What Qwert says ...

@Mjbreagan If such a ruling happens after you have already pled guilty or accepted a deal, you are likely stuck. By accepting the deal, you essentially accepted the evidence as valid and waived your right to fight it. Even if the evidence is later declared "illegal"

[Yehudi Moszkowicz @Moszkowicz]

Officers could read conversations as they happened and even choose which phones to monitor.
When this live intelligence led to major drug seizures, the true source was deliberately concealed from courts with fabricated cover stories.

I have followed this case over a significant period of time. The police believe the father poses a risk and yet… here we are again

Went to see this film from @aarontrinder - what an incredible piece of beautifully researched social history. If you were there, most likely you can't quite remember ... but it brought a tear to my eye and an honest sense that we were part of something truly special #WatchThis

This is a film you definitely want to see at least twice if you were there… It’s authentic, well researched and true to the original vibe. Great work from @aarontrinder and @docnrollfest 🙂꩜🎶🎧 #CriminalJusticeBill #30YearsOn #RaveOn

@Moszkowicz Just spotted this - amazing work. Would love to see the ruling, when possible. And congratulations

A follow up from @SkyNews and @NickMartinSKY why wasn’t there a Safeguarding Adults Review - these young people had all turned 18.

@hargreavescmo Think this is about the confusion around the pre-existing definition of 'spying' and 'at war' that was outdated. It may not have been possible to claim the individuals were acting as agents for a country in a way that this definition could be applied.

At the time we aired this we got an enormous amount of legal pushback…Now we see the full extent of Epstein’s friendship with the man he called “Petey” @TomPorterC4

[Rebecca Tidy @DrRebeccaTidy]

🧵Last week I was interviewed under caution on suspicion of harassing an ex-Devon + Cornwall Police sergeant.

All I did was post 4 accurate, professional tweets stating he was arrested + charged with harassing a woman.

It raises big questions about free speech + public interest
