However, a source with knowledge of the police’s early planning for this Saturday’s event said: “If they think that by turning up with significant numbers that we can’t arrest them for breaking terrorism laws, they need to think again.
“They will be arrested. However we have to do it, they will be arrested for breaking terrorism laws.”
I thought our prisons were full? Early release for real criminals but plenty of space for retired teachers, priests, and magistrates?
They are. Arrested doesn’t even imply “charged”; it’s a threatening tactic, but the pilice and the cps know nothing will get very far in court.
