NOBODY should be prosecuted for rescuing animals from ABUSE!! This week, the Beagle Rescue Trials finished; Beau, Ben, and Dan were convicted of burglary after rescuing 5 beautiful beagle puppies from MBR Acres in June 2022.  All five trials are now over: 2 not-guilty, 3 rtantly - 23 Beagle puppies saved. This has been a seismic moment for the British animal movement. Yesterday they were sentenced, and they luckily all avoided prison. Beau and Dan received conditional discharges, whilst Ben received a 21-month suspended sentence and 180 hours of community service; they have also been ordered to pay a total of £2739 in court costs.

🚨And there you have it. Lindsay Hoyle misled the house by omitting the fact that he has the power to pause proceedings and ask the prime minister to answer the question. He was quite happy to do this with Boris, but he REFUSES to do it with Keir Starmer. Absolute disgrace.W

Bank of London fined puny £2m for filing fake documents with regulator to conceal its financial position. Fine reduced from £12m because that "would cause serious financial hardship." Peter Mandelson was a director until 2024. No exec fined/prosecuted. bankofengland.co.uk/news/2026/marc…

Where did all the British go? Apparently the British government wants the rest of the world to believe this is normal.

This letter from His Honour Simon Tonking (one of the original authors of the Crown Court Compendium) is well worth reading. Experienced legal figures warn these jury reforms are unworkable. A rushed, ill-judged change that risks real harm to justice.
