Agreed - but i guess they used the OP as a signpost for the thread to follow...although once you get past the first page nobody looks back to see what the OP is actually about, so it's a redundant warning, really.

Try posting the picture again and see if it is a redundant warning.
However: No further action will be taken by police after the Green party leader for England and Wales said he had made an “inadvertent mistake” and would not apologise to the bare faced bullshinner Farage any road....after “conducting inquiries” it had concluded that it was unlikely that the sharing of the image online would constitute a criminal offence, the Met added.

normal people apologise for mistakes - just shows what a piece of garbage he is by not being able to say sorry.

Ok what a surprise i see Zak gets away with 'it was a mistake to post that, Lucy didn't did she?'
Lucy Connolly (RW) deleted her social media post within hours, yet was arrested, prosecuted, pleaded guilty and ultimately imprisoned.
Ricky Jones (LW) publicly told a crowd that "we need to cut all their throats", accompanied by a throat-slitting gesture, but was later acquitted by a jury after being charged. No action taken.
Zack Polanski (LW) shared an Instagram post featuring a guillotine alongside "We're only making plans for Nigel"—widely understood as referring to Nigel Farage just weeks after the murder of a Reform politician. Despite refusing to apologise, the Metropolitan Police have now confirmed they will take no further action, concluding that sharing the image did not meet the criminal threshold. No action taken.
Whether these cases are legally distinguishable is one question. However, many people will inevitably ask why conduct involving political violence appears to attract such markedly different responses from the criminal justice system, i think we now how this happens, there is too much wiggle room which falls down to discussions behind closed doors.
Shameful that people even on here demonstrate such hatred for political figures in today's society, a Neanderthal mentality.

It's not "one question".
It's THE question.
As LC plead guilty, we will never know if she would otherwise have been acquitted.
Still on a hair trigger i see.
I'm sure you'll be willing to point out how many times Farage has apologised for mistakes, such as goading jewish pupils at his school.

whats your point ? because farage is a **** others are allowed to be too ?
Making a veiled death threat days after the murder of a reform politician is totally unacceptable.
He didn't.

Mods should have the capability to pin a floating message such that it appears at the top of every page if necessary.
So which entrepreneur is going to start printing t-shirts showing Polanski in a guillotine? Apparently it's been ruled that this is now absolutely fine and legal.
I take very little notice of politicians bumping their gums about stuff, because to varying degrees many of them are as bad as each other. Double standards in politics seems to know no bounds.
The t-shirt logo can be debated all day long, inclusive of the green dude liking and sharing the post. However Reform had tweaked things to make it look like he had actually started the thread (?) which wasn't the case.
And although not directly linked to this thread, what about things like Nige asking for cold hard rage? What about Trump's words and the following riots at Capitol in 2021, any chance of a connection do you think?
My point is this. Where there is a threat to a politician or politicians, the authorities should if course deal with them appropriately. When something tragic happens (e.g. politician killed) the perpetrator should face the full force of the law.
However, many politicians are playing their part in the current situation with growing tensions. In what way? By the very words that come out of their mouths. And if anyone thinks politicians don't know what they're doing when they use such words, they're thick.
