Tony Greenstein stood trial for terrorism and was acquitted. His speech to the jury is compelling in which he exposes the power the state welds through the new terrorism act.
A long read but very much worth it.

Should-be-required reading. Always remarkable how something can both fill your heart and break it at the same time. It begs the questions: what in the tapdancing fuck are we doing and what have we allowed ourselves to become?

Long, but please read when you can: the closing statement of Tony Greenstein at the end of his trial in August on trumped-up 'terrorism' charges.

I hope every textbook on political science that emerges from our dark times will include this speech.

I’m not a lawyer but I think this is a pretty solid closing argument. I guess the jury did as well.

"The devil exists amongst those who deliberately starve children to death because they rationalise that those children will only grow up to be terrorists. It exists among those who bomb tent encampments and literally burn children and their parents alive."

The right to tell the truth, and the freedom to protest, are under grave threat in the UK at present. The case linked to below is instructive, and I recommend reading the concluding speech that Tony Greenstein delivered to the jury at his trial - see greghadfield.medium.com/tony-greenst...

Given a chance to hear all the facts, not just the ones curated by the Crown, the jury accepted Greenstein’s arguments, including his accusation that the judiciary was readily conniving in the growing authoritarianism unleashed by the UK's complicity in genocide.

Have you have heard of this trial, a man being prosecuted addressing the jury direct & the judge directing them to ignore the ramblings of an old man!!

A profound speech fighting for liberty & freedom of speech.
This is why we must keep jury trials.

Do read Tony Greenstein's masterly speech to the jury, who acquitted him of the charge. It's wonderfully constructed and clearly persuaded the jury of his integrity and moral stature. greghadfield.medium.com/tony-greenst...
