So as good as their word, after 18 people protested outside New Scotland Yard with placards reading 'I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action' they have all been arrested by the Metropolitan Police.

They will now of course find themselves in a sort of legal limbo as charges will be dropped (indeed rendered null & void) if the appeal by the Govt. fails to overturn the judgement that the proscription of Palestine Action was itself illegal.

@ChrisMayLA6 I was there when it happened. The police let them sit there for quite a while until the arrests began. Most of the people were carried away in handcuffs to waiting police vans. Some were dragged.

@ChrisMayLA6 I think we should all be retracting our recognition of Isreal as a state. Then maybe they can work their problems out. I do have a plan but an imposed solution won't work.
