Human rights organisations, academics and writers have called on Ofcom to clarify what the high court ruling that the ban on Palestine Action was unlawful will mean for online platforms pending the home secretary’s appeal against the judgment.
The Metropolitan police have said that officers will no longer arrest people at protests who express support for the direct action group. But the signatories of a letter to Ofcom say it is unclear what it will mean for platforms which have duties to remove terrorist content under the Online Safety Act.
