The British government's ban on pro-Palestinian campaign group Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation amounted to an authoritarian restriction on protest, lawyers representing a co-founder seeking to overturn the ban argued on Wednesday. www.reuters.com/business/aer...

The Suffragettes could have faced a ban as a terror group if current laws were in place at the start of the 20th century, the High Court has heard in a challenge against the ban on Palestine Action. www.thenational.scot/news/2565322... Lift The Ban: wedonotcomply.org

47 arrested outside the Ministry of Justice. 90 arrested in Tavistock Gardens Peace Garden. 60 outside the Home Office. 140 outside the Royal Courts of Justice. These are just from the last week. Over 2,500 arrested in total. This is what Starmer, Cooper and Mahmood have done. Do you feel safer?

Opposing genocide is not terrorism. Make your choice. www.wedonotcomply.org

This short film perfectly sums up why I support the Lift the Ban campaign having been arrested 3 times.

Please support the amazing work of Defend our Juries and the Lift the Ban campaign supporting the right to protest and opposing the genocide in Gaza and the UK government’s complicity. chuffed.org/project/1430...

Amen, @zoegrunewald.bsky.social! Just like with planning law, which we have discussed before, the rights of those who do not *already own property* never, ever feature.

Around 140 arrests Outside the Royal Courts of Justice today, as the judicial review over the ban on Palestine Action began, approximately 150 people defied the ban. Arrests took around 6hours to complete, with an estimated 140 arrests made.

Arrests continuing outside London’s Royal Courts. “Since the ceasefire was announced, there has only been 8 days where Israel has not dropped bombs on Gaza. This is not a ceasefire… and our government is complicit. I will not be complicit.” Join us: wedonotcomply.org

ARRESTS ONGOING This woman explains her justification for taking action: “Evil triumphs when good people do nothing.” At least one hundred people have already been arrested, with many more to come. Join us in a town or city near you this Saturday: wedonotcomply.org

UPDATE - ARRESTS Arrests are so slow so far that after two hours only a handful of around 150 peaceful sign-holders have been removed from the pavement. Prepared for the long-haul, the foil blankets and chocolate biscuits have come out. #Terrorism

HANDCUFFED PENSIONERS Arrests ongoing outside the Royal Courts of Justice as they protests peacefully against the proscribing of direct action group Palestine Action. This pensioner had his walking sticks removed and was handcuffed. Arrested under the Terrorism Act.

Just heard Rachel Reeves have a pop at @zackpolanski.bsky.social thereby signifying that she is really quite alarmed by the rise in @greenparty.org.uk And do she should be!

Lib Dem leader Edward Davey calls for a national investigation into Russian political interference in British politics: "Given Reform won't, he must. So will he know launch a national investigation into Russian infiltration into our politics?" Starmer: "Reform is riddled with pro-Putin propaganda"

BREAKING: ARRESTS underway outside the Royal Courts of Justice as dozens of people write signs with the words “I oppose genocide - I support Palestine Action”. Inside the Royal Courts, the judicial review over the ban on Palestine Action has begun. wedonotcomply.org

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap. Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long. This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The very first thing the Prime Minister does is use the household budget metaphor. A metaphor - this report into BBC coverage - said could be "easily misleading." Why is the government trying to mislead the country?

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population. How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich? They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

Are the Labour Government finally going to bring in rent controls? I seem to be living rent free in their heads! (Thanks for the shout out!) Join.greenparty.org.uk

Today, November 26th, at 1pm, outside the Royal Courts of Justice, we go again. The manipulating of the judicial review over the unlawful ban on direct action group Palestine Action will not go unopposed. Lift The Ban on Palestine Action www.wedonotcomply.org

Imagine TV News covering this farmer protest - banned, but turned up anyway, grinding capital to a halt - if it were about Palestine or climate change, not inheritance tax. Would they present protesters as heroes? Or showing "I need to get to work" and "me auld mam missed her hip operation" voxpops?

Given that the BBC endlessly gives platforms to lobbyists from the dark money junktanks without revealing their interests, shouldn't we be seeing such apologies every day? Better still, how about not doing it? If they want to appear, we should know on whose behalf they are speaking.

The judge due to rule on the proscription of Palestine Action is swapped last minute for a panel that includes a judge with a history of working for the government and another who ruled in favour UK selling jets to Israel. Accusations of a “stitch-up”. novaramedia.com/2025/11/25/a...

Nice to see Betty a bit Sweaty.

The 68yr old said: “People are now increasingly in politics calling other people traitors or terrorists, but for the government to call people terrorists when they’re not, and we all know that holding a placard is not terrorism, is quite another matter” www.edp24.co.uk/news/2564454...

"We need to free the political prisoners" A protestor gets emotional as she's arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign and talks about the six prisoners on the fourth week of their hunger strike. We are left with no other option but to resist.

House insurance in the US is increasing sharply due to climate change. Especially in Republican states. As we have been saying for decades. You cannot negotiate with physics. Insurance companies make the calculations and charge the policy... www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

BREAKING: Mass 'terror' arrests outside the Home Office of protestors holding signs which say "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action". The government is guilty of protecting a foreign genocidal regime, over the lives of Palestinians and our rights. Lift the ban.

Today, 1pm at the UK Home Office, we go again. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood had the opportunity to reverse her predecessor’s ridiculous ban on Palestine Action. She chose to double-down and further authoritarianism. We do not comply. History will remember your complicity.

Really excited for the double bill this week! 👇🏼

BREAKING: Police instantly start arresting protestors for silently holding signs which say they oppose genocide and the Palestine Action ban. Today's protest is happening in Tavistock Square, London — known as the peace gardens with anti-war memorials. Lift the ban.

"The slaughter. The massacre. The genocide. When will it stop?" As a woman is arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign, she asks when will it end? It's on all of us to take action to stop the genocide and resist attempts to label those who do as 'terrorists'.

BREAKING - @metpoliceuk today declare that London is a totally crime-free zone EXCEPT in the cases of pensioners and other good people holding terrorist cardboard signs. /s (This is a genuine photo showing only the police waiting to make arrests, not the ones actually doing it)

Reform's former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, a 10.5 year jail term for taking bribes from the Kremlin. Cosied up to authoritarian powers & traded principles for payoffs. Reform's leadership laughably claimed they barely knew Gill. Will all this be on tomorrow's front pages?
