It's a fine point of law, but *legally* today is not #Newtonmas. You still have 3 days to go to when the birthday is, for all legal purposes; because the Calendar Act 1750 explicitly said when attaining N years of age should happen for all legal purposes, for people born before 1751.

This is #EnglishLaw. So, obviously, it would be entirely improper for an important case to be heard by a judge who could not be relied upon to independently find for the government. 😉

The ̶B̶r̶i̶t̶i̶s̶h̶ ̶G̶o̶v̶e̶r̶n̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ High Court of England & Wales has independently decided that the #PalestineAction case should be heard only by the sort of independent chaps who independently recognise that #Palestinians are like the #Irish: inherently #terrorist.

Another #AppallingVista avoided. Rest easy, #LordDenning.

Who are they elected to protect ?

Why didn't they #StopArmingIsrael, #SurveillanceFlights and their #ComplicityInWarCrimes before PA's direct actions ?

What is #Elbit doing in the UK ?

Aren't there sufficient tools in #EnglishLaw to deal with #NonViolentDirectAction ?

Still, they preferred to " #Terrorize " hundreds of peaceful protesters and principled citizens, including faith ministers, health workers, frail pensioners and the disabled...

Is #GoogleAnalytics4 actually #GDPR compliant or not? There seems to be a lot of conflicting posts online about it - with a bunch of them seeming to be written by competing analytics services.
