The man in the picture is Peter Lynch. During the protests that took place after the events in Southport a few years ago, Peter was arrested and fast-tracked into prison for simply raising his voice at the police.
He was 61 years old and sentenced to nearly three years in prison. He ended up taking his own life.
This was on Starmer.
Don't tell me Starmer is a "decent" and "nice" man because he got a bit teary eyed while reading from a predictable, pathetic script about focusing on being a good husband and father.
Muhammed Amaad has not been acquitted.
That distinction matters enormously and the media coverage is blurring it almost completely.
Two juries failed to reach a verdict.
That is not the same as innocence.
It means twelve people — twice — could not unanimously agree on what happened.
The CPS has now declined a third trial, citing the cost and difficulty of achieving a verdict after two hung juries.
PC Lydia Ward had her nose broken.
That is a fact that cannot be litigated away.
Amaaz was convicted — of assaulting Ward and another female officer, and a member of the public.
He faces sentencing on June 26.
His brother walks with no conviction against his name.
Meanwhile the judge referred Farage — a man who forced this case to trial in the first place — to the Attorney General for calling it what it was.
We are being asked to accept a justice system where the man who broke a policewoman’s nose gets sentenced, his brother walks on a technicality of jury disagreement, and the politician who made the prosecution happen faces scrutiny for saying the words “two-tier justice.”
Does anyone still wonder why public trust in institutions is collapsing?
@SkySportsNews Swindon town was demoted 2 divisions after winning the play off final for far less that most of the bigs clubs have got away with which cost the club dearly!
التحكيم الانجليزي كلف توتنهام باعترافتهم هم 9 نقاط
9 نقاط كانت كفيلة أن تبعد توتنهام عن صراع الهبوط
هذه النقاط هم من اعترفوا فيها بالخطأ، ولكن هناك الكتير مما لم يعترفوا بها
توتنهام في حال سيء هذا الموسم ولكن لولا التحكيم ما كان توتنهام في صراع الهبوط من الأساس
Spurs have been incredibly poor this season, but would still be in a much better situation if not for the referees. Having to play against 15 men in every game when you only have 12 fit players is impossible.
@TheVillaPolls In 1990 Swindon town were demoted two divisions for 36 counts of financial irregularities and yet Chelsea do worse and get next to nothing premier league /football have always been corrupt !
