Just stop protests

-

in THE Queen’s Speech, the government proposed Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion protesters who blight other people’s lives should get a maximum jail sentence.

in light of the lenient way some of the judiciary treat them, shouldn’t a law be brought in giving them a minimum sentence?

THE pomp and ceremony of the Queen’s Speech looked like a netflix historical drama.

The gold braid and breeches are as distant from the 21st century as jousting and suits of armour.

The presence of royalty whose position is dependent only on an accident of birth is incongruou­s in the halls of elected government.

it’s time for Britain to move confidentl­y into the future, leaving all signs of the feudal system to the history books.
