And if so could you link the source? I have just been going through lists and I can't find them.

The Guardian keeps being quoted about this - it is worth looking at key funders of the Guardian.

Hopefully people have the ability to understand the facts irrespective of the Guardian

Anyway ...Britain formally designated Iran’s IRGC as a threat to national security last Friday, making public support for the organization or assistance to it punishable by up to 14 years in prison.

The designations took effect on July 17 after Parliament approved an order submitted by Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood four days earlier.

Yes, but knowing who funds the Guardian is also very relevant, and useful. Was the point.

Thanks Twigs for all your updating.

Does the legislation define what is meant by "support"? Would someone who argues that Iran should not be being attacked by any other country count as "support" and be punishable by a prison sentence? Is it now the case that anyone who tries to argue neutraility and peace will be seen as a "terrorist"? Thanks.
