Good morning. At least 1,500 people across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are preparing to break terror law tomorrow.
Their planned action? Sitting on the floor holding signs that read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” The group was proscribed as a terrorist organisation in July. The campaign Defend Our Juries is planning a major escalation from its last major protest in August, when more than 500 people were arrested – beating the record from the poll tax riots. Half of those arrested supporting Palestine Action were over the age 60.
