Nowak murder: force accused of ‘anti-white bias’ five times more likely to stop black people
The Hampshire force whose officers responded to the murder of Henry Nowak have a higher than average racial disparity The police force accused of anti-white racism following the murder of Henry Nowak is over five times more likely to subject black people to a stop and search than white people, according to the latest figures. The racial disparity in the Hampshire force is higher than the average for England and Wales, and has gotten worse in recent years. Continue reading...

You beat me to it, Jack - but, yes, vulnerability of the users possibly necessitating greater interference with protest rights?

Suzanne Dixon @suzmd.bsky.social · 22/08/2025
It's like a Yes Minister sketch. My protest is terrorism; yours is a public nuisance; theirs is 'unlawful' but a factor in an interim decision to shut down the protest target.

Suzanne Dixon @suzmd.bsky.social · 22/08/2025
Wow! Similar - though more extreme - to pattern for public nuisance when it was turned against protesters.

The only people who have spoiled the nature of this area were the mindless thugs who came to our homes last evening and created chaos. I’ve never been scared by the asylum seekers. I’m terrified that the angry mob will return. So, how do I get *my* country back from them? I’ve genuinely no idea

Palestine Action co-founder wins permission to challenge ban
Huda Ammori argued that home secretary’s decision to proscribe group under terrorism laws was ‘abuse of power’ The co-founder of Palestine Action can bring a legal challenge to the home secretary’s decision to ban the direct action group under anti-terrorism laws, a high court judge has ruled. Lawyers for Huda Ammori argued at a hearing in London last week that the proscription of Palestine Action, placing it on a par with groups such as Islamic State and Boko Haram, was “repugnant” and an “authoritarian and blatant abuse of power”.

Honestly I’m fine with that, so long as I can still be supportive of the costal scenery (the only thing I liked in either the book or the film)!

Yes - and what does that matter anyway? Some of the public don’t feel that way, or there wouldn’t be a protest. Protest rights aren’t based on a show of hands.

Suzanne Dixon @suzmd.bsky.social · 23/06/2025
Yes, I was thinking that. Lots of complaints about illegitimate tactics but not about illegitimate cause, that I can remember.

I see Honest Bob Jenrick has a new little video attacking barristers for representing unpopular clients. Once again for those at the back: Lawyers are not their clients. Which is how, when Jenrick broke the law in government, he had lawyers to defend him.

Seems to be another from this quick read to add to the Ziegler plus column and counter the broadish weight of criminal cases before the UK courts these past 2-3 years The domestic court should conduct a proportionality exercise @lewisgrahamlaw.bsky.social @amritlohia.bsky.social

There’s a bit more context in this article - it’s similar to the Hallam case. MSM haven’t covered it so far - although it is on CNN. morningstaronline.co.uk/article/six-...
