Why are jury trials under attack by the UK government? Let's look at some of the things juries have decided recently for clues. 🧵

I’m not sure how good the analysis is when The Times puts all responsibility at Starmer’s door but stays silent on the complicity of right wing media (itself included) in promoting Farage and destabilising our democracy, by refusing to hold the ever more extreme and dangerous right wing to account.

It's both ambitious and not ambitious enough - but in the era of Trump rollbacks and fossil fuelled populism, it's something to see a centre-left government *that won largely on climate issues* actually trying to deliver. Or at least not ceding every inch of political territory to Scorched Earthers.

A UN commission of inquiry has confirmed what was already clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The government’s position was already morally indefensible. It is now politically untenable. Keir Starmer and his Labour ministers must be held criminally accountable.

A UN commission of inquiry has confirmed what was already clear: Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

For nearly two years we’ve witnessed the deliberate slaughter of civilians, starvation of an entire population, and the systematic destruction of hospitals and essential infrastructure. This has been accompanied by open calls to annihilate Palestinians from Israel’s political and military leaders.

This is the most documented genocide in history.

Yet just two weeks ago, the UK government claimed it had not concluded Israel was acting with genocidal intent. It continues to arm Israel's genocide, provide RAF reconnaissance support and roll out the red carpet for Israeli war criminals.

The government’s position was already morally indefensible. It is now politically untenable.

Keir Starmer and his Labour ministers must be held criminally accountable.
