Action in defense of Palestine Action -Oct. 31 in London outside the US Embassy

2 days ago by Peter Link to c/palestine

Following intensive lobbying by representatives of the Israeli government and the arms industry such as Lord Walney, dishonestly presented to the public as ‘independent advisers’, domestic direct action group Palestine Action have been branded as a ‘terrorist organisation’, for trying to stop crimes against humanity and for exposing the British government’s complicity in genocide.

Following mass arrests outside Labour’s Liverpool conference, we’re boosting our defiance against the ban on Palestine Action!

On Saturday October 31st, we are taking mass-action in London. 🪧 This will be a sign-holding action once again!

The new Prime Minister has chosen not to issue a statement about the 230 brave individuals who defied Labour’s unjust ban outside his first conference as PM, 161 of whom were arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding paper signs.

Meanwhile, Foreign Secretary 🍕 Ed Miliband stated that he “doesn’t think anyone’s intent was to have those people criminalised.” after being gently questioned in a Pizza Express just 100 yards away from where people were being arrested.
