    Mohammed AboHatab.. From all of us! Our hearts are shattered. Tonight, the nation is bidding farewell to one of its kindest and most passionate journalists in Gaza, the voice of our people who, along with his entire family, was murdered by the Israeli military in Khan Younes.

    If you're reading "The End of Policing" also read "Are Prisons Obsolete?" by Angela Davis, and "We Do This 'Til We Free Us" by Mariame Kaba.

    You can't take photographs of parliament from across the street without being stopped by police officers and you want us to believe that someone "mysteriously gained access" and disabled CCTV cameras?
