The British government proscribed Palestine Action as a terrorist group on 5 July 2025 under the UK’s Terrorism Act 2000 after members of the network vandalised RAF aircraft at Brize Norton.[12] Since then, British police have arrested 744 individuals for showing support to Palestine Action, many of these resulting from a sit-in on Parliament Square on 9 August 2025.[13][14] Civil liberties groups have criticised the ban as “conflating protest with terrorism.”[15]
It’s very cute that the cop on left is so unsure he needed to hold hands while they waited, it’s the personal touches really!
