Tony Greenstein won his case by choosing to tell the jury its context (his barrister could be punished for doing so). Once given a chance to hear all the facts, the jury accepted his arguments, incl that the UK judiciary were readily conniving in the state's growing authoritarianism. Tellingly, Greenstein’s victory was almost entirely ignored by the msm.
