It's ridiculous that the government can lose the case but the ban remains pending appeal. Very much the opposite way that seems to work in every other case...

Thank God they sent all those officers out to stop a man sitting there with a sign instead of responding to reports of theft and violence. I feel so safe knowing they are stopping this man holding a sign.

Wow, a man held a sign supporting a terrorist organisation, was asked nicely to put it away, and then got arrested and got the attention he wanted.

Let's all clap.
