Huh?
I have never owned a car and have been a cyclist my whole life. Does that help?
Thatās a separate issue to the one raised by the article.

I was responding to a question
I donāt understand these women. I know they want to vote and I support that. But itās naive to think that throwing themselves in front of horses and chaining themselves to stuff is going to work. Itās just pissing people off

Silly me.
Of course, Iād forgotten the tomato soup thown at the Van Gogh painting triggered the north sea decommissioning program 
Look, Iām not sure I agree with the tactics employed by JSO, and I suspect that some of the stuff they do is counter productive (and as Iāve previously said, Friends of the Earth have done more to stop UK Oil extraction over the last year through carefully targeted legal challenges than JSO have managed ever), but I donāt think a country with a shortage of prison spaces should be sending a 78 year old women to jail for what is essentially making a nuisance of herself.
The fact is that, at 78 years old, she has made a decision that she is happy to take whatever punishment the state can throw at her because she believes in the need for direct action.
You disagree with me, fine. Iām sure your absolutely sound with releasing a violent criminal early to make room for her.

Well Iām sure weāll both agree that the way the custodial decisions have been made by the previous and current governments is pretty dreadful
Governments make custodial decisions? Thats a new on on me unless Russia invaded last night.

Do they not influence policy decisions?
No, course not.
The current government had no influence over the sentencing of the recent sausage roll thieves
Of course not. Itās an independent judiciary. The government can set policy and introduce laws, but not interfere in specific cases. The sausage roll thieves may have been influenced to think that they could get away with anything by Farage & Co, but that is typical of the frog-faced liarās misinformation.
The rioter have now realised that itās a case of fuck around and find out.

In terms of the CPS or judges? The one thing with Starmer is that he is a stickler for process. I think we saw this with the Southport case in general as he left no grounds for interference in the judicial process at all.
