Gericht verkündet „erste bekannte Verurteilung wegen eines ‚Gedankenverbrechens‘ in der modernen britischen Geschichte“. Ein Armeeveteran wurde heute verurteilt, weil er in der Nähe einer Abtreibungsklinik still gebetet hatte.

This wasn’t a “thoughtcrime”. He was protesting within a certain distance from an abortion clinic where it is illegal to protest.

> The safe zone, introduced in October 2022, bans activity in favour or against abortion services, including protests, harassment and vigils.

> During the case, brought by BCP Council, the court heard Smith-Connor had emailed the council the day before to inform it about his silent vigil, as he had done on previous occasions.

> On the day, he was asked to leave the area by a community officer who spoke to him for an hour and 40 minutes – but he refused.

> A public consultation by BCP Council found 75% of 2,241 residents supported the introduction of a buffer zone at the site which had previously been a focal point for people to gather and pray.

FAFO. Also, let’s all cheer for the will of the local residents being enforced eh.

Fake news

Yeah, it seems he was arrested for breaching an established safe zone around an abortion clinic. He was asked to leave, but refused. Not a “thoughtcrime.” The source you link is a conservative site with a clear agenda.
