They should make another group though with a similar ideology and plan of action.

Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

They already have and they've named it after some zionist politician lol
Beautiful lol
Literally hours after the ban, actionists smashed up a supplier of Elbit systemsin Scotland and simply claimed they were autonomous. The only real difference is they've stopped wearing red overalls that were Palestine Action's calling card, and used hivis jackets instead.
IMO these actionists are PA in all but name. Note the "drop Elbit" on the wall, which is the core campaign demand of PA. As long as that goal carries forward and actionists continue, the government has failed.

There's video of the action but it seemed to have been wiped from instagram since it was under a Pro-PA account.
Here's news on the org naming itself after Yvette Cooper (zionist home secretary) https://www.thenational.scot/news/25291394.new-direct-action-group-yvette-cooper-emerges/

Saw some reports the cops are telling people they can't even display things like "Free Palestine", shit is going downhill fast
The UK is completely off the rails right now.
agreed. Isreal, the tiny nation that could never have existed without the backing if the West, is not, and never has been in charge. Even the people actually paying for the propganda are based in the US (Adelson being the biggest example)
are US allies and thus don't need one either
Okay do the american flag next and the nazi flag then, you won't.
Trying to limit our – I mean, their freeze peach? What are you, a bigot?
Wow this is just like North Korea and China
What are we a bunch of Asians?
Let me get my calipers and I can check, one sec
Thinking of putting up Palestine stuff in my windows just to dare them to come get me.
as long as it isnt support for PA or displays its logo, you have every legal right to do so.
Of course anything construed as support for PA post-ban online could be used if your devices were seized, but that's a lot of resources the cops are only willing to use if they think you're an organiser or actionist. Stay safe!
In bad country
Proscribe these nuts
So like, that means a UK person can't retweet something that praises them or something like that or they'll have to pay a fine or something?
But in the anglo world they'll still be getting shared around, so a lot of UK people might do that by accident thinking it's fine, can that happen?
Up to fourteen years in prison if they want to make an example of you.
Yup. Of course these laws are arbitrarily enforced because that would involve rounding up thousands of people with more bark than bite.
They don't care for the lone poster on twitter, but they DO care about organisers and people putting out feelers to become actionists. The rest are selectively harassed or made examples of every now and then to make examples of people.
Courts are backed up as it is, and prison spaces are low, so they're being strategic right now.

Coming Soon: Getting UK streamers arrested by making them read out Pro Palestine Action donations.
Courageous move by Keir Starmer, in the Yes Minister sense.
Seriously though it's just such an absurd overreaction. They hemorrhaging off their own politicians! They're arresting 84 year old upper class priests!
I think it's a massive misstep by the govt. They are pushing PA organising underground for the moment, but dont seem to acknowledge how it will just re-emerge with a new name and new spokespersons just like National Front did.
All the while they've publicly and openly shit the bed trying to look tough like a school prefect who got picked on a few too many times. It doesn't make them look good to the fascists, their own base, or anyone really.
Courageous move by Keir Starmer, in the Yes Minister sense.
I don't think he expects to get re-elected anyway.
oh he will get re-elected, no different to how the neoliberal and fascist caucus won reelection in the US for over a generation.
Who'd vote for Reform-lite when they can vote for Reform?
most polling orgs are predicting a reform win
they are the overt fascists
How long before someone puts on a Guy Fawkes mask and starts throwing knives at cops?
In gommulist nourf korria,,,
The left has lacked a singular, uniting point of focus for the last few decades, a rallying cry. We may need to thank politicians for creating one.
When everyone is a terrorist, no one is...
Direct actionists have just started calling themselves "unaffiliated" or "yvette cooper". the org also seems to have decent opsec and never had any members beyond its founders and loosely-organised cadres that did workshops in a few cities.
I imagine a few actionists will get charged if they have email or phone comms that link them to PA before the ban, but the UK courts are nothing if a bunch of sticklers for rules and will probably be lenient (as with PA pre-ban) if cases come through the system. Proscription orders cannot apply retroactively.
the risk will be to regular folk who will be harassed and arrested to break up Palestine marches, other solidarity events like fundraisers, and organisers of direct action training/workshops.
Considering the Filton 18 is already being held without trial under terrorism charges, I wonder how much difference it will make to deter or punish actionists. Because if the UK govt never needed proscription to indefinitely hold these people, what is their real goal?
"such as flags"
So wait, is there a Palestine action flag, or are they saying it's illegal to have a Palestine flag?
I can't believe the guy who sent someone to prison for a tweet would do this smdh
