Police in Leicester arrested at least five journalists under the Terrorism Act while they were reporting on a protest outside a drone factory owned by an Israeli arms company.

The journalists were detained for two hours last Thursday at a UAV Tactical Systems factory owned by Elbit Systems, which makes weapons that are used in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

I, for one am delighted that my precious tax money is being spent protecting a multi billion pound arms company from scrutiny. Never mind looking after poor people, let's spend it on protecting the super rich corporate psychopaths.

    Well this is definitely dystopian, but I don't think it's boring per se.
