    Not surprising to people here I’m sure but a lot of these new “Counter Terrorist” units are increasingly militarised brute squads for the British establishment, too. Pretty sure they cross train with private military companies.

      I would be shocked if they didn’t cross train with Israeli counterparts and are in dialogue with equivalent brute squads across the NATOsphere. The whole NATOsphere cop soup is deeply integrated when it comes to training, theory, and doctrine. They all share toys and study each others methods.
