Jurors have a right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience, irrespective of a Judge’s directions. Every defendant deserves access to fair justice.

This whole Afroman vs. the police is too funny they wanted to sue him for $3.9 million defamation for making diss tracks roasting them, and it backfired.

🚨Essex Police has halted its use of facial recognition tech after identifying potential “bias risks”. This should serve as a wake-up call for the Government and police. We need urgent safeguards in place to protect us from the dangers of this tech. theguardian.com/technology/202…

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

“I still think it’s outrageous and ridiculous that they’re arresting people for holding paper signs because, in a healthy democracy, governments don’t arrest people under terrorism laws for holding paper signs.” See EveryoneDay.uk to take action on April 11th.

The arrest breaches the Met Police’s policy on expressions of support for Palestine Action. Defend Our Juries: “The police can’t just lie to the public about their intentions. People are entitled to an urgent explanation from the Met Commissioner…” EveryoneDay.uk
