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]
I am so SCARED. I mean just LOOK at this guy. Look at his socks! He’s clearly out to menace society. Phew. So glad those officers were there to set him straight and give him a good scolding. What would we do without these sorts of laws?! Society would just collapse. I’m sure of it.
Fascists don’t think, they do! The fact they’re doing the wrong things don’t matter to them just so long as they can tell themselves they’re “doing something about ‘the problem’ (that they made up in their heads).”
