26 Police Officers were injured at today's riots but only 9 people were arrested. Compare that with the peaceful Palestine Action protest where 0 Police Officers were injured but nearly 900 people were arrested. The Government has got Law Enforcement ridiculously wrong.

Pockets picked Big pharma made £12bn excess profit from just 10 NHS drugs; profit mark-ups up to 23,000%. Energy companies £514bn operating profit since 2020. England Water companies £85bn in dividends, dump sewage in rivers. Govts subservient to corporations. Abuses continue. Wither democracy.
