While this Meghan humbug is going on.....the new Republican Party of Creeps and Crooks are quietly altering the voting systems in their states making it difficult for the coloured people and "immigrants" to be able to vote. Can you imagine that happening in Britain.....or has it????
They're trying, Smithy. Voter ID has become popular with both the Republicans and Tories, for example. Our mob haven't quite mastered it like the Trumpsters, yet. I'm sure they'll get there eventually.
The Met will rightly take a proverbial kicking for last night's events, but make no mistake, this was policy ordained from Patel and the Home Office. And there's worse to come when the new Policing Bill inevitably becomes law this week. Essentially, banning public protest - and even specific sections to deal with one vocal / megaphoned individual who has embarrassed the Tories for the past 5 years! The UK is days away from being a Totalitarian regime!
The other thing to mention is that you didn't see the Met being so heavy-handed when Kate Middleton was there As for the policing bill there's so much of it that's utter bollocks: it was effectively brought in to prevent the BLM protests which happened nine months ago, with the smirking bully's comments making that abundantly clear (while also further damaging the image of the humble choc ice everywhere), and then the initial shutting down of the vigils on Friday was done under the guise of a Covid measures - which was immediately undermined by pointing out that schools are open, public transport is getting back to full capacity, and pubs will be reopening shortly
No UK Gov support in Court for her. You could argue that might actually be a better outcome based on the fact she's still in Iran as an indirect result of Johnsons previous intervention. Looks like new 'charges' have been laid, so poor womans nightmare continues..
