This is what happens when you don't have freedom of speech or assembly. When are the #British going to wake the fuck up and demand those rights be ensconced in your Constitution or whatever is used over there?

#Charged with a fucking #terrorism #offense/ #offence for #flying a #pro-Palestinian #flag.

What a fucking shame and
#disgrace. This really makes Chuck look like a fucking asshole since all of these prosecutions are being done in his name. #UKpol #FreedomOfSpeech #FreedomOfPress #FreedomOfAssembly #KingCharlesIII #Israel #GazaGenocide #PalestinianGenocide #FreePalestine #FreeGaza #FuckTheBritishPolice #ACAB

#Woodward currently represents #WaltNauta, one of the two Trump employees also #charged in the documents case, in addition to having previously repped the IT head, who is not named in Wed's filing.

Prosecutors have said the employee is likely to testify at #trial, posing a potential #ConflictOfInterest for Woodward, who will face the prospect of a fmr client testifying against a current client. (& who is paid by the primary actor in the case)
