This is brilliant news, and also shows why the Labour Party wants to abolish most trials by jury, and how important it is they don't get away with it:

Congratulations to the six!
But also this really underlines the danger of long running periods of the UK govt imprisoning activists on remand while they sow malicious narratives about them in the media. Thank goodness they were all acquitted.

A truly hideous right wing smear campaign against these six activists for exercising their free speech rights to protest - and confronted with the evidence all six have been acquitted.

The Mail care so much about women's sport they can't even get the score of the match right - it was 3-2 after extra time. It finished 2-2 at normal time.
This is the Mail.
Both the Times and the Mail spend a lot of time and money telling us regularly how much they care about women and girls in sport.
Just only when a trans person is involved, it seems.

UK anti-trans journalism is the twisted baby of UK anti-vax journalism and UK anti-gay journalism, with a sprinkling of tactics from UK anti-immigrant and UK anti-traveller journalism
I wasn't aware the anti-vax stuff originated in the UK till I saw hbomberguy's big video on it, and man was I getting constant deja vu with how the UK media reported on the anti-vax nonsense and how they report on trans people. Uncritically pushing junk science to harm people.

essentially my view of tonight is: i dont think it needs to be deeped that much. yes the scoreline doesnt reflect the match, but i havent got loads of massive issues with the way a heavily rotated arsenal thar finished with 2 academy lads/3 teenagers played
