We need to have eyes wide open this is exactly why the Government wants to abolish juries.
People protesting against a genocide are not the criminals here - it's the politicians who continue to provide cover.

I know it is pointless saying this but I will do it anyway.

Ciclone Harry, lβallarme di Mediterranea: Β«Possibili mille dispersi in mareΒ»

There arent really words for a person like Streeting. Actually brought up in the "labour" party by Mandelson, knew who he was consorting with and only sees the light when it becomes clear that the slimey one is cooked. What the fuck is wrong with these people?
