This ruling shows that proscribing Palestine Action was a grave misuse of terrorism laws.
Labour must accept its mistake, drop its appeal and stop wasting taxpayers' money suppressing civil liberties.
Degrading counter-terror powers is a genuine threat to national security.

It’s a real shame that Nigel Farage is too unwell to do interviews the morning after Donald Trump threatens us with sanctions.
Here he is with “the bravest man he ever met”. He campaigned to make Trump President, and has spent the last year enjoying all the chaos he has caused.

I am always in a weird situation. I make comics, but I don't feel I have any place in the comics world or publishing. My audience is almost completely OUTSIDE comics. People in comedy, film, writing, other disciplines, they're the ones who like my work.

A limestone anchor, found being used as a headrest in a burial at the post-Roman cemetery of Worth Matravers, Dorset #TombTuesday
An extremely rare find, it suggests the individual had connections to the sea, perhaps through fishing or trade.
