This continues to be the case. Not a single national news outlet in the UK has reported on the policing of British pro-Palestinian journalists. Not one of them has thought to investigate what ‘Operation Incessantness’ might mean for press freedom.
Not one of them has reflected on the precedent set by the use of anti-terror laws for reporting on Gaza.
Mainstream news outlets, however, are perfectly prepared to report on police raids where they happen outside the UK. The Guardian, for example, has published many articles on arrests of journalists overseas, for example in Russia, China, Somalia and India while the BBC has reported on harassment of journalists in Cambodia, Venezuela and Iran.
A perfect example of rules for thee but not for me.
