Activist Young Bob Arrested After Explaining Use of ‘Paki’ Term at London Protest



British activist Thomas Moffitt was detained by Metropolitan Police during a protest after video showed him discussing 'Paki' as shorthand for Pakistani, similar to 'Brit' or 'Aussie.' Supporters call it a free speech overreach, while critics point to the term's history as a racial slur tied to past attacks on South Asian communities. Released on bail and later cleared with no further action, Moffitt described it as his third arrest in two months; John Cleese shared the clip, saying he no longer trusts British police.
