The poor woman was on the floor facing away from him when he hit her in the back with a sledgehammer and broke her spine. They also brought whips and used them on the security guards.

I'm so appalled by these vile thugs and mortified for the elderly useful idiots who got themselves arrested for supporting them

Clearly supports the action of the 6 thugs.

He states: "My constituent is one of six political prisoners on hunger strike, demanding the right to a fair trial and the de-proscription of Palestine Action.

I have written to David Lammy to demand urgent action.

The government knows the truth: the weight of history is against them."

The 6 are having a fair trial in a British court, with their own legal representation and arguments for prosecution and defence (as happens here).

Is he thick, or just totally loved up with support for violence against others and criminal damage, in the name of Palestinian support?

What's wrong with him!. A policewoman had her spine broken by a thug with a sledgehammer who hit her when defenceless on the floor how is that ever ok?

Fortunately, there is CCTV and bodycam evidence being shown in.court.

He’s just an utter disgrace isn’t he.

One of the 6 political prisoners on hunger strike? Are these the same 6? How can he justify that having seen the evidence? It's he saying that a trial by jury in a British court is not a ' fair trial'? That's quite a claim, even from him. Even that idiot lawyer who ' defended' the Manchester thugs backed down Sharpish as soon as he saw the evidence of what they did.

No, he’s one of the ones charged with vandalising the RAF planes and costing us millions of pounds to fix them. No sympathy there either, particularly as they thought the planes were used to refuel Israeli bombers and they aren’t; they couldn’t be even if they wanted to because they use different refuelling systems.

It beggars belief doesn't it, if I broke into a miltary base and caused 1 million pounds worth of damage by spraying paint into the engine of a plane owned by the military I would expect to go to prison for a long time, who wouldn't?!
To then go on hunger strike and be acting like you are an innocent victim is ridiculous, and then for Magic Grandad to get involved is laughable.

Its a joke. Nonevof it actually helps Palestinian people whom they pretend they are taking action for, they are virtue signalling thugs.

Similar stories about the individuals are published in many newspapers and news sites.

I'll share some so you can see the story about their actions and subsequent charges and trial are not invented.

No, I know. My answer was in response to you asking why use the picture of children in Gaza. Its because that site is biased propaganda and they are trying to deflect or insinuate that the actions were justified. See how they dont mention specifics, just that they were "carrying sledgehammers" and charged with crimes. I know you didn't post it but just pointing out that it's not a reliable source and the person who did post it has their own agenda I'm sure

On 9 August 2025, a demonstration supporting Palestine Action was held in London. Lots of protestors were arrested including activist Moazzam Begg who had previously moved his family to Taliban controlled Afghanistan in 2001 since he considered it an "economical place to bring up his family and one where they wouldn't be harassed for their race" (one where women and girls are not treated terribly well though). He wrote that by 2001 the Taliban had made "some modest progress in social justice and upholding pure, old Islamic values forgotten in many Islamic countries" although he did finally criticise the Taliban for its human rights abuses.(eventually small mercies).

Not someone I'd follow personally. Thinking skills appear to be fuzzy when sitting in the road with others.

Thank you.

Footage of Samuel Corner swinging the sledgehammer and hitting the female police officer has been released.

https://www.channel4.com/news/police-release-footage-of-palestine-action-activists-in-alleged-attack-on-bristol-factory

He then accused the police officer of being complicit in genocide and then complained that his handcuffs were too tight,

And he's pleading not guilty.

What a fucking arsehole he is.

How on earth can they still be saying they didn't intend to hurt people when they swung a sledgehammer at someone and threatened them with whips and saws? If you really believe your actions were justified then go ahead and justify your actions. Don't pretend you didn't want to hurt people when it is obvious you did.

Scary footage. They could have killed someone just when they ram raided their way in. They had no idea what was the other side of the door.

I'd have expected to get myself shot for my trouble. Fucking around with military equipment? Sod that.

Utter scumbag. Attacks a policewoman with a sledgehammer twice, the second time when she's lying defenceless on the ground and he's complaining his handcuffs are too tight, and they hurt.

Where's the remorse for the policewoman and her dreadful injuries (still not fully recovered), it's all about him. Where do Palestinian Action get these scumbags!

I wouldn't want to align myself with these individuals.

It is possible to support Palestinians without aligning with violent thugs. Aligning with these types of thugs, does the cause no good at all.
