Palestine Action Can Appeal Terror Ban at Supreme Court The UK government's relentless pursuit of Palestine Action has reached a new milestone: the group can appeal its terror ban at the Supreme Court, setting up a showdown between free speech advocates and those who would seek to silence them.
This development comes as no surprise given the Home Office's dogged determination to restrict dissenting voices on matters of national security.
The saga began in July 2025 when then home secretary Yvette Cooper proscribed Palestine Action under terrorism laws, making membership or support for the group a criminal offence punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
