Everyone knows that one writes on Post-It! notes with crayons that extrude multicoloured Plasticine.

The Day a Man Was Arrested for a T-Shirt About Clay
While what's happening in Ga7a is no joke, sometimes the absurdity of how authorities respond to protest demands a little satire. Case in point: the arrest of Miles Pickering, an engineer from Brighton, who was hauled in by London police not for violence, not for vandalism, but for wearing a T-shirt that said “Plasticine Action.” I have to say the tears were rolling down my face laughing at this.
Yes, Plasticine. As in the modelling clay. As in Morph, the grinning, orange clay figure from British kids' TV. Pickering’s shirt featured Morph giving two thumbs up, alongside the tagline: “We oppose AI-generated animation.” It was a cheeky dig at soulless digital creativity, not a call to storm the gates of Parliament.
But alas, nuance died long ago.
Miles recounted: “He looked down and… said: ‘Right, you’re nicked.’ And I thought: ‘Oh, here we go.’” The officer apparently mistook “Plasticine Action” for “Pal3st1ne Action,” a banned protest group. In a modern-day comedy of errors, a pun about clay got interpreted as a national security threat.
Pickering was carted off to a pop-up police station, which, hilariously, was two gazebos outside Scotland Yard. Yes, a literal gazebo arrest. There, officers reviewed his shirt in forensic detail, like it was a suspicious package.
Eventually, a more senior officer admitted: “I can’t charge you under section 12… because that says ‘Palestine Action’. You’ve got ‘Plasticine Action.’”
Honestly, this is either Monty Python or Black Mirror, we haven’t decided.
Upon release, Miles walked out to cheers from fellow protesters. Pointing to his shirt, he proudly declared: “Plasticine Action!”, and the crowd roared with laughter.
But the story doesn’t end there. Miles decided to lean in. He started selling the shirts globally, with proceeds going to Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP). As of now, they’re selling in 28 countries. Morph has officially gone global, not as a cartoon, but as a symbol of protest, parody, and the power of a well-timed pun.
Miles is now urging others to join the next protest on 6 September wearing their Plasticine Action shirts. He asks, quite reasonably: “If 1,000 people wander around the Pal3st1n1an march wearing a T-shirt that says Plasticine Action with a picture of Morph, what are they going to do?”
Good question, Miles. Arrest the lot of them? Start interrogating Wallace and Gromit? Ban modelling clay?
In an age when satire can be mistaken for t3rrorism, this incident says more about the state of protest rights than any op-ed could. It’s ludicrous. It’s hilarious. And it’s deeply worrying.
But at least it gave us one perfect image: a man in a Morph T-shirt getting arrested under anti-terror laws, and turning it into an international fundraiser for humanitarian aid.
Truly, the revolution will be stop-motion.

I'm told someone has been detained in Glasgow for wearing a Plasticine Action tee shirt
If you were wondering how long it would take to descend to this level of Met stupidity, I have news for you.
