Quick Roundup: Bristol Cases

News, Dec 18th Info via Freedom and Bristol ABC

This week has seen a number of cases from the rebellious city come before the dock related to both clashes with police and the 2020 toppling of Edward Colston’s statue.

In a classic case of the Shock Doctrine the far right British Govt has also rushed through more new legislation abolishing Human Rights. Meanwhile we are , like most of the population, now VACCINE JUNKIES dependent on getting a third shot of the “Pfizer Poison” which “doesn’t even prevent Covid or stop its spread and is causing irreversible health problems and deaths”

The Colston Four have been getting a particularly well publicised court showing, while a trickle of other verdicts are coming in related to the riot in March.

Ryan Roberts

The most punitive case of the week was that of a 25-year-old person of no fixed abode accused of burning a cop car and shouting abuse at officers, who was given 14 years by Judge James Patrick for their role in the March 21 protest against the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill.

The rally, provoked by repeated attacks from armoured cops, turned into serious clashes which provided the most angry expression of spring’s wave of protests.

A jury convicted Ryan of rioting, attempted arson with intent to endanger life, attempted arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered, and two counts of arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered.

As we collectively face an increasing level of social and environmental crises around the world, many people are questioning how the State—a system that wreaks so much destruction—even came to exist and why it has such a stranglehold on us.

The price of natural gas in Europe on Tuesday rose to $1,400 per 1,000 cubic meters after Germany said Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline could not be greenlighted for launch, citing rising tensions on the Ukrainian border.

The price of January futures on the TTF hub in the Netherlands rose 5.5% to $1,428 per 1,000 cubic meters at 7:04am GMT, or $138 per megawatt-hour in household terms, according to data from the Intercontinental Exchange.

A day earlier, gas prices in Europe jumped around 10% after German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Russia’s newly constructed Nord Stream 2 pipeline could not be put in operation because it did not meet the requirements of EU energy law. Berlin suspended the pipeline’s certification process last month because its ownership structure failed to comply with the EU’s gas directive, which forbids the same company from supplying and selling energy within the bloc.

Baerbock, however, noted that the escalation of tensions on the Russian-Ukrainian border was “also a factor” in delaying the pipeline’s launch. This is due to Berlin’s agreement with Washington that Russia cannot use Nord Stream 2 as a political weapon in its relationship with Ukraine.

The energy crisis on the continent deepened further after Belarus renewed its threats to cut off European gas supplies from Russia via the country’s pipeline network if more EU sanctions were imposed over the ongoing migrant crisis on Belarus’ western border.

On Sunday, American Secretary of State Antony Blinken told reporters that the US would do what it could to obstruct Nord Stream 2’s operation “if Russia has renewed its aggression on Ukraine.”

The pipeline was fully completed in September, but has not yet begun operation because of difficulties in getting officially certified. In November, German regulators announced that Nord Stream 2’s operator, based in Switzerland, would need to register as a German company before the certification process could continue.

Russian energy company Gazprom has said that gas is ready to flow as soon as the project is given the green light.

In an interview published on Tuesday in the German newspaper Die Welt, Nehammer, who was elected Austrian chancellor earlier this month, was asked if the Austrian government will continue to support Nord Stream 2. He replied, “Of course,” adding that he expects the pipeline to begin operating soon.

“I don’t consider it necessary to connect Nord Stream 2 with Russia’s behavior in Ukraine,” he went on, referencing a recent political standoff between Moscow and Kiev. “The EU can only hurt itself by doing so. Nord Stream 2 doesn’t only serve Russia’s interests – Germany, Austria, and other EU countries will profit from it. Nord Stream 2 is a European project, which shouldn’t be used as a tool to pressure Moscow.”

We are entering the second Holiday season since the pandemic hit us. We are also about to enter a brand new year, where, again, the uncertainty of the pandemic is still shivering down our spines. We know that this nightmare is most likely far from over. What’s worse is that the pandemic is not the […]

Serious questions need to be answered as to why Boris Johnson’s Government have decided to restrict the freedoms of the unvaccinated population through the introduction of Vaccine Passports, when the latest official data shows that the vaccinated population have accounted for 3 in every 5 Covid-19 cases, 3 in every 5 Covid-19 hospitalisations, and 4 in every 5 Covid-19 deaths, in England since August 16th 2021.

During a national Covid-19 briefing that took place on Tuesday December 8th, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom announced that ‘Plan B’ would be implemented in England from Wednesday December 15th, which would entail ‘working from home’ (if you can) orders, and the introduction of Vaccine Passports.

The reason given for the commencement of ‘Plan B’ is that it has to be done to protect the public from the alleged new Omicron variant of the Covid-19 virus. A variant which as of December 11th, has failed to cause a single fatality in the UK, with just several hundred cases allegedly being confirmed.

A new law will come into effect from Wednesday December 15th, which will state that Vaccine Passports will become mandatory for entry to nightclubs and other large venues, including Premier League football matches and concerts. We’re told they will be required for indoor settings of 500 people or more, outdoor settings of 4,000 people or more, and any setting with 10,000 attendees or more.
