All charges have been dropped against six women who stormed the racetrack during the Derby in an animal rights protest witnessed by thousands of spectators. Six members of Animal Rising broke into one of the country’s biggest horse races two years ago but have just been told they will not face a crown court trial. The charges against them of causing a public nuisance at the track in Epsom, Surrey, have been dropped.
Despite the fact that there was near-universal CCTV and broadcast media evidence? What the hell are the CPS playing at? They've just given every nut and whackjob with a grudge an opportunity to disrupt the public with vitually no comeback...
They include Rose Patterson, 35, one of Animal Rising’s leaders. She said crown lawyers have lost their ‘appetite for prosecuting people trying to make the world a better place’ after dozens of protesters from Just Stop Oil and other groups have been locked up. She also pointed to the prison overcrowding crisis.
Another side effect of TwoTierKier's thin skin, then. Great. They are really rolling in now...
Charges against Greenpeace protesters who climbed onto former Prime Minister’s Rishi Sunak’s home in Yorkshire were also dropped on Friday. Both decisions come amid an overcrowding crisis in which Labour has freed thousands of prisoners early to free up space.

But some white OAP standing outside government offices and protesting quietly will probably be 'fully' prosecuted.
If the numpties in power won't prosecute these morons, because of prison overcrowding, why not give them suspended sentences, and the requirement to wear ankle tags? Possibly, with each one having a small explosive charge, which will go off if they continue to p*ss people off. They'll do it twice, at the most.

That is probably the aim, yes.
Floggem???
"...will probably be 'fully' prosecuted."
No 'probably' here, I fear...
"Possibly, with each one having a small explosive charge, which will go off if they continue to p*ss people off."
We can give the build contract to the Israelis!
"That is probably the aim, yes."
I suspect you're right.
