I don't think Palestine Action are terrorists; and I *really* don't think those protesting the proscription of Palestine Action are terrorists!

People seem to not be able to tell the difference between Palestine as a state, the people of palestine (who have been there a long long time) and those who run palestine (HAMAS) who have been proscribed as a terrorist group.

If there are elments within Palestine Action who support HAMAS then the whole group gets a bad name, there has to be a consistent message and condemnation of Oct 7 but also the actions of the IDF.

The fact Benjamin Netanyahu has an arrest warrant against him for war crimes never seems to be taken in to account. So probably argue if the UK government can support a wanted war criminal, then people are free to support Terrorist groups such as Hamas.

I think Britain has stopped supplying arms, as has germany and other countries, things are changing thanks to coverage and the horrific images coming from Gaza.

Meanwhile the UK government are on Summer recess.

Hopefully it will be over turned, as while the police are busy arrestingj people like this, there seems to be a huge shoplifting epidemic, phone thefts (snatchig) and other crimes being undertaken with impunity,
