UK: Court says regime’s ban on Palestine Action under terror legislation was lawful

“The British government acted lawfully when it banned the protest group Palestine Action as a terrorist organization, the Court of Appeal in London ruled on Monday. Chief Justice Sue Carr said the group went far beyond staging non-violent demonstrations to launch destructive attacks on defense companies, banks, and a military base. ‘It is not, as claimed, a direct action civil disobedience protest group like the suffragettes, operating transparently in the open,’ Carr said. ‘It is a covert organization which operates with secret cells to avoid the detection and prosecution of those using violence to destroy property and cause injury.’ The ruling overturned a February decision by three senior High Court judges who found that, despite the group promoting its political cause through some crimes, the scale of its activities did not warrant a ban.” (06/15/26)
