All three journalists arrested last week for covering the #JustStopOil protests were arrested for “suspicion of conspiracy to commit a public nuisance”. A new crime under the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act passed by the Tory government. It carries a penalty of up to ten years in prison. It’s part of a government assault on our human rights, freedoms and ability to hold government to account. Time to take a stand.
@therightarticle @gem_abbott …and yet at the same time we have police officers who have committed actual crimes still on the front line. It beggars belief 🤦🏽‍♂️
