Surely Edeline Lee could knock something up in her size.

More shameful news

motosunburn.bsky.social•66 days ago

This is so wrong.

I have no compassion against JSO idiots. They do harm, period. Doing things like block highways and gluing themselves to places makes me wish they get removed WITHOUT using the solvent, or use the metal cutter to remove their pipe-chains and ignore where their appendages are.

Once again, an outsourced provision is unfit for purpose, with service failures waved through by the government.

What is the point of a service contract?

What happened to ankle tags?

great-thoth.bsky.social•66 days ago

She has arthritis, so can't wear them.

bikeymcbikeface.bsky.social•66 days ago

Oh.

fanofprincephil.bsky.social•66 days ago

This is outrageous! Good Lord!

Is political interference in the justice system ever acceptable?🤷🏻‍♂️

I don't think she should be banged up at all at her age but Lefty needs to get some Facts & Logic.

Blocked M25 means people missed
CANCER TREATMENT and FUNERALS and the rest.

Non violent does not automatically equal non harmful.

I'm sure all the 'gender criticals' will be supporting her. 🤔

notyournhaama.posts.art•66 days ago

Nah they will claim she's trans or some other bogus bs cos she doesn't fit current beauty standards.

bsazzled.bsky.social•66 days ago

Pleased to see it 👏🏾🙌🏾✊🏾

peterwelsh68.bsky.social•66 days ago

Such misjustice served here!

Repugnant treatment of a peaceful protestor is wrong on so many levels.

The story was run on Radio 4 Today and surprisingly they didn't ask the CEO of Serco the tag provider to explain their lack of service delivery for which we are owed. Another of their failures!

UK = banana republic

This seems unlikely when women consistently receive lighter sentencing than men for the same crimes. I can't imagine she'd complain about that form of discrimination, however.

twinklebutt.bsky.social•66 days ago

Since there are plenty of cadaverously skinny men around, her claim of gender bias is as specious as her claims of innocence.

Lots of narcs in the replies to this tweet

stevebower.bsky.social•66 days ago

Er, no. She's just skinny. Gender is irrelevant. Pick the right fights.

bookworm17.bsky.social•66 days ago

It is a gender issue, woman tend to have slimmer wrists and more flexible hands/wrists. The same problem exists when handcuffing females. Whilst men's wrists are often too large for standard issue, or require two sets are due to inflexibility.

secretsquidgle.bsky.social•66 days ago

It’s hard to find much sympathy for someone who was prepared, nay expecting to go to jail when she knowingly committed her crimes.

It’s all valuable PR after all. Which I suspect is the point.

mandoqueer.itch.io•64 days ago

Narc ^

notyournhaama.posts.art•66 days ago

I mean if thats her sentence, they should work with her, not punish her further due to their own incompetence.

raouligan.bsky.social•66 days ago

Particularly when the provider of tags to Serco has confirmed they have them in the right size just Serco doesn’t have them…

timbleman.bsky.social•66 days ago

She is

bournemouth4eu.bsky.social•66 days ago

This is pretty appalling, isn't it?
