“UK seeks to jail Palestine Action for ‘terrorism’ amid UK media blackout’

via The Grayzone on YT

@palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml @iran

“A shockingly corrupted trial that exposes the British state’s #weaponization of #censorship and secrecy laws has just begun.

The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal details how six activists from the direct action protest group #PalestineAction face #terrorism charges [..] – but the jury in the case is forbidden from knowing this.

The UK media is similarly banned from reporting on these facts, while the defendants in the case are blocked by court order from explaining their motives for damaging and occupying Israeli weapons factories on British soil.

[..]

Now, he argues, the British state is [..] rigging the trial and perverting whatever’s left of democracy, all to preserve its special relationship with Israel.

A retrial of Palestine Action activists (acquitted of burglery charges in Feb) is on bogus "terrorism” charges. "This is what a stitch-up looks like," says UK MP Zarah Sultana. She "invoked parliamentary privilege to reveal [what] the British public was officially forbidden from knowing." The jury will not be told that "if convicted, they & 18 others will be sentenced as terrorists." See Hansard 14 Apr. Her info was from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkzxhQU6QIM #UKPol #USPol #EUPol #palestineAction #news .

Report: Palestine Action's retrial is rigged against them. 1st, the jury must not know the trial is for terrorism charges* & that long prison terms are possible. 2nd, UK media are banned from reporting the above. 3rd, the 6 must not explain their motives for damaging Israeli weapons factories. Arguably, Palestine Action is being targeted bcz of its effectiveness & in providing a model for activism. *cf criminal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkzxhQU6QIM #UKPol #EUPol #USPol #Israel #news #PalestineAction .

Did #Israel get #palestineAction banned? Is blowing up an effigy of Netanyahu "anti-semitic"? What next will be off limits? Will not joining in on the #colonialism be considered a problem as well? The world is not well. #israel #genocide #ethniccleansing #palestine #lebanon #palestine #apartheid #colonialism

It's already fucked up enough that people can get arrested for sitting quietly and holding a placard, but it's doubly fucked up that you can still be arrested for it even after a court ruled that the government acted unlawfully when they made it illegal to sit quietly and hold a placard. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp38z9lylddo #PalestineAction #UKPolitics

“Palestine Action hunger striker Amu Gib to stand in local elections while in prison” by Ricky And Council Estate Media on Substack @uk_politics “Amu Gib, a 30-year-old activist affiliated with Palestine Action, has been selected by Islington Community Independents to stand in the local elections. This news is particularly striking given that Gib is currently on remand, awaiting trial. A victory for Gib would be a significant rebuke to Keir Starmer, emphasising he is out of touch, especially regarding the proscription of Palestine Action” https://open.substack.com/pub/councilestatemedia/p/palestine-action-hunger-striker-amu #Press #SocialMedia #UK #Gib #PalestineAction #Remand #HungerStrike #Election #Islington #Starmer #Labour

“Breaking: fears of stitch-up as judges say [UK Home Secretary] Mahmood can appeal Palestine Action unbanning” by Skwawkbox with The Canary @uk_politics @thecanaryuk@independent-media.co.uk @UKLabour@mastodon.cloud “On 13 February, three High Court judges humiliated the Starmer government by declaring the regime’s terrorist ban on anti-genocide group Palestine Action unlawful. However, the judges allowed the Home Office time to prepare arguments for an appeal against the finding — and the very narrow grounds on which the judges declared the ban unlawful made legal experts fearful that the judgment was constructed to be overturned on appeal” https://www.thecanary.co/skwawkbox/2026/02/25/palestine-action-unbanning/ #Press #SocialMedia #UK #PalestineAction #Ban #Appeal #StitchUp #Labour #Starmer #Proscription #Israel #PalestinianGenocide

“Palestine Action Victory Vindicates Direct Action & Breaking Genocidal & Immoral Laws” by veteran UK socialist & anti-Zionist campaigner Tony Greenstein in his latest blogpost @uk_politics @palestine@fedibird.com @Palestine@masto.ai @palestine@lemmy.ml “However we should not be complacent. The decision is extremely problematic. The arguments that the three judges – Dames Victoria Sharp & Karen Steyn & Jonathan Swift - the most reactionary, pro-Zionist and security minded of the High Court, based their decision on, are extremely feeble and in places obscure and contradictory” https://azvsas.blogspot.com/2026/02/palestine-action-victory-vindicates.html #Press #SocialMedia #PalestineAction #Proscription #Unlawful #Victory #Vindication #Appeal #Judges #Reactionary #ProZionist #Labour #Starmer #Cooper #HomeOffice #Israel #Elbit

Resign Cooper. Your judgement is suspect. #PalestineAction's proscription has been ruled unlawful.

The UK is letting the Palestine Action prisoners, who are imprisoned for disrupting the arms industry that murders children, to die in their prison cells. Free the Palestine Action prisoners! PS. I grew up with Bobby Sands as one of my heroes, I placed a flower on his grave when I was living in Ireland. #PalestineAction #UKpol #HungerStrike #Israel sIreland #BobySands #History #Inhumanity #PoliticalPrisoner #HumanRights

This is also what Yvette Cooper, when she was UK Home Secretary, said about #PalestineAction. If you knew the secret stuff I know, you'd agree with me that they're terrorists. It's the cheapest and basest way for a politician to malign someone, and a clear sign of a flailing, undemocratic state.

So according to the UK government, Greta Thunberg is now a dangerous terrorist. I'm beginning to think the UK government may have lost its moral compass. https://news.sky.com/story/greta-thunberg-arrested-at-a-protest-supporting-palestine-action-hunger-strikers-13486842 #GretaThunberg #PalestineAction #UKPolitics

#GretaThunberg has been arrested at a #PalestineAction protest in central London after expressing support for the proscribed group. The Swedish climate activist, 22, held THAT sign reading I support Palestine Action, I oppose Genocide"

Their demands are reasonable, their treatment is disgraceful. The government's intransigence is killing the #PalestineAction hunger strikers. Just as its complicity has assisted the genocide in Gaza. It needs to wake up right now to the moral consequences. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... Two Palestine Action-linked hu...

Report: 'Death risk’ fear for Palestine Action hunger strikers: “This is a trajectory that ends with death.” 7 activists have been on hunger strike for more than 30 days after being denied bail. A three-day judicial review of the banning ended last week. Judgment is set for a later date. https://observer.co.uk/news/national/article/death-risk-fear-for-palestine-action-hunger-strike-activists https://imemc.org/article/seven-palestine-action-members-on-day-30-of-hunger-strike/ #PalestineAction #palestine #USPol #Europol #UKPol #press @palestine@fedibird.com .
