The organisation was banned last month after its members broke into an airbase and vandalised two military planes.
More than 70 people were arrested across the UK on Saturday on suspicion of supporting the activist group Palestine Action, which was recently designated a terrorist organization.
The Metropolitan Police said 41 people were arrested in London, where protesters gathered in Parliament Square to demonstrate against Israel’s war in Gaza. Some held signs reading “I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action.” Arrests were also made in Manchester, Cardiff, and Leeds.
It has been illegal to be a member of Palestine Action or to show support for the group since Saturday, when the new designation came into effect.

On Friday, the High Court rejected an attempt by the group’s co-founder, Huda Ammori, to suspend the ban. Ammori’s lawyer, Raza Husain, called the decision “an ill-considered, discriminatory and authoritarian abuse of statutory power.”

Parliament voted to crack down on the pro-Palestinian group after its activists broke into the Royal Air Force base at Brize Norton in central England in June and sprayed red paint on two military planes used for refueling and transport. The activists claimed at the time that the aircraft supported surveillance flights “in support of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.”
More than 57,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since Israel launched its military operation in response to the deadly Hamas attack on October 7, 2023.
12 July 2025- The REAL terrorist group just opened fire on Palestinians trying to get water…
And they call me anti-semitic for pointing out this horrendous criminal act by Israeli Forces..
F@#k Israel and those who ‘unwaveringly’ support such a criminal terrorist state that has enriched itself with money from the U.S. via bribery, blackmail, and coercion, to the tune of trillions of dollars stolen from American taxpayers!
No wonder the Epstein Tapes have disappeared …Donald…!
Well summed up 👏👏👏😡
Support Hamas and that’s what you get, a criminal record and never getting a visa to travel, bravo.
No oppose genocide against innocent people, mainly women and children, of whom 340,000 are missing and the UK state arrests you.Nauseating stuff.
Hamas is a POLITICAL PARTY….it is NOT a ‘terrorist’ group, and is standing-up against the land theft and killings by Israel!
If you support Labour and the Tories in the UK Parliament, isn’t that considered to be a terrorist act?
After all, they support an already condemned Israeli government that was found guilty in the ICC and ICJ.
But, then again…the illegal ‘J3wi$h State’ was unofficially declared in the UK Parliament in 1948, in order to appease the Rothschild Banksters who have control over the UK Reserve Bank and Treasury.
Mass demonstrations against the jew Starmer’s Bolshevik regime in 3-2-1
The misuse of language via labelling some red spray paint ‘sabotage’ indicates unbritish and uncivilised nepotism.
So the UK so called government supports the terrorist acts by the Israeli government whose PM and others, are wanted by the ICC?
Suffice to say, it took a few decades longer than expected but Orwell was right in the end. “War is peace, Freedom is slavery and Ignorance is strength.”
And then, they feed us bullshit and Soylent Green mRNA Biscuits…!
