Just one of the outstandingly ignorant things Judge Hehir said to the defendants during the trial.
He refused to listen their reasons for their actions, he ignored climate scientists, and he gave harsh sentences.
I will speak on this in the Lords next Weds.
A court in Yekaterinburg has convicted Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich of espionage and sentenced him to 16 years in a high security penal colony. The trial has been dismissed as a ‘sham’ by US officials & the WSJ.
⚡️Russian prosecutors on Friday requested an 18-year prison sentence for U.S. journalist Evan Gershkovich.
A judge is expected to announce a final verdict at 5:00 pm local time (GMT +5).

Today's decision emanating from Southwark Crown Court is an outrage . It is an attack on our civil liberties , we must defend our right to peaceful protest .
@AttorneyGeneral , please meet with us urgently . This grotesque miscarriage of justice must be fixed .

Peaceful climate activists sentenced to 4-5 years in prison whilst private water bosses get bonus for polluting our planet.
This is a dark day for the UK.
RT if you agree.
If Nigel Farage wants to talk about incitement remember that 8 years ago Farage unveiled his racist Breaking Point poster.
Then hours later Jo Cox was murdered by a far right lunatic incited by rhetoric like Farage spewed.
Today @bbclaurak did the following:
1) made an outrageous claim that intimidation lost Jonathan Ashworth his seat
2) mocked labour policy in a sarcastic sing song voice
3) got Nigel farage to comment on divisive politics
RT if you agree they need a new presenter.
Compare and contrast - Jess Phillips stepping down from a podcast as she feels it’s inappropriate due to her role as a Minister. Nigel Farage, party/company leader, intends to continue to present a programme on GB News.
Watching @bbclaurak condemn polarising politics which inevitably lead to violence, before going live to @Nigel_Farage - couldn't make it up.

“Study reveals election coverage skewed in favour of Farage”.
Well, I for one am shocked by the findings of this study. Didn’t see that coming.

Claiming poverty, leniency and exception just days after paying shareholders £156 million in dividends.
Not a good look @thameswater, really not a good look.
