The world’s first trillionaire made a pedophile rapist the president of the United States and then personally made sure starving children couldn’t get food and medicine, with 14 million deaths projected from his actions alone. He’s possibly the most evil person in history.
Apartheid South Africa and Nazi Germany needed compliant judges to provide a legal veneer to their darkest crimes.
Judge Johnson joins their wretched company. He overturned a jury's conviction of four anti-genocide activists for criminal damage and sentenced them as terrorists instead.
As one their barristers pointed out, the four defendants were initially arrested by police on suspicion of involvement in an act of terrorism. But the prosecution decided not to charge them with terrorism offences because it knew no jury would ever convict them based on the evidence.
Instead the Crown held two trials: a sham one for the jury, and the real one conducted in secret by the judge. That is not justice. It is a show trial worthy of the worst tyrannical regimes.
Today four activists face terror-related sentences for taking direct action against an Elbit Systems weapons factory in Filton, Bristol - a factory that makes drones sent to the genocidal apartheid state of Israel to kill Palestinians in Gaza.
Back in April, I warned in Parliament that jurors would not be told terrorism sentences could follow a criminal damage conviction.
No terrorism charges were ever brought. The proscription against Palestine Action has since been ruled unlawful. The defendants were even prevented from telling the jury they acted to stop genocide.
This is a Labour government defending Israeli death factories and stripping away all of our fundamental rights.
Everyone who cares about our democracy should be outraged.
The world's first trillionaire is backing the far right mobs and their politician backers.
Don't think for a second that these men have ordinary people's interests at heart.
Fuck you, @washingtonpost . Amal did not ‘die,’ she was deliberately targeted and murdered after receiving threats from the Israeli army. She was in touch with us, her colleagues, during this situation. We all know exactly what happened. Shame on you for intentionally diminishing the criminality of the actions of the Israeli army with this headline. Shame on all of you and your correspondents in Beirut.
I hope to see you on trial for your propaganda in my lifetime.
This was not a "protest". Members of the public & police officers were attacked & worshippers in Glasgow Central Mosque were unable to leave due to fears of violence. Call it what it is, racist thuggery.
This silence from @CelticFC is deafening. I have just spend nearly £800 on season ticket and have no clue about anything happening at the club, players, management, future plans, new chairman, stadium update. Nothing, hee haw! It really is out of order to be treated this way.
Mick Lynch on Reform & Restore ‘they are all as despicable as each other to me & working class people should turn away from the hatred they spread … you believe in isolating people & taking advantage of poverty so you can divide them & make your friends even richer.’

Polite reminder. Trump & Brexit are not 2 different things. They are the same thing. Same companies. Same data. Same Facebook. Same Russians. Same Cambridge Analytica. Same Robert Mercer. Same Steve Bannon. Same Breitbart. Same Alexander Nix. Same Donald Trump. Same Nigel Farage.
Israel is not our ally. They're a foreign government that has stolen our nuclear secrets, nuclear triggers and uranium. And they built weapons of mass destruction with them. They also stole our most sensitive intelligence through Jonathan Pollard.
They have robbed us of $320 billion. They made us waste $8 trillion fighting their wars in the Middle East.
The way they pulled off these heists is by legally bribing almost our entire Congress and being the top donor to presidents from both parties.
Their co-conspirators are the national media who cover up all these crimes and pretend that Israel is an innocent victim who desperately needs our help. When they are the exact opposite. They are an aggressive empire that takes our money and military and uses it to attack their neighbors and take their land.
We have to stop this inflitration of our country by a foreign nation that has taken control of the power structure in Washington. We are occupied.
So Farage ran away from parliament after he was shamed by the PM.
Where did he run away to? To Oswald's in Mayfair, a private members club.
When will people wake up. He doesn’t represent you. He doesn’t understand you. He’s not like you. He’s using you.

It's an honor to have made Israel's enemies list. I'm very proud to have fought against their genocide.
The mighty United Kingdom is afraid of speech that shows you who's responsible for those war crimes. But no amount of censorship will get us to stop telling the truth.
Iran fires missiles at Gulf States—we all condemn—and the whole world stands up condemning Iran.
Israel wipes out entire villages and bombing cities thousands of years old in Lebanon, the World is silent.
Zero deaths in Gulf States.
3,324+ killed in Lebanon.
Double standards.
“The war in Gaza” is actually “the Genocide in Gaza”
“The war in Lebanon” is actually “the Genocide in Lebanon”
“Collateral damage and human shields” is actually “murder children and innocent civilians”
The media uses euphemisms to control the narrative. The media is complicit
