The High Court has ruled that the government's ban on Palestine Action was "unlawful" yet the government are going to waste more of taxpayers money on appealing the decision.
Why don't they just accept that they got it fundamentally wrong & apologise?
This is another perfect example of why the House of Lords needs to be abolished and replaced with a more modern, accountable second chamber. Redwood was wrong about EVERYTHING. He lied about EVERYTHING. Yet there he is, a Lord of total incompetence, with a job for life at taxpayers' expense. ๐ก๐ก๐ก

Isn't it all a distraction from Epstein? Mid terms look ominous. Where are the checks and balances? Shouldn't they be kicking in around now?
