    MPs had voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to proscribe the direct action group, alongside the neo-Nazi Maniacs Murder Cult and the Russian Imperial Movement.

    Has anyone affiliated with the other two groups been arrested since this went into effect?

      This is a good question, apparently they’d rather lock up 83 year old women than violent facists and warmongers

            oh no, not -gasp- property damage!

            sending military equipment to explode brown children: 😊

            vandalizing military equipment so that you can’t send them to aid the genocide: 😨😠

            vandalising and damaging two Royal Air Force Airbus A330 MRTT refuelling planes by spraying paint into their engines.

            Funny, I wasn’t aware vandalism is a synonym to terrorism.
