150 years of civil disobedience celebrated in the UK but as soon as Zionist supremacy is challenged its all terrorism.
Curious how corporations can get a lot of stuff done for very cheap, practically free sometimes. But when it’s time to ‘calculate damages’, all of a sudden they take the borderline scam options that they would have never used. In addition to multiplying the end sum by 4 for good measure, of course.
Well, we’re fucked when real terrorists come along. Probably fully half of these supposed pro-palestine terror cells are undercover Special Branch trying to stir up vandalism so they can drum up some arrests anyway.
I remember the spycops trial.
In 2023, climate activists from Extinction Rebellion staged a similar protest against Barclays, breaking windows at the bank’s Canary Wharf headquarters and causing £500k worth of damage. But they were never treated as terrorists and avoided jail.
huh.
Different government, possibly different rules for prosecutors, or maybe even laws?
“£ 212k of damage”… For some paint and a window?
Barclays is bad at negotiating with repairers, or is taking a cut.
That’s the quote they gave to their insurance company
There are lots of ways to manage your money. And if they’re paying that much for repairs then I’d find someone else to manage your money.
That looks like a historic town centre building so the cost is likely for replacing the blocks with identical sandstone pieces in line with historic conservation laws. I suspect the paint won’t just clean off.
They’ve got plenty of money though.
Not replacing but restoration work involves studies of the materials to choose the right chemicals, meticulous cleaning (sometimes with a toothbrush) and even repainting with the exact color match which again involves studies, sometimes it goes as far as taking samples and running chromatography on them.

Didn’t the jury refuse to convict on terrorism charges? Or was that a different case?
The move comes despite the fact they were not found guilty of a terrorism offence and the jury was not informed about a potential terror sentencing.
Oh I guess the UK just doesn’t care about the jury.
Juries let people off, can’t have that!
Everyone’s a “terrorist” these days.
That’s the plan…resistance, unrest, pushback, feedback…no its terrorism.
It’s using language and reporting to get you onside with silencing those that speak up.
Trashy America-style sentencing
No, this is a UK-style sentencing happening in the UK which the governing Labour party encourages.
I’m a proud America hater, but this is more of a European tradition. Terrorism charges in America (all state-level or local; no federal terrorism charge exists) only exist as addons to other crimes, so this isn’t something that could’ve happened there.
“We have not been charged with, nor convicted of, any terrorism offence,” said Malik. “At no point during our trial did the prosecution seek to pursue anything to do with terrorism, and the jury were kept completely in the dark and were not told that if convicted, we could be sentenced as terrorists.”
It seems like this an add- on too.
TIL 😞
something english happening englishly in england:
wot are we, a bunch of yanks?
If IDENTIFYING as a Palestine Action Activist gets you MORE time in Jail then MURDER it’ll DETER people from being Activists! That’s the ONLY thing that’ll Happen!
But the antisemitism! Meanwhile this is just fine:
That’s the ONLY thing that’ll Happen!
For those that can’t seem to make 2+2=4…
If you get more time for using pray paint than murder… Might as well just murder instead of using spray paint.
That’s the idea
Corrupt judges need consequences
Wish it was just corrupt judges. But this is coming from most of the poltiical class
In fac, the judges might be true, but believe they have no alternative to following corrupt rules set by politicians.
Terrorist is the new communist
