I would condemn political violence unequivocally, not selectively. Whataboutery that de facto ends up legitimising far left thuggery in order to condone far right thuggery is v.unattractive, just as it would be the other way around.
-
In any event, my point was simply that it is v. helpful for violent protestors against the rule of law assisting the authorities with their investigation in this way.

All protests are above / against the law though that doesn’t really fly. Were the Iraq war protests undermining the authority of parliament to declare war?
-
No, most protests are within the law. Yours seems a very stupid claim to me. The theme of this protest seems weak to me - the right to commit contempt of court under the banner of free speech - but it was pursued peacefully & legally by most participants. Because free speech.
-
Clearly the violence is proecutable and I hope it is prosecuted. But it is evidently possible to protest the right to contempt of court of a convicted violent criminal. The price is simply mockery via counterspeech of the wilder claims made while doing so.

Anti-Gammon prejudice?
-
What a truly stupid comment that is.
