A non-violent, direct-action group campaigning for solidarity with Palestinians has been threatened by Metropolitan police officers with prosecution under terrorism laws, openDemocracy can reveal.
Members of Palestine Action have also been arrested under counter-terror legislation, and charged with blackmail for threatening to protest against a company.
The group, which was established last July, has been inspired by the environmental group Extinction Rebellion’s use of civil disobedience to campaign for justice for Palestinians.
