Jeremy Paxman asks his opening question 3 times & still doesn't get an answer. Spycop Mark Kennedy had been arrested with climate activists & his exonerating evidence had been withheld from the court by the police & CPS. 20 people were wrongfully convicted.

Starmer was in charge of the CPS & and was trying to defend a whitewash report saying it was all just an accidental one-off. But we knew spycop Jim Boyling 'Jim Sutton' had done the same thing. It wasn't a one-off at all, it was a systemic problem with the CPS & police.
Starmer said he'd only found out about Boyling at lunchtime that day, but it had been widely known for 6 weeks

Starmer was desperate for the police to take all the blame and not admit his agency's collusion in creating miscarriages of justice.
More than 50 people have since had convicitons quashed, & who knows how many more miscarriages of justice are being left to stand?
This should be a HUGE scandal.
