@mac123_m Hate the Tories but want a real alternative, not Starmer's Labour ™?
Then why not help unseat Starmer in his own London constituency?

In 2014, a woman accused Russell Brand of assault. A court then banned her from ever talking about it, even to the police. She had no lawyer; there was no proper trial.
It's hard to believe so here, for the first time, is a copy of the injunction: https://t.co/A8JvHcLtwD
I absolutely love this lady and everything she has done for the Palestinian cause.
If there were a world prize recognising genuine humanity, courage, and moral conviction, Sarah would be at the top of my nominations.
What an extraordinary woman.
Thank you, @CrispinShow, for this great video; follow them.

An intelligent well argued case. As opposed to the @andyburnham case, which is in fact no case at all, just a blind unconditional affiliation to the most flagrant brutal murderers of the modern era, and a facile attack on the Greens for labelling Zionism racist. Labour is lost.
Urban asks Nandy about Remembrance Sunday
Nandy says we remember the sacrifices people made
Urban then asks, when are you going to spend more [on war]?
Nandy says the govt is spending more & will cut spending elsewhere to spend even more
Both wearing poppies, of course
Schama and Paphitis have both made unfounded allegations of 'antisemitism' against Corbyn's Labour Party, so they'll be right at home with @bbclaurak. No idea who the Tory is.

@per_incuriam2@DanNeidle It appears that holding the core principles of justice as important is an impediment to advancing in the UK legal profession, just holding the core principles of journalism as important is an impediment to advancing in UK journalism.
Something very rotten is going on here.
Ms Berki tried to appeal the injunction, initially on her own and then again this year with support from a pro bono barrister. (Full judgments in our report)
But appealing a decision like this is very hard. She really needs to apply to vary the injunction.
You'd expect the judgment would contain the discussion of whether these restrictions were necessary and proportionate (or even lawful).
It does not.
A lawyer would have raised these points. Ms Berki had no lawyer.
The full document is published on our website (link at the end)
The injunction contains reporting restrictions; the specific accusations contained in a Confidential Schedule can't be repeated. So I can't publish that.
There wasn't a full trial, just a summary judgment in which the judge didn't determine if Ms Berki's accusations were true, but said she had harassed Brand and Goldsmith
Ms Berki had no lawyer.
To be barred from speaking to the police seems to be contrary to justice. And to enforce a £50k down payment in case of any future breaches of such an order against someone who has no resources is vile. Brand and Goldsmith should be ashamed. As should the judges involved.
If journalists like Courtney weren’t reporting from Lebanon we wouldn’t know that Israel is still killing people and demolishing homes.
Because legacy media doesn’t care.
