@simon_brooke@mastodon.scotEveryone in the UK, there's an official petition to parliament to 'Call a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on politics & democracy'.
Please could I strongly urge everyone to sign it?

"UK ban on Palestine Action unlawful, high court judges rule"

@simon_brooke@mastodon.scotThis is genuinely important and good news: as I expected, no British jury is going to convict #PalestineAction activists of non-violent protest.
Of course, this is why the UK government is trying to get rid of jury trials, but ...
Will the proscription of Palestine Action as a 'terrorist organisation'(!) also fall?
@pre@boing.worldPalestine Action have never been a terrorist group, have never tried to terrorize the British public. The attempt to classify them as one was unjust, authoritarian, and motivated by support for a foreign state committing war crimes.
I'm mostly just surprised that judges appointed by the British state operating in secret agree. Usually they back the corrupt British state entirely.
Yvette Cooper should be resigning in disgrace, suspected of treachery. Every MP and Lord that waved the proscription through through should be ashamed and probably also fired.
