Jurors have a right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience, irrespective of a Judge’s directions. Every defendant deserves access to fair justice. We are a UK-based campaign to ensure fair justice in UK courtrooms. www.defendourjuries.net
The UK government must immediately end its complicity in Israel’s crimes against humanity, and stop using counter-terror law to imprison those who take action to oppose deadly corporate crimes. wedonotcomply.org Here’s Gabriel (apologies for tramline background audio):
Hundreds are signing up to escalate. Why? Because Palestine Action is not a terrorist organisation. Saving lives is not terrorism. If you’re inspired to replicate this action, before doing so; go to wedonotcomply.org and read our Action Briefing Document. Here’s Mike:
MORE DEFIANT VIDEOS Following 5 raids from 72 videos so far, the videos are coming in quicker than ever. WARNING - Expressing support for Palestine Action is a breach of the UK Terrorism Act. This comes with significant risk of arrest and prosecution. ANOTHER🧵 Here’s Nina:
A retrial has been issued against a student who had been tried under Section 12 of the UK Terrorism Act for a speech made in 2023. The previous trial led to no conviction. Why is taxpayer money being wasted on this? Sarah is not a terrorist. substack.com/@andyworthin...
RELEASED! Those arrested in raids this morning have now being released with only one bail condition: not to upload any more videos in support of Palestine Action Isn’t that already illegal? Everyone in the UK has that condition! They have not been charged. We love you all! Here’s Rajan:
Rajan’s house was raided today under Section 12 of the UK Terrorism Act. Here’s Rajan speaking outside New Scotland Yard on July 5th, the anniversary of the unjust proscription of direct action group Palestine Action. Unequivocally opposing terrorism is not terrorism.
Richard’s house was also raided this morning by counter-terror police in relation to him making this statement. Richard declares himself a “member of Palestine Action”, despite the group disbanding over a year ago, and never having a ‘membership’ process anyway. Free Richard.
Here’s what Jon said that caused counter-terror police to raid his home this morning. We can all agree that this response is totally absurd and unnecessary. Saving lives is not terrorism. Palestine Action is not a terrorist group, regardless of the unjust ban. Lift the ban.
person who went viral in a video last September after police attempted to remove him from his wheelchair for holding a paper sign outside the Labour conference in Liverpool. Free Jon. Saving lives is not terrorism.
HOME RAIDS Defend Our Juries can confirm that at least three home raids have taken place this morning. Individuals who have shared videos online declaring support for the unjustly proscribed direct action group Palestine Action were arrested. Saving lives is not terrorism.
