Quick Glance: US Supreme Court ruling against Black Lives Matter activist's appeal regarding protest incident

The US Supreme Court allowed a lawsuit by a Louisiana police officer against a Black Lives Matter activist, potentially impacting future public demonstrations.

DeRay Mckesson was represented by attorneys, including those from the American Civil Liberties Union.

The decision of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals could set a precedent for lawsuits against protest leaders based on the actions of participants.

The legal dispute arose from a protest in Baton Rouge in 2016 following the police intervention against Alton Sterling, a black man.

Quick Glance: Scottish Government Abandons 'World-Leading' Climate Target

The Scottish Government has abandoned its “world-leading” target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030.

Ministers will bring forward legislation to ensure the climate change target “better reflects the reality of long-term climate policymaking”.

Scotland will move away from legally binding annual targets to a five-yearly carbon budget approach.

A new package of climate action measures was announced, including tripling the number of charging points for electric vehicles and exploring a new integrated ticketing system for public transport in Scotland.

Quick Glance: Google terminates 28 employees after office occupation due to anti-Israel protests

Google terminated 28 employees on Thursday who had occupied its offices to protest against contracts with the Israeli government, as confirmed by a Google spokesperson.

The protesters were arrested and after refusing to leave the office of Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in Sunnyvale or the workspace in New York City for nearly 10 hours, they were transferred to administrative positions to urge Google to terminate the Project Nimbus contract and cease business with the Israeli government.

No Tech For Apartheid, a project by Jewish Voice for Peace and Linda Sarsour’s MPower Change, described the terminations as an "indiscriminate act of mass retaliation."

The office occupations at Google were accompanied by demonstrations on-site and in Seattle, aiming to compel Google to withdraw from the project to establish cloud-based data centers and transition a significant portion of the Israeli government's IT infrastructure to cloud-based servers.
