UNLAWFUL ARREST

This woman was arrested for holding a sign with “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” on it, a totally lawful statement to make, even under the Labour government’s absurd new laws proscribing the direct action group.

The state means Westminster. The debt is Westminster debt. Scotland has no debt and is confined by law to a budget. No state has ever successfully transferred debt to a devolved state as it leaves.

Not sure people can connect protests of genocide to anti Semitism. Some actress was asked if she supported the killing of Palestinians by Israel and she talked about not being involved in the purity of policy. Cop out.

Thames Water's bidders ask to be excused from fully complying with rules on pollution until 2035-40.

Rule of law?

Anything given to TW can't be denied to others. Sewage will be dumped. Customers will be fleeced. Returns will be extracted.

One law for corporations, another for lesser mortals.

Thames Water creditors ask for up to 15 years’ leniency from river pollution rules
