Three pages, no build step, no dependencies. Drop the folder on any static host and it works.
index.html the one-page brochure (A4, print-ready)
sources.html annotated source dossier, lean-flagged
hansard.html deep links into the Lords debate of 3 March 2021
style.css shared styles for sources + hansard
index.html is deliberately self-contained and does not use style.css.
Its print layout is tuned to A4 and I didn't want a stylesheet change to
silently break it. Edit it directly.
Upload all four files to the subdomain root. That's it.
- Netlify / Vercel / Cloudflare Pages — drag the folder into the deploy box.
- GitHub Pages — push to a repo, enable Pages on the branch root.
- Any web host — FTP/rsync into
public_htmlor equivalent.
No server-side anything. No JavaScript. No cookies, no analytics, no third-party scripts — nothing that needs a consent banner, which is deliberate.
The only external request is a Google Fonts stylesheet. If you'd rather have
zero third-party calls (worth considering given the subject matter and who
visits a site like this), delete the <link> tags in the <head> of each page
and the @import line at the top of style.css. The fallback stacks are
already in place and it degrades gracefully — heavier body serif, system
condensed for headings.
Open index.html, print, select A4, margins "None" or "Default", and make sure
"Background graphics" is on or the red blocks won't render. The site nav is
hidden automatically when printing.
Colours are CSS variables at the top of each file:
--ink near-black
--paint the red
--paint-deep darker red for links and small text
--manila the file-folder background
--paper page background
Fonts: Anton (display), Spectral (body), JetBrains Mono (citations, dates, statute references).
Two things go stale fast and will discredit the whole site if they're wrong:
-
The Barclays five have not been sentenced. Listed for September 2026. The defence argument that the damage wasn't sufficiently serious under s.1 Terrorism Act 2000 is live. Every page says "face" not "were". Keep it that way until there's an actual outcome.
-
The proscription is currently lawful. High Court quashed it in February 2026; Court of Appeal reversed on 15 June 2026 (Home Secretary v Ammori [2026] EWCA Civ 1721). Supreme Court permission is being sought. Anything saying the ban was struck down is out of date.
Update the "Updated" date in the .eyebrow of sources.html whenever you
change anything.
- Hansard — Open Parliament Licence v3.0. Reproduce freely, including
commercially, with attribution. The attribution line is already in the footer
of
hansard.html. - Legislation — Crown copyright, Open Government Licence. Same freedom.
- US federal press releases (DOJ) — public domain. Reproduce in full.
- Press articles — normal copyright. Link to them; don't republish them. The source pages link rather than reproduce, deliberately.
- An OG image so the two-headline pair renders when shared. The DOJ headline above the Intercept headline, same event, is the strongest single asset in the whole set and needs no commentary.
- A square social crop of the £500,000 / £212,805 comparison from the brochure. That comparison travels furthest with people who aren't already convinced.
- A dated changelog at the bottom of
sources.html. On a live legal story, visible version history is what separates a campaign from a rumour.
