UK arrests 83-year-old priest for backing Palestine Action and opposing Gaza genocide
-
The Reverend Sue Parfitt, from Bristol, was detained for holding a placard that read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” She was among more than 27 people arrested on Saturday for acts of defiance against the proscription.
Fuck the brits'

Technically it's because some members of the group trespassed in a military base and vandalised an airplane. Which is trespassing and vandalism. Not terrorism. Unless Starmer has been watching too much Thomas & the Friends and Pixar's Cars and believes that the poor planes can't sleep at night anymore, because they are terrified.
Also, even if a few members organize themselves to do that, that doesn't mean the entire organization supports it or is behind it.

Or you you could just, you know.. protest against Israel and pro Palestinians without explicitly showing your allegiance to terrorist organizations such as Hamas.
Yeah why on earth would one support the only armed force defending genocidees?

What really happened here: Members of this Palestine Action group sneaked onto a military base and attacked the aircrafts there. This act of politically motivated vandalism resulted in this group being officially banned by the government. Which is totally ok, no state in the world will and can tolerate some group doing acts of terrorism and/or doing sabotage.
Supporting banned terrorist organizations is of course also not allowed (which really makes sense) and yeah, this priest totally did that on purpose. You are therefore totally fine holding up a sign supporting Israel and you are also totally fine holding up a sign supporting Palestine, but you are not fine holding up signs supporting banned organizations.
They threw red paint at fighter jets you dishonest cunt

The British House of Commons voted by 385 votes to 26 to add Palestine Action to the list of terrorist groups proscribed under the Terrorism Act. Maybe you want to tell us why your definition of terrorism is different from the one in the British parliament?
The british parliement is guilty of supporting genocide, who TF cares about their opinions on things.
Fuck britain

Please inform yourself: People of the Palestine Action group have sneaked upon a british military airfield and sprayed paint into the jet engines of several RAF planes.
Oh noooo the genocidal army had their plane painted? Soooo sad
-
Thanks for providing proper context.
Before they decided to break into a British military base and sabotage planes their status might have been debatable.
People from genocidal countries (US, Germany, UK) should really shut the fuck up
-
Some definitions of Terrorism also include property damage
Some definition of genociders also include "brits"

You might want to re-read that article. It doesn't mention Gaza once. Here are some quotes:
"fighting between Israel and Iran"
"protect UK personnel and bases in the Middle East"
"we've never been involved in attacking with Israel"
"we've got assets out there they need to be protected given Iran has suggested they might be under threat" -
That's the definition of vandalism. Feel free to open a dictionary and educate yourself.
Genocide pos
-
Yes, that is vandalism by definition.
"Vandalism is the action involving deliberate destruction of or damage to public or private property.[1]
The term includes property damage, such as graffiti and defacement directed towards any property without permission of the owner."Shut the fuck up you genocidal piece of shit. Throwing red paint at a fighter jet isn't "vandalism". Fuck you. I hope you once see your loved one firebombed. Scumbag
-
Apparently they sabotaged the engines:
In June 2025, the Home Office announced that it intended to designate the group as a proscribed terrorist organisation after the group broke into RAF Brize Norton, vandalising and damaging two Royal Air Force Airbus A330 MRTT refuelling planes by spraying paint into their engines.
By committing that act they’ve successfully played themselves.
Shut the fuck up germgerm your country is arming a genocide too. Death to germany

Whining about china

"We're civilised people, we can excuse genocide, but throwing paint and saying mean words is a step too far."

Why is the UK against people backing Mandatory Palestine?
Mandatory Palestine
the UK is against backing "Palestine Action" which is a group that has sabotaged British military equipment. Surprisingly, the British government doesn't take kindly to that sort of thing.

No, not that pos
I know, points of sale are usually in retail, nothing to do with genocide.

That's very funny. You should do stand up

without explicitly showing your allegiance
So you assume that there's either an explicit or implicit support for Hamas by protesting against Israel?
Sorry for using difficult words. Make simple for you now:
- protest against Israel: Ok
- protest for Palestinians: Good
- support Hamas: very bad
Understood or brain still hurt?
So support for Palestinians is only ok if you don't support the one thing Palestinians could actually do to stop the senseless slaughter of more Palestinians- armed revolutionary action?
So basically one can only wave a flag and cheer against the slaughter of Palestinians by Israel while vilifying the group that Israel deems it’s enemy for checks notes dealing back the same damage dealt to Palestinians for over a century now since Zionist terrorist cells who would become the Israeli military intelligence apparatus and political elite, waged campaigns of massacres, bombings and assassinations all across British mandatory Palestine forcing the British to leave their occupation and the un to split the territory 55/45 in zionists favor. So essentially we are denied to cheer on reciprocal retribution by a population clearly wronged through decades of subjugation, brutal
Oppression and genocide because of the sensibilities of colonial capitalist imperialism?Got it
