I'm still trying to process the bizarre scenes at Bristol Magistrates Court today.
A directions hearing was held for the controversial case of the police officer who Tasered Ras @Justice4Judah but it didn't happen...

#Bristol @CleoDanceBaton @pgmhart Everyone attended what I imagine the prosecution, defence & judge via video link from Westminster assumes would be a formal yet cordial chat about admission of evidence in the case where a police officer is charged with assault.

THREAD: The truth about James Dyson moving production abroad to Malaysia because he didn't get planning permission to expand in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, England, Britain.
(Not about Brexit or the EU)
pls RT far and wide. 1/n So there's loads of commentary about James Dyson (JD) w regards to Brexit etc.
One of the accusations against JD is that he moved production to Malaysia back in the early days.
Many counter that with the story that he was refused planning permission to expand, so moved abroad 2/n
