Damo Kernow also covered this, but you are the only two I have seen. UK justice is a sham.

The absence of transparency about why the switch was made and who actually made it is a serious major point. These last minute changes without any explanation seriously undermines the public s confidence in the independence and impartiality of this court. The judges newly appointed have proven to previously favour the government, why have there not been three non government senior judges appointed? Could there be a Judicial Review of the Judicial Review? I wonder if a complaint by the barristers for the defendants as legally there should be no involvement by anyone involved in the case to interfere with the judiciary in the case.

Should the defendents refuse to attend court? This situation has the integrity of kangaroo court.

The irony of prosecuting 1000's on jumped up charges .

Maybe the courts will find space in our overcrowded prisons for these hard core terrorists... The over 80's wing . What a shit show 🤷🏻😥🤬

More perfidy from a supposed 'leader'.

Surely, a leader should be one who models sound moral behaviour and decision-making. One who models strength balanced by humility, equity, justice and respect.

Surely, a political leader should be one who willingly and voluntarily chooses to stand aside from judicial involvement and maintain the integrity of the separation of powers.

Surely, a leader should be a caring, considerate, objective, intelligent, fair-minded human being who opposes prejudice, bigotry, division, hatred, difference ...

Why is it that we have few, if any, leaders who correspond to these criteria?

I couldn’t be more disappointed with Starmer. This is clearly a stitch up - of the kind Trump regularly pulls. Which sane person, which compassionate person, which moral person does not oppose genocide and wishes to stand against it publicly?

Starmer & his enabling succofants truely are scum. 🇵🇸✊🏼✊🏿

i 'liked' your comment, but truly i'm not 'disappointed' with starmer because i knew what he was like from the moment he walked out on corbyn in the chicken coup. my real feeling about starmer is horror that he's the 'leader' of our country.
