“It’s a legal right in the UK to criticise the government’s decision to ban a group and to call for de-proscription.

The MPS [Metropolitan Police Service] acknowledged this in its internal guidance from last July, the same document which says that holding a sign calling for de-proscription alone does not suggest membership of a proscribed organisation and that individuals have to actively express support for a proscribed group for this to be an offence.

The force has nevertheless repeatedly prevented protesters from exercising these rights, although it’s unclear just how many have been arrested for this”

More #heroic protection of #publicSafety this week in #England.

In Dortmund Square, #Leeds, #WestYorkshirePolice arrested 21 dangerous #terrorists, who held cardboard signs opposing #genocide in #Gaza and supporting #PalestineAction.

This #terrorist was #singing like an angel, which is of course the most deadly form of terrorism ever invented. If police had not intervened forcefully, thousands of people could have been uninjured. Thank god for the #TerrorismAct2000!

“Starmer’s government is ripping up the rulebook on protest to protect Israel – from classing protests as 'terrorism' to banning repeat marches & fining universities that allow student to demonstrate”
