THREAD – A Whole Life Sentence for Freedom of Speech?

I was pleased to be the first to pledge my support for this Crowdfunder, organised by the @SpeechUnion (founded by @toadmeister) in support of Karen Sunderland.

crowdjustice.com/case/karen-sun… Karen, represented by barrister @Francis_Hoar, is an atheist and a passionate supporter of oppressed groups. An example of this is her opposition to China’s genocide of Uyghur Muslims but, ironically, she now stands accused of racism for criticising aspects of Islam.
