I couldn't make it to the trial to give them support, but I'm hoping for a favourable outcome for them. The whole trial along with the charges are a complete fix.

the longest vegan A/L trial in UK history?

Good luck to the six for challenging SOCPA!

Till now I never understood the reason of the policy and prudence of the Spaniards in suffering the Inquisition among them:and certainly it will never be well with us, till something like the Spanish Inquisition be in England.
The London recorder`s observation on a trial :Penn and Meade.

I'm sure that this was the Sequani Seven at the start - what happened to the seventh?

The No.seven`s plea was called a plea BARGAIN! for some unfathomable reason. Beware Offerings from persecutors. So a deal was done.

There seems to be confusion about guilt - one is but the others say they are not.

Sometimes people are persuaded to plead guilty through legal advice - (lawyers tend to be conservative human beings who are capable of making mistakes, or being blinded by their own prejudice) - this does not necessarily mean that the defendant is actually guilty, nor does it mean that the other six are.

What is the basis of your confusion here?

Get down to the court on Tuesday May 6th. Check it out for yourself ... saying that, you may just have been present there for the last 16 weeks anyway. We'll never know!

with the six.

All the best, stay strong.

Freedom to Protest!

Dear Confused,
To avert any misunderstanding you may have:Everyone USED to be innocent until proven guilty,the events that are unfolding must convince or at least be easing to your confused state these facts.
The process that is happening,on a global scale, (although I will concentrate on this country)......
You are seen at a protest,you are photographed and or filmed at that protest,you may be arrested if you are not animal rights, if you are you will be arrested because the computer says YES, It also says ALL Protest outside animal testing establishments and companies that are involved or connected to same, will not be tolerated. So if you decided to protest outside a company that had just been dealing with the blocked drains of the above,you would be seen to be guilty of: Interfering with a contractual relationship, I shall not go on about the legal implications,just suffice to say the home secretary has the right under law to extend this and other laws contained in S.O.C.P.A. 2005.To any situation!!!
You may be arrested on the spot if you are lucky,the police do not like the thought of any a/r people having `luck,so you hear a noise ,like a howitzer shell hitting your front door if it is not already open.The next thing you will hear will be` I arrest you blah blah blah.You are transported to some station of the arresting ....ers then locked up after all the other formalities have been played out,you are then placed in a cell,stinking of urine mixed with air freshener,the pits.You are in there for a lot longer than you think..9hrs?...24?hrs more? they do what they want and take their time about it,and they want to give them more time?....
Food is optional,although there are rules governing food and drink for persons in custody,Its Optional .
You then have a chance to consult with a duty solicitor,what the duty is who knows, then is the time to get confused.You will be amazed at the questions you will be asked, especially as you have had no food and been breathing bad air for X amount of hours.Anyway you will have getting home on your mind,although you could be remanded in custody.
You will have paperwork coming out of your ears while you wait two years for the trial,worrying losing weight,insomnia etc.Then you find that you are in a court of law`what could possibly go wrong now that I am in a court of law`You are about to find out just how perverted justice can become, from the start you will become so stupefied and at the same time numbed by the prosecutors badgering of prosecution witnesses, until he gets what He wants the jury to hear.You will be astounded by the lack of any challenges from your defence team when you know lies are being extracted from the witnesses.All this is dragged on and on for weeks? months? because the case against you is really what every reasonable person believes in, `Your right to protest`.You cannot believe that you have a case to answer,you are not allowed to protest in a democracy?
You cannot interfere with any form of income to the government of any capitalist/police state/call it what you will.The judge will point this out to the jury, in not the same words,but thats what he is telling them many many times. Oh! and just to make sure, the head kangaroo goes over the prosecution case, with embellishments added,these are called Judges !!! These are called courts of Justice! You cannot believe it,how can this be....MMMM a whiff of something sweet to some but death to others...if you win this case you will be promoted to a higher level,we need people like you. Mein Gott! What on earth has this country come to. Justice No Way..Hang your heads in shame.
Shit now I`m confused.
anyway why should one be punished before a trial,why is the government trying to do away with legal aid?and why is the government going to do away with jury trial.and why won`t any Q.C take up the cases.
They can also hang their heads in shame.
One of the most prominent QC`s in the country does pro bono work.
Still, No fucker lives forever.
