Census Refuser Derek Shields' Appeal at the Crown Court in Liverpool (Part 1)

Derek Shields was found guilty of failing to complete the 2011 Census at Liverpool Magistrates court in January.

http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2012/01/491235.html. He explained to the magistrates that he had refused to comply because of Lockheed Martin's involvement in the Census ('I'm not getting into bed with an arms dealer') and his Christian faith. Today, the Crown Court upheld that conviction for reasons that have yet to be given. An application by the prosecution (respondents) for £1,300 in costs was refused. No costs were awarded against Derek. Derek has made it clear that he does not intend to pay the fine imposed by the Magistrates Court. Read more >>
