@fudge1 @fight_far @AnnaPembroke @pritipatel @UKLabour So neither you nor any other lawyer or MP have failed to declare a loan from the bank of mum & dad

Or #GeoffreyRobinson as #PeterMandelson did

Or any cop or judge

None of you have arranged your cashflow to artificially inflate your apparent earnings on a loan application

This is some true bullshit. A fully radicalized white man methodically builds and detonates a bomb like he saw in Speed complete with creepy music and a fresh, highly obvious target.

His girlfriend - who police considered mentally ill and didn’t shoot down in the street even as she sat next to guns on her porch - said he was building bombs.

The cops wandered over, knocked a bit, ran his name through a database and then said ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ welp I guess that’s that!

When a Black man or woman does any of these things it’s a damn festival. Bullets fly. Accusations rise. He was a follower of a militant preacher! He was a Muslim warrior!

And with this fucking turd its a mystery! Why did the skinny white dude drive an rv to downtown Nashville and try to blow up a telephone switch? Lord knows! Maybe he hated his service!?

Back at Westminster Magistrates’ Court this morning attempting to monitor a call over hearing in the case of @wikileaks publisher Julian Assange. This is the last such hearing scheduled before the extradition decision will be given on 4 January.

Thread. 1/

The goal posts for access constantly shift at this court, in a completely arbitrary manner. We are currently being told by a court official that no journalists will be allowed in (told they can access the Cloud Video Platform) and only two people can access the public gallery. 2/

At times, even under Covid measures, four journalists have been allowed into the well of this same courtroom, and five people into the public gallery. Two in total today is completely arbitrary. We’re told the access restrictions are the judge’s decision. 3/

We’re hearing that two seats in court are being held for @AusHouseLondon, so we circle back to the same issue as the “VIP” seats held in the September proceedings at the Old Bailey, when these “VIP” diplomats never took their seats, but they were held back from the public. 4/

Again, the only way for professional NGO observers to access these hearings (and do our job) is in person, as the court will not give us remote access. This is not only a barrier to open justice, but the court is creating unnecessary Covid risks as London heads towards Tier 3. 5/

THREAD: The following tweets are for the purposes of stories that will appear in Sunday Times Daily. The videos and images depicted may be upsetting but are deemed to be in the public interest. This is the story of the Ayanda "Borhey" Mtila as far as we were able to verify it.

On 13 October Mtila as defacto overlord of the Boko Harram gang, allegedly carried out his penultimate cash-in-transit robbery. Sources say he sustained a head wound in a shootout with security guards. Some friends believe he was killed by a fellow

He died two days later, on 15 October, after allegedly being in a coma for more than a day. His funeral was a spectacle, held on Nyanga Sports fields on 24 October and attended by hundreds of people. Sources say it was made possible by Paarl businessman Lukhanyo "Spur" Mangena.

The Capitol is mostly empty this morning but many remnants of yesterday remain.

Four bullet holes in the glass of the doors that lead to the House Capitol steps

And this is where the woman was shot. These are the doors to get into the “Speaker’s Lobby” off the House chamber. Three pains of glass missing. One is shattered. Shards of glass remain on the floor

And this is the entrance to Speaker Pelosi’s suit. Her wood and good placard is missing

These are the doors to the center steps. Where they first breached the Capitol.They are cast in iron from Italy and moved here in the 1860s or earlier. Double paned glass shattered

This is just outside those doors
