🚨 BREAKING: Zarah Sultana uses parliamentary privilege to bypass court reporting restrictions and expose details of the Filton 24 re-trial. UK media has been banned from reporting key information. Zarah Sultana: “If convicted, they and 18 others will be sentenced as terrorists, but the jury will not be told that.” An MP going into Parliament to reveal what the press legally can’t report is rare - and explosive. This raises serious questions about transparency, justice, and what juries are - and aren’t - being told.

It's Autism Awareness Month, so let's bust a pretty common myth about autism. "Everyone's a little autistic." No hate if you've ever said this. But if you have, I hope you'll stick around for this. 🙂

I'm conducting research on student behaviour in situations of sexual misconduct at UK universities. I’m seeking university students in the UK for an anonymous survey. Please share with any uni students you know: cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/j… #bystander #criminology #sexualmisconduct

More than 1,000 signatures and counting chng.it/qyGbdptPqb Each week, sick pensioners, hospital patients, and people with cancer, dementia, mental health struggles and learning difficulties are convicted of crimes when they shouldn't be. Change can't come fast enough

This risks shifting #PrisonEducation from learning to some warped use-value (certificated-achievement-as-evidence-of-#rehabilitation). As I argue: crimeandjustice.org.uk/sites… and @VirtuallyRoss I argue here: journals.sagepub.com/doi/ful… That can be counter-productive! #CrimJustice
