It’s not enough to restore my faith in the general public, but it’s welcome news at least.

It's my understanding that the general public's opinion of the PA ban and subsequent legal trials of its members is overwhelmingly in the defendants favor.
But I'm not sure how in touch I am with the British public.
Anyway, I hope your faith in the British public continues to heal.

I hope the British public continues to increasingly act in such a way as to deserve our faith.

Any officer of the court who demands extrajudicial exceptions to jury trials, needs to be sentenced extrajudicially.

TIL that the draconian and authoritarian response to criticism of the Israel genocide on Palestine is called "Operation Recomply, led by Metropolitan Police’s Counter Terrorism Command".
