Where’s the 14 Tb claim coming from? I’ve not seen that before, just 6 million pages.

Edit: it looks like Channel 4 news has this scoop, they’ve seen emails from someone in the FBI who claimed there were 14.6 TB of data.

When what finally happens? We’re a frog in a pot, there is no point where things suddenly get a thousand times worse, it happens gradually. Until the frog finally jumps out, except we can’t.

A member of a “democratic socialist” party calling a nazi a nazi, sensationalised as groundbreaking. What a world we now live in.

O.o

Am I being dense to assume that one of the six names is “Donald J Trump”? Why would he not be one of the names?

They won’t ever stop. Raping children is a symptom of being a billionaire. If you want children not to be raped, you need to ensure nobody has enough power to get away with it, because otherwise some will do it just because they can

Society uses maths to do science wherever possible; “the language with which god has written the universe”.

Iirc Hong Kong was on a lease to the British gov, which ended in 1999. I don’t know if giving it back was an option. Was there another choice the UK could’ve made?

Sure looked like it. Sure looks like you’ve been proved definitively wrong and now you’re like iT wAs OnLy A jOkE bRo. You sure look like a bad faith commenter who can’t admit they’re wrong, or “twat” if you want to use the shorthand.

Yep in those cases it seems right, but as a blanket I’m not so sure. There’s a grey area at the fringes of which a thief steals a Lucozade from a shop and can’t prosecute the shopkeeper for breaking his legs so he can’t escape before the police arrive.

I didn’t know that. That seems completely unjust. I hope the private prosecution would be allowed after the CPS is finished with the case?

One does not “just” read a three million page document.

Protestors can’t bring charges? Can you explain what you mean by that because it’s definitely not correct as is. Protestors have the protection of the law just like everybody else.
Only the CPS can prosecute? That’s not right either, private prosecutions are allowed in the UK, under the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985. You can have your case heard in the magistrates court for example.

So for you, justice will only be done when a jury finds him guilty? Because he’s already been tried by jury once

So it would be a different case, with a different prosecution, if the protesters were bringing charges against the security guard, no?

Well if they have, then the prosecution in that case certainly haven’t been as energetic in propagandising the violence as the prosecution for the crown.

You seem to be someone who has faith in institutions. Do you not think justice has been done? The jury saw the same video you did and didn’t believe it to be GBH with intent. So the officer who was injured has had her justice.

It’s in the article there:

jurors did not return a verdict on the charge faced by Corner of grievous bodily harm with intent for striking a police officer with a sledgehammer.

Here’s another interesting bit:

Bodycam footage presented to the jury appeared to show security guard Angelo Volante allegedly striking defendant Devlin in the neck with a sledgehammer, knocking him to the ground.

A series of images and a body map detailing Devlin’s injuries, including a black eye, was presented to the jury.

In another clip, Volante is seen brandishing a whip and running towards Devlin, who was unarmed. He then picked up a sledgehammer and swung it at Devlin and co-defendant Rogers.

Let’s hope there’s some justice for the protesters, eh?

I got chills watching that.

As am Englishman, I am offended. The idea that I am not capable of preparing Italian food as well as a native, or that I would ever cook English cuisine in my kitchen, is outright racism.

I hate to break it to you but Norma Pielli died in 2015.
