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. They discuss the details of the protest and the trial, the government's barbaric approach to migration policy, and why successive Tory governments seem so adept at breaking international human rights law.For the full episode, support us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/aworldtowinpodFollow Ben on Twitter: https://twitter.com/bencsmoke See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
