u/-Highly_Regarded-

• the judge invented a rule that it'd be a crime to let the jury know *anything* about the roots of the Israeli weapons company during the trial.
• a similar rule was invented that banned the defendants from stating their motivations and what kinds of evidence had resonated with them so strongly to lead to their actions
• reporting restrictions were added so that British media outlets were barred from mentioning these custom trial restrictions until just now
• the jury were barred from knowing that the CPS were pushing for a "terrorist connection" charge which would result in more than a decade in prison guaranteed when the evidence presented only showed criminal damage

Limiting a person's right to defence in such a blatant way is quite obviously compelling the jury by omission, which should result in the case being thrown out. Seeing how far our legal institutions — and government, are going to defend foreign companies (and to diplomatically protect the interests of a foreign nation with a hostile value system) has been quite eye opening.

Don't care if someone is left or right, Brits deserve a fair and unprejudiced legal system. Hopefully Starmer and Yvette Cooper's replacements aren't so compromised!
