It's actually quite delicious that Joanna wouldn't have had the time to take on Marion's case if the SNP hadn't been arsey and hustled her off the front benches.

That'll likely come back and bite them 😂

That is brilliant news. I can't imagine anyone better to represent Marion and expose this charge for the sham it is.

I wish the court would hurry up with the outcome of Harry Millers case - cos if the cops are found to be abusing their powers it will stop the woked getting their narc rage attended to by our public funded 'neutral' police forces..

Imagine if "man at bus stop" was a prosecution witness, and JC had to cross examine him. That would be very upsetting indeed.

Marion's case is going to be a great one to pay attention too. "Power to your elbow, Joanna".

Did you just say Priti Patel wants to get the police to stop with the hate crime recording of "they hurt my feelings"?

Not Scottish and not keen on the SNP but I love Joanna Cherry. One of my fave MPs (because of both feminism & challenging the prorogation - one of my Remain heroes) and I wish we had people like her in Labour. Good luck to her.

This is incredible coverage -- kudos to you both. And it reminds me of Meghan Murphy's comment saying she envied Americans' right to free speech. The day may come when this crap happens here, but I cannot imagine it doing so right now. So many Americans idolize Western Europe and I admit I'm rather an Anglophile, but Western Europe is not quite the idyll of liberal freedom Americans imagine it to be.
