ACTIVISTS TRIED AS TERRORISTS: An interview with Ben Smoke of the Stansted 15

February 03, 2021

This week, Grace talks to Ben Smoke, one of the members of the Stansted 15: a group of activists who stopped a mass deportation flight from taking off from Stansted airport in 2017, before being tried under law designed to prosecute terrorists.
