#PalestineAction

Professor Ben Saul, A human rights expert has written to the government expressing concern says 11 members of #PalestineAction have been classified as high-security prisoners, with "restricted status", and have been denied access to legal support, family visits and healthcare.

The activists were initially detained at police stations in Bristol for 36 hours, during which time they were denied access to legal representation, and were not permitted to contact their families or the outside world.

I need to say this as clearly as possible. I absolutely do not support #PalestineAction whatsoever. Of course if we're to say that I do support them I would risk a 14 year jail term. So let me day one last time that I do not support Palestine Action in their attempts to sabotage the infrastructure of #genocide here in the UK.

Got that? Good

Now in 2025, we are painfully reminded that the British Empire created this monster known as Israel to begin with.

“We are confident that this unlawful order will be overturned. As United Nations experts have made clear, spraying red paint and disrupting the British-based operations of Israel’s largest weapons firm, Elbit Systems, is not terrorism.

The terrorism and war crimes are being committed by Israel against the Palestinian people – armed and enabled by this government.”

“We commend the Counter Terrorism police for their decisive action in protecting the people of London from some cardboard signs opposing the genocide in Gaza and expressing support for those taking action to prevent it.”

“This is worse than Putin’s Russia. I don’t say that lightly. It’s 10 years for doing what we’re doing today in Russia; it’s 14 years in the UK.”

Κατά την διάρκεια των διαδηλώσεων υπέρ της οργάνωσης #PalestineAction

"Η αστυνομία πραγματοποίησε επίσης έφοδο στα σπίτια των συλληφθέντων, σπάζοντας τις εξώπορτες και κατάσχοντας αφίσες, βιβλία και τεχνολογία. Σύμφωνα με το Υπουργείο Δικαιοσύνης, δύο από τους 13 συλληφθέντες ήταν Κουάκεροι, ηλικίας 78 και 80 ετών. Ανέφεραν ότι τα ντουλάπια των τροφίμων τους ελέγχθηκαν για ραδιενεργά υλικά."

Between this shitshow and the ruling on Trans People lives this government is really taking a sledgehammer to the respect for the Rule of Law with their hasty and ill thought out plans.
If your laws don't have the consent of the People, then the Rule Of Law suffers, the covenant between the People and those that make the Laws is gone.

My ongoing campaign with MPs #PalestineAction

Dear *****,

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my message.

As I understand, on the morning of July 2nd, our lady MPs stood around in Suffragette sashes – an organisation at that time who, in their campaign, killed four people and injured 24. Later on that day, you voted to proscribe Palestine Action

Here is a photo of that event. I believe you are in the third row; you and the others look rather splendid.

However ...

My on-going emails with the MPs #PalestineAction

"This has included significant damage caused across the UK, encouragement to form covert “cells,” and the publication of detailed guides on how to carry out attacks on private companies and government buildings, with a clear pledge to escalate activities. Recent incidents have included serious damage at sites linked to the UK’s defence infrastructure and an attack on a Jewish-owned business in North London."

"I sign this letter because history shows us that when people stand up to injustice, those in power often reach for the same old playbook: label dissent as dangerous, criminalise protest, & try to silence movements for change by branding them as extremists or terrorists.

“From the suffragettes to the civil rights movement, what was once condemned as radical disruption is now celebrated as moral courage"
