JaeStatement 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"
Here’s the same statement from UK Quakers about the police raid on Westminster Meeting House, but on the website and with nicer formatting: https://www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-events/news/quaker-meeting-house-raided-by-metropolitan-police-again
Quaker Meeting House raided by Metropolitan Police again
Yesterday evening, 5 March 2026, for the second time in a year, the Metropolitan Police raided a Quaker Meeting House and arrested a number of young nonviolent activists who were meeting there, on the grounds that they were conspiring to commit a criminal act.

@considermycat hard to believe and yet, the world we now live in

Darker KnightThe tag 'Institutionally Corrupt' has been used against the Met for many years.
But now it has to be added to the pro-zionist 'law makers' that exert a dark control over western government's.
I call it. 'The Epstein Coincidences'
Unredacted Epstein files now@darkerknight @considermycat That would make an ‘epic’ thriller.
Tyrone Slothrop@considermycat ah yes the Quakers, universally known as a hive of villainy. 😤

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.
Angus McIntyre@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.
Simon Brooke@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.
skuaMissed The Onion headline:
"Police say they shut down Quaker shoplifting training"
No one would have been fooled - too silly by half.
⁂ Fish Id Wardrobe@considermycat what bothers me here is that the only online news source i'm able to find this in is Catholic News.
Good on them, but i would have thought it was worth a mention in the Guardian or something?
Theta Sigma@considermycat “It was at this point the Quakers thought, screw it, if we’re going to get arrested anyway, let’s start training for violent insurrection.”
Izzy@considermycat Quakers training for "mass shoplifting"? Couldn't they at least come up with something … more convincing? Like, vegetarians training for mass meat consumption at a steakhouse, or something?

@considermycat It's never comfy for Quakers when there's a King Charles around! Prove me wrong!
