Bringing the Polis into disrepute

A Scottish pro-Palestine activist is facing charges for “threatening and abusive behaviour” after reading a poem about children killed by Israel. Ironically one written by Michael Rosen. I wonder whether they will be a seeking a warrant for his arrest as well.
I really thought we were being a little more sensible in Scotland.
