- Aside from the casual cruelty of this story (ministers going on immigration raids is foul), this is such poor framing. Being bailed is specifically *not* ‘walking free’. Perpetuating misinformation like this makes the whole system worse. news.sky.com/story/theres...
- Reposted by LottieThis is essential: a democracy *must* know who is paying its politicians and where that money is coming from. Cryptocurrency is *designed* to make that impossible. The whole point is to lift payments outside the scrutiny of the state.
