Those charged with terrorism for supporting Palestine Action will have no jury in trials limited to 36 minutes each, with prison sentences up to six months. These are the plans for Starmer Courts for mass trials of anti-Genocide protestors.

    What a shocker to see this coming from the UK equivalent of the Democrats. Perhaps years of voting for the “lesser evil” isn’t panning out like people thought it would, but thank god people compromised on their beliefs and fell in line to get these politicians elected. “Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good” and all that jazz. Imagine how bad things would be if those other guys got elected.

      I mean, aren’t we seeing exactly how that plays out in the US? We have masked armed thugs breaking into people’s homes and disappearing them, while the new “Department of War” launches missiles at random fishing boats.
