We examined anti-protest laws across the west. Britain stood out, and not in a good way | Linda Lakhdhir

"In July, in a case that made international headlines, five fossil-fuel protesters were sentenced to four- and five-year sentences after participating in a Zoom call about staging climate protests on the M25.

"These sentences are longer than those imposed on many of those involved in #violent acts during the recent racist riots in Southport. They are the kinds of sentences that western governments routinely denounce when they are imposed on peaceful protesters in places such as #Cambodia and #russia

"While climate #protesters are being sentenced to long prison terms, UK prisons are full to the brim – with the government even releasing some violent offenders early because of overcrowding.

Britain now stifles peaceful dissent like a repressive regime. It’s time to roll back our anti-protest laws

Under the Tories, non-violent climate protesters were jailed for up to five years – and there is little sign that Labour will change tack, says Linda Lakhdhir, legal director of Climate Rights International

Great article on how #Tether (especially on #Tron) facilitates pig butchering scams and so on. Also goes into the extremely under-reported¹ fact that #FTX was a money laundry for Chinese capital flight.

¹ basically never reported in mainstream media even though it's blindingly obvious
