In one day the police have managed to double the number of people arrested for demonstrating against the proscription of Palestine Action.

This is not a good look for a democracy, but then again Yvette Cooper & Keir Starmer seem to be happy to see peaceful demonstrators arrested under the Terrorism Act.

Its partly a lesson in destroying 'soft power'; just think what authoritarian rulers will say next time we complain about attacks on democracy!

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us The nauseating thing is, politicians are now going to say that terrorism has "hit an all-time high" and beg for more money to fight terror which means less money for roads, schools, and healthcare.

@threetails@mastodon.social @ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us and the worst part is: said politicions know they are lying!
And I don't mean
"#LyingWithNumbers" but rather "Saying the exact opposite of what all the data evidences"!
