Today's Video Focus: A group of protesters demonstrated against a plebiscite for a new constitution, and counter-protesters were also present. The two groups met and had several discussions and confrontations. The police were trying to keep the groups apart by using tear gas and water cannons to disperse them.
Focus of the Day article: In two related judgments, Lieven J considered an application made by a Hospital Trust to withdraw treatment from a child receiving mechanical ventilation to keep him alive and an application for anonymity on behalf of his treating clinicians. The Trust succeeded in both. The decision has been upheld by the Court of Appeal. Full story - UK Human Rights Blog
