To think Palestine Action isn't a terrorist group?

FFS it’s KEIR! KEIR!

Thank you, @VerityUnreasonble and @Hoardasurass - good points 👍

YABVU. They absolutely are!

The sprayed paint into the engines, 1 of which may need to be replaced at cost of £25 million.
I really don't think that you understand both the pression engineering that goes into a jet engine or quite how much damage can be done to them by using a high pressure jet of paint from a modified fire extinguisher.
This group of terrorists are escalating their behaviour and tactics. They started vandalising the buildings of companies that work with Israel, then they started "protesting " in mobs on MPs doorsteps, then mobbing and trying to stop them entering parliament and again on the way out. When that didn't get what they wanted a group of them ram raided a defence company in Bristol (members of PA awaiting trial) and now they've damaged vital military equipment to a value of over £25 million in 1 act of terrorism because our government won't accede to their demands.
These are just some of the acts of terrorism this group are responsible for, how much further do they need to go before you recognise that they are a terrorist group?

It's worth reading the statement as to why it's suggested they be proscribed. It's not just because they "threw some paint on a plane"

Also from your link;

again shouted: "Britain first."

He shouted Britain First twice during his attack. Whether he was a card carrying member of the group or not, the fact he chose that statement to say out loud twice whilst murdering an MP surely shows his support of the group.

Proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation means that being a member or supporting their views is a crime.

Yet being a member of Britain First or supporting their views is grand?

They have openly support Hamas on several occasions by using Hamas bandanas and symbols , they damage military stuff . What did you expect ? I say it’s about time .
Lets hope the Muslim brotherhood is next as they have also been banned most countries

This 100 percent 👆

It's literally the definition of terrorism under UK law (as brought in by the previous Labour government) see screenshot below

I have to say I'm Jewish and I don't see them as doing that at all. They are very much targeting the infrastructure that facilitates genocide, not individuals and not Jews.

Israel is entitled to defend itself, but defence is not nearly two years of relentlessly attacking a largely innocent population and taking a wrecking ball to their cultural institutions and infrastructure in an attempt to bury their cultural as well as actual existence.

Our government needs to stop being apologetic and use their influence as a supposed ally of Israel to help put an end to this.

But they a) didn't embarrass the establishment. B) show real terrorist who do want to.kill people how easy it is and c) commit treason.. Sorry but fucking with UK military equipment is treason.

plus there have been a number of attacks on Jewish people some have been reported in here. That is not acceptable. Jewish people in the uk are not the government of Israel.

What a lot of people seem to have forgotten is that two things can be true at once. Too many are divided into 'teams' and see every issue through this lens.

I am totally against what Israel has done in Gaza. However, I also believe that Hamas is an evil group and that vandalising military infrastructure is not legitimate protest.

We have a serious issue seem to think they have to support every single action carried out by their 'team'.

I highly doubt those who think it is fine to damage military jets would feel the same about Reform doing it to 'protest' against immigration.

He wasn't shouting a slogan - from my BBC link;

He shouted: "Britain first, this is for Britain.
"Britain will always come first...

the mystery of Mair is he appears to have simply got on with forming and reinforcing his views with no contact to any of the known extremist organisations in the UK.
There is no evidence of him having been identified at rallies or marches down the years...

Yes, that's my concern as well

👏 👏

They are terrorists according to the governments definition of terrorists. They're lucky they weren't shot!

Edited as quoted wrong post but won't let me fix it

It’s part of a broader picture though to undermine and destabilise our country and our ability to defend ourselves. The aspect particularly concerning to me is the division they are sowing. We are a tolerant nation of all religions, we will not accept fanatics or anyone sabotaging our peaceful society.

He shouted 'Britain First' twice during his attack.

OK, so arrest the people on charges relating to damage to army property, which I'm sure is very serious under the law, but it hardly merits them being labelled terrorists.

Who have they 'terrorised', who have they threatened by causing military aircraft to require an (I am sure) expensive repaint?

I wonder how many of you bleating about how they’re just harmless protestors who didn’t do nuffink wrong were celebrating when the people on the other side got prison sentences for making offensive Facebook posts?

It’s an act of treason at the very least.
Lucky the morons weren’t shot.

It really is. But also concerning.

Breaking into a base and causing millions of pounds worth of damage to military equipment is terrorism. They’re being called what they are.

It’s magnitudes more serious than the actions of Just Stop Oil.

I know. Some of them supporting fascist, nihilistic, antisemitic, misogynist regimes over liberal democracies. Bizarre.

Thomas Mair (Jo Cox's killer) doesn't appear to have been a member of any group;
