Just to confirm, is it a free pass if you do something and say you think it was going to make a difference to something thousands of miles away? Sounds fun.

Hmmm I could see how that’s maybe a defence for breaking and entering in this case, not sure it’s adequate defence for attacking a policewoman with a sledgehammer. Sets a dangerous precedent.

Has anyone read enough to know if they were charged and found not guilty for that

‘The jury at Woolwich Crown Court had been deliberating for more than 36 hours after a trial that began in November 2025.
Rajwani, Rogers and Devlin were found not guilty of violent disorder. No verdict was reached for charges of violent disorder for Head, Corner and Kamio.
Corner was accused of causing grievous bodily harm with intent by striking police sergeant Kate Evans in her back with a sledgehammer. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on this charge.’

Now depends if CPS go for retrial I guess

When different rules apply to different people then people will just act like cunts. Dread to think what would happen if I hit a copper with a sledgehammer.

On a smaller level, it's the same as the pricks who stroll into shops, fill their bags and just walk out because they can.

The bodycam footage from the security guards is just bizarre. Why are they armed with whips and sledgehammers?

I wouldn't of thought security guards should be armed at all but why are they patrolling the building with them and then attacking people?

Interesting that's your take from it, security guards fault. Wasn't it the protestors with the whips who were the "black team"?

That police woman in Manchester headbutting that guys fist as well, the bitch.

Just caught a bit on the news this morning that said they'd released bodycam footage that showed the security guards using whips on the people that broke in

At no point have I suggested anything was the security guards fault, just thought it was a bit odd they had whips and sledgehammers but if thats been incorrectly reported then that would explain it.

The High Court has ruled that the ban of Palestine Action under terrorism legislation is unlawful - but it remains in place for now.

In a massive blow to the Home Office, three senior judges said that while Palestine Action use criminality to promote its aims its activities had not crossed the very high bar to make it a terrorist organisation.

The judges however ruled the ban must remain in place until a further hearing later in February as to what should happen next - including the possibility of a government appeal.

The decision means that while the group has successfully challenged the ban, expressing support for Palestine Action or taking part in its activities remains a serious criminal offence.

I think the big thing I take from that is that police can respond within two minutes to someone doing a bit of graffiti.

There's no way they got there within 2 minutes unless they then stood there and let him finish. Which you wouldn't put past the Met.

The regime does. They murdered upto 30k of their citizens in the matter of days for protesting. I don’t see that as particularly controversial

Does anyone want a war, of course not and I personally think we should steer well clear. The bigger issue with anything like this though is what happens to the citizens and what comes next. let’s hope it’s not the usual post war shambles we’ve seen elsewhere in the Middle East

It’s so uncontroversial as to be facile. Saddam “deserved it” too.

It’s not about regime change, it’s about acquiring territory. About 5% of Americans support what they’re doing, and it’s all being done on Israel’s behalf, not even the naked oil grab that Venezuela and Iraq were.

You’re just being extremely naive if you think this is about punishing the baddies. Israel are guilty of even worse.

As you might recall I said on the other thread that I thought Trump will do what’s best for Trump first and America second.

This isn’t even what’s best for him, it’s what’s best for Israel. The deal was apparently that Israel would kick things off, and provoke an Iranian response on US targets in the region to garner more ‘support’ for a war.

Don’t worry, I’m sure he’s already done some kind of deal somewhere that’s he’ll benefit from personally.

There are no ‘good guys’ in that part of the world, Jordan are perhaps the ‘least bad’. Also of note to be welcoming literal jihadists in charge of Syria.
