        <description><![CDATA[As part of Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 a group of young people pulled down a publicly-owned statue of Edward Colston, slave trader and philanthropist, in a public area of Bristol and dumped it the harbour. Four of them were caught on CCTV and were prosecuted for criminal damage.<br />
A jury of 12 people found them not guilty with a majority of 11 to 1.<br />
<br />
But the angry reactions from the 'hang em and flog em' brigade have been quick to come.<br />
Some would have been happy if the four had received 10 year prison sentences.<br />
Tom Hunt the vice-chairman of the Common Sense group of Tory MPs said the judgment 'set a worrying precedent for others who wish to ransack our country's past'.<br />
I'm really worried that this government, with a large majority, will, or are already, bringing in even more draconian rules against fundamental freedoms of protest.]]>
