Paint Balls

On 4 September at Preston Crown Court, the next five Palestine Action convicts will be sentenced as terrorists, a possibility of which neither they nor the jury had been informed, for criminal damage by throwing paint at a building, even though they had acted 11 months before Palestine Action was proscribed. So this could happen to any dissidents, including traditional conservatives and the populist Right.

Yvette Cooper imposed the mass homicidal Work Capability Assessment. She has announced new mental health hubs "to get people back to work", as if the mentally ill never worked, or as if a job were a cure for mental illness. And having been Home Secretary when Palestine Action was proscribed, she is threatening to resign if that proscription were lifted. Wes Streeting's funny money is the chance to exorcise Blairism, while this is the chance to exorcise Brownism.
