You could have looked it up before commenting. <5% is hardly any sort of "oh quite a few actually do". That rate pretty much halves in Scotland, with N.Ireland being a significant outlier as it has different rules.

UK police are decent at avoiding escalation as opposed to the US where they often _are_ the escalation. In England and Wales 24/25, two people died by being shot by the police. TWO. Ten year average is THREE.
