Does this mean people will no longer be arrested for holding up a sign saying “I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action”?

Great news! It was shocking that freedom of speech was curtailed in this way.

An absolute shocking violation of freedom of speech. And why? To keep the Zionist lobby happy? The government should be hanging its head in shame.

Govt. Is appealing. My very pro Pal MP surprised me by voting for PA proscription when I wrote to her. I suspect there is a lot not bring publicised about them.

Mine too, but he is a Labour MP so I assume he was just toeing the party line. I wrote him a very angry email about it. I didn’t vote for him anyway but I assured him I never would in the future.
