Apparently the jury at the #Filton6 re-trial have been asking 'awkward questions' about evidence they have been presented with such as the number of security guards present; who was operating tbe CCTV footage; why are there apparent gaps in the recordings they have been shown; and why had the court refused to include a certain security manager from giving evidence This looks bad for the g'ment who have asked for this retrial #PalestineAction

@Geri@mastodon.online one suspects that the jury knows something bad is going down and that they are not being told the whole truth about this trial, hopefully they will reach a verdict of not guilty as a consequence

@Geri@mastodon.online I’m really glad they are asking questions! And some good ones too! Nothing better than a jury that seeks all of the evidence and not just what is “presented” Hopefully it will go well for the defendants (the people not the government)

@Geri@mastodon.online I wonder what happened to the oath: “I swear,…, that the evidence I shall give, shall be the truth, THE WHOLE TRUTH, and nothing but the truth.” How can any witnesses abide by this oath and then fail to mention the situation in Gaza, the supply of weapons, the killing of innocents, the very motivations for the alleged crime? These are relevant facts to the event; not heresay, not opinions, facts. Makes a mockery of your English system of ‘justice’.
