Britain?s Judiciary is Biased to its Core Tue Sep 23, 2025 20:08 | Dr David McGrogan

The Exaltation of the Cross Tue Sep 23, 2025 15:00 | Chris Larkin
Church leaders are too quick to condemn Tommy Robinson and the Unite the Kingdom march, says Chris Larkin. We don't know what Jesus would have made of our politics, but we can?t just assume he?d have been a Lib Dem voter.

Jump To Comment: 1 2Latest reports say that the defence's case hinges on the fact that their is a time discrepancy based on a few seconds. The prosecution's case is that the assault and beating took place over the best part of a minute and is far more than that caught on the video footage.
Case resumes tomorrow morning.
Interesting morning and afternoon. Missed the first half hour or so, but Brian Hayden is doing very well under a lot of pressure from the defence lawyer, who admittedly is quite good at his job.
The linguistic/semantic messing around his statement (how sure is '98%' sure?) by the defence was a bit pathetic. The judge entertained it but didnt seem too impressed or interested in the line the defence was taking. Basically the defence was trying to say that if Brian had made a mistake when he said the first Garda (who hit him in the neck) was the same as the second Garda (who hit him in the arm), then he was probably making a lot more mistakes. Nonsense.
The afternoon session for the defence seemed to hinge on approximately four seconds of footage where Keith Goff had taken a swing at Brian but missed. They were saying that Brian identified this EXACT moment as the time when he was hit. The last remark of the day was when Brian said no, it happened just before this, off-camera. So tomorrow should be interesting.
