconvenience caused I can understand, to a point. But, in this case to show such lack of compassion for a fellow human beings pain and distress is far more selfish as your state of mind is at an apparent "normal" level. Or maybe not!!

I do understand your position and appreciate that this person has issues that he was unable to deal with and maybe he did not consciously make the decision to cause the mayhem that he did.
However the fact remains that many people will have had their lives disrupted, some in quite a serious manner. Someone could have possibly died because they could not get to hospital in time or been involved in a serious accident as a result of this incident. My compassion is for the pain and distress of the many, not the one.
I find it pretentious and arrogant that you hold yourself as judge of what is normal or not.
