There are no water cannons in Great Britain. The 3 bought for the Metropolitan Police by Boris Johnson in 2014 were scrapped by Sadiq Khan in 2018 (a waste of £300,000). The Police Service of Northern Ireland has 6, but such appliances have never been used in Great Britain. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-46258584 https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-use-of-force-statistics-for-northern-ireland-period-ending-31-march-2024

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1820152850715988008
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
