Seriously, are they trying to play 'hide the motivation', or are the London police actually this stupid?
Since there were originally votes involved, does that make this Sander's precious Democratic Socialism?
Venezuela took its strongest step yet toward one-man rule under the leftist President Nicolás Maduro as his loyalists on the Supreme Court seized power from the National Assembly in a ruling late Wednesday night.
The ruling effectively dissolved the elected legislature, which is led by Mr. Maduro’s opponents, and allows the court to write laws itself, experts said.
The move caps a year in which the last vestiges of Venezuela’s democracy have been torn down, critics and regional leaders say, leaving what many now describe as not just an authoritarian regime, but an outright dictatorship.

Meanwhile,
political prisoners continued to be arrested. In January, Mr. Maduro
established a new “anti-coup commando” to round up political dissidents
accused of treason. The group has taken aim at members of the
opposition, arresting many, including a city councilman from central
Venezuela and a deputy lawmaker in the National Assembly.
In
February, after CNN en Español, the network’s Spanish language channel,
broadcast an investigation that linked Venezuela’s vice president to a
passport fraud scheme in the Middle East, Mr. Maduro ordered the channel
off the air. The government has blocked the Caracas bureau chief of The
New York Times from entering the country since October.
