Badenoch said, after the murder of Stephen Lawrence, it was right that people wanted to ensure this did not happen again.
It led to the Macpherson report, she said.
[It] wanted to put right what went wrong with policing in the 1990s.
However, in attempting to do so, it also enshrined a principle which I believe is wrong that a racist incident is racist if it is perceived as racist by the victim or any other person.
Equality law, properly designed, should protect us all in the same way. It should be a shield, not a sword.
It should protect people from discrimination. It should protect people from being treated differently because of their race, sex, religion, sexuality, disability or age.
A senior combat medic in a Ukrainian mechanized battalion based in Donetsk Oblast was charged with stealing 16 FPV drones manufactured by Ukrainian defense-tech company General Cherry. He also tried to sell these drones, worth approximately $12,600, for $2,370, the Eastern Region Specialized Defense Prosecutor's Office said on Facebook.
General Cherry is the same company that recently developed the Bullet interceptor drone's chemical-accelerator upgrade for hunting Russia's jet-powered Geran-4 Shaheds, and that entered Phase I of the Pentagon's $1.1 billion Drone Dominance Program.
The sergeant's theft removed 16 FPV drones from frontline combat operations for nearly 5 months, from the January 2026 theft to the May 2026 sale.
Case mechanics
The stolen drones were on the military unit's balance sheet and had been issued specifically for combat operations. On 30 May 2026, the sergeant sold the stolen drones for $2,370, which is roughly 19% of their actual value, to an undisclosed buyer.
The officers arrested him immediately after the funds transfer under Article 208 of Ukraine's Criminal Procedure Code, recovering the cash, all 16 drones, and their components.
Charge and bail
The sergeant has been charged under Part 4, Article 410 of Ukraine's Criminal Code, for theft of military property during wartime, the most serious classification of the offense. A Ukrainian court ordered detention with the option of release on bail of $6,009.
General Cherry's response
General Cherry thanked Ukraine's Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko and the Specialized Defense Prosecutor's Office for "principled action against the theft of military property" in a statement on social media.
"FPV drones are a property of critical necessity, used daily along the entire line of combat contact. The availability of such weapons directly affects the ability to defend positions and preserve the lives of military personnel," the company said.
Earlier, General Cherry and Croatia's ORQA signed a memorandum of cooperation. They agreed to jointly develop and manufacture interceptor drones and counter-drone systems, including an underground factory under the Build in Ukraine localization program, the companies announced.
