“The Catholic Church's collusion with the Nazi genocide is rightly seen as an enduring moral stain. The Church of England's collusion with Israel's genocide in Gaza will be remembered in exactly the same way.”

This is legal in Britain. Published in one of the UK’s most widely read magazines no less But saying you support non-violent activists trying to stop a genocide is punishable by up to 14 years in prison

I join UN experts in urging the UK not to misuse counter-terrorism law to ban Palestine Action, which would criminalise legitimate protest by its members and chill free expression, assembly and association
Independent experts today urged the UK 🇬🇧 not to ban the “direct action” group @Pal_action as a terrorist organisation under the Terrorism Act 2000. “Acts of protest that damage property, but are not intended to kill or injure people, should not be treated as #terrorism.”

🚨The British media claimed that Palestine Action may have damaged the planes at RAF Brize Norton "beyond repair", potentially costing the UK over £30mn. Flight tracking data now shows the ZZ338 aircraft, one of the two targeted by Palestine Action, is already back in the air.

no one in involved in this in any capacity thinks palestine action are terrorists - the actual question is whether you think destroying civil liberties and democracy is a price worth paying to protect israel's right to murder children, and the entire labour party thinks it is

Israel killed Suwar in Gaza today, and wiped out 16 members of her family. She was only 4 years old.

Instead of taking draconian measures to shut down direct action protesters and criminalise anyone who expresses support for their actions, the Government should be taking immediate and unequivocal action to put a stop to Israel’s genocide and end any risk of UK complicity in it.

Palestine Action has failed in a bid to stop its proscription from taking effect, meaning that being a member of or expressing support for the group will become a terror offence at midnight tonight. At a hearing on Friday 4 July, Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori asked the

A protester shouted “What about the children of Gaza” during Keir Starmer's Labour party conference speech. He responded: “This guy obviously has a pass from the 2019 conference.” The subtext for those against genocide? “We don’t care about children being bombed like we used to.”

What we are witnessing in England is a mixture of a far-right racist riot, pogrom and terrorist insurgency. It has been whipped up by our media and political elites for decades. Some of those decrying this horror played their part in making it happen.

Those believing far right extremism can be defeated by the justice system are, at best, delusional. This is a political problem. A racist British Establishment which delights in finding scapegoats for problems it causes is to blame. They did this. This is on them.
