Statement from Quakers in Britain about tonight's police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don't think they're buying the Met's line about the nonviolent direct action training being a cover for plotting "mass shoplifting"

Historically, nobody raiding Quaker meeting houses has ever been one of the good guys.

I mean this was the Met again, so it didn't need saying, but still.

@petealexharris @considermycat The raid does serve the important function of letting the Quakers know that their moral compass is still sound.

If I were a Quaker and my meeting house WASN’T getting raided periodically by The Hate, I'd start to wonder if I was doing everything I could to combat injustice.

@angusm @petealexharris @considermycat as a former Quaker (and, indeed, a former clerk to a preparative meeting and a former member of the national Peace and Service Committee), I'm pleased to see the Society has not completely abandoned its principles.
