Statement from Quakers in Britain about tonight's police raid on Westminster Meeting House. Guys, I don't think they're buying the Met's line about the nonviolent direct action training being a cover for plotting "mass shoplifting"

Here’s the same statement from UK Quakers about the police raid on Westminster Meeting House, but on the website and with nicer formatting: https://www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-events/news/quaker-meeting-house-raided-by-metropolitan-police-again

Historically, nobody raiding Quaker meeting houses has ever been one of the good guys.

I mean this was the Met again, so it didn't need saying, but still.

@petealexharris @considermycat The raid does serve the important function of letting the Quakers know that their moral compass is still sound.

If I were a Quaker and my meeting house WASN’T getting raided periodically by The Hate, I'd start to wonder if I was doing everything I could to combat injustice.

@considermycat Well chaps, I don't know how else to say this as a German, but it very much seems like you're actually a bit ahead of us with the fascism this time around. 😞

@considermycat hard to believe and yet, the world we now live in

Missed The Onion headline:

"Police say they shut down Quaker shoplifting training"

No one would have been fooled - too silly by half.
