It's a good job we have such a brave police force and a democratic justice system that protects us from such dangerous foreign criminals.

Starmer's government has set the most dangerous of precedents: it can now outlaw any political group it chooses as a terrorist organisation – and thereby make it impossible to defend it

They are seeking to silence dissent.

Our right to protest is becoming inconvenient to the state so they are changing and manipulating the law to criminalise peaceful protests and direct action.

Starmer wraps himself in the British flag and, within two years of taking office, removes the right to trial by jury which has been a core British 'value' for close to 1,000 years...

The Scales ⚖️ @shakethescales.bsky.social · Dec 2

Juries were common in Anglo-Saxon law, were formalised in the Assize of Clarendon in 1166 & normalised by the Magna Carta in 1215.

Starmer floated their removal in 2025, formalises it in 2026. But he loves British values, right?

Starmer = trial by ordeal.

Just for absolute clarity, the government’s proscription of Palestine Action is a self-evident farce, deeply unethical and morally bankrupt. It is an unforgivable waste of time and resources, and makes them look both deeply unserious and as ideologically compromised as they clearly are.

If this doesn't scare you then you don't understand what the erosion of your civil rights really means for you and your family.

Labour under McSweeny and Starmer are not a benign center left party, they are hard right authoritarians.
