First he obstructs Kerr at the British trials, now at the London meet he pushes several people out of the way and causes a massive fall. There's probably more that I don't know about since I've only been following the sport more frequently

Trials was Kerr’s fault. There was never room for him to get through on the inside without contact.
Trying too hard and his current fitness doesn't seem to match his ambition/ego.
Sorry, but I agree with you. He very obviously made contact with his arm in visibly pushing another runner out of the way today which caused the fall and subsequent disruption amongst other runners.

I don’t blame him for British Trials too much.
In this one Ciattei beat him to the spot, and he tried to barge through while not looking and took out Laros’ legs.
Over 10 years ago in British champs 800m final, pretty sure it was Giles who aggressively pushed another runner out of his way at the top of the final 100 and was dq as a result

It's silly how these races are being officiated and not recalled. I know that's how they have done it historically on the circuit, but certain athletes are are making a mockery of the rules. It's becoming about who is the most physical and not the most fit. Giles is a repeat offender.

Giles has now taken out Kerr, Gourley and Mills in his last two races. Is he sabotaging Team GB for a mysterious Russian oligarch?
Kerr took out Giles.
Giles looks right, sees him approaching on the big screen and then steps inside to block him. Anything else doesn't make sense as he was already drifting hard to the outside to block Burgin and Pattison before randomly deciding to change course entirely. If he had run straight for the line like you're supposed to, noone falls.

Zig-zagging just ensures that he runs more than his competitors.

Kerr literally runs into the back of him. There was never enough space.

B-b-but if that’s the way it went down then Kerr isn’t the bad guy and that just isn’t right
