On 23 Dec 2025, #UKgovt lost a huge #Judo contest. #GretaThunberg used the #UKgovt's own power against it.
In July, the UK banned #PalestineAction as "#terrorist". Arrests for supporting PA total ~2,500, mostly older people. #Greta is the latest.
UK public opinion opposes the arrests. But Greta's fame takes the disdain global.
If Greta is convicted, the UK globally looks cruel. If she is acquitted or uncharged, it globally looks weak.
The UK govt has trapped itself, with no way out. #ukpol
Analysis: "Palestine Action: Prison hunger strikes that shaped history"
"Four Palestine Action members are continuing hunger strikes in the UK."
"They are protesting for better conditions in prison, rights to a fair trial, & for the UK to change a July policy listing the movement as a 'terror' group."

I'm trying to find the study that showed that austerity was based upon a misentered decimal point and a huge outlier.
Anyone else remember that article?
2. Most recently:
Report: "Palestine Action hunger strikers launch legal action against UK government"
"Lawyers of the group threaten court proceedings as top ministers refuse to meet them to discuss the protesters’ welfare."
All eight prisoners "will have spent more than a year in prison before their trials take place, well beyond the UK’s usual six-month pre-trial detention limit."

Legal petition to "Fight the Proscription of Palestine Action"
"The petition compares the direct-action tactics of the group to those of Greenpeace & Just Stop Oil, namely that it is not an organisation engaged in acts of violence to the person”...
"& therefore proscription is disproportionate & a violation of the right to freedom of expression."
~Fmr UK diplomat Craig Murray w/ Huda Ammori

Report: Anti-genocide protests see insurance companies dropping contracts with Elbit Systems
The move demonstrates that “direct action gets results”, said Defend Our Juries & Prisoners for Palestine.
It also shows "why Palestine Action was proscribed... because it was effective at disrupting the Israeli weapons industry", said Huda Ammori of Palestine Action.

Report: How reporting facts in the UK "can now land you in jail for 14 years as a terrorist":
The UK can now "outlaw any political group it chooses as a terrorist organisation – & thereby make it impossible to defend it."
It is a terrorism offence to express an opinion supportive of a proscribed organisation, which might encourage others to support the organisation.

Report: NHS doctor says she was 'strangled' by police at a protest to demand an ambulance for a critically ill hunger striker in a UK prison.
Footage shows police dragging the doctor on her back along the road by the hood of her coat, choking her:
"I was gagging & then I lost consciousness,” Olivia Brandon said.

Re "'Property rights' is just the pretext."
Yes, and it's now openly called "protecting profit". In Australia & US, at least, some animal rights groups are designated as "terrorist" on that basis.
But profit is also just a pretext for suppressing dissent of all kinds.... violently. That makes it fascistic.

Don't get me wrong; it's not that simplistic. Of course the UK is entirely responsible for its actions.
My point is that the US always aims to pursuade its 100+ client states to act in accordance with US imperial interests.
The carrots? Eg, in Australia, it's typically that Murdoch won't get you thrown out of leadership.
The sticks? The opposite (Whitlam, Hayden, Rudd, et al in Australia). Corbyn, etc.....
