Fatema Rajwani was 21 years old. She broke equipment at a factory supplying drones to the Israeli military. She now carries the legal label “terrorist” for life - by a British state that calls selling weapons during Israel’s genocide of Gaza “security.”

Rob Del Naja from Massive Attack was bang on when he said the proscription of Palestine Action would "go down as one of the most shameful moments in British legal history." Now the fitting-up of the Filton 4 yesterday can be added to that as well.

We were honoured to be joined by Journalist & Activist, @the_andrey_x, at yesterday's peaceful signholding vigil. More than 100 people were arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding signs displaying the words "Saving lives is not terrorism - I support Palestine Action"

Several high-profile political figures have spoken out against the 'gut wrenching' sentencing of four Palestine Action activists under terror laws thenational.scot/news/261916…

Nearly 100 UK MPs and peers urge cancellation of Israeli settlement event The letter says 'Great Israeli Real Estate Event' in London is promoting sale of 'stolen Palestinian land'

We will once again hold these signs outside the Royal Courts of Justice on Monday June 15th during the ruling on the Home Office appeal relating to the unlawful proscription of Palestine Action. Saving Lives Is Not Terrorism. Go to defendourjuries.net/lift-the… to get involved.

Sir Jonathon Porritt MBE risked arrest under the Terrorism Act yesterday outside Woolwich Crown Court as the sentencing of four direct actionists was being determined. Met Police managed to arrest less than half of those holding the “offending” due to the sheer level of support.

No, they didn’t. One of them, Sam Corner, was found to have injured Sgt Evans without intent. There was no such accusation against any of the others. Kemi Badenoch committed contempt of court on live television during their trial.

"The judgment was handed down within minutes, indicating Judge Johnson had already made his mind up before the hearing had begun"

There are lots of people on here drinking the security services Kool Aid over the sentencing of the Filton Four. They believe the judge was right to overturn the jury's decision to convict four anti-genocide activists of criminal damage and make it a terrorism offence instead, overturning centuries of legal precedent. Why? Because, they claim, the four activists broke / smashed / shattered a police woman's spine. But that obviously can't be the explanation because three of the activists had nothing to do with that incident and yet they were convicted as terrorists by the judge anyway. Even Samuel Corner, the activist who was convicted over this incident (which left the police woman with a minor fracture, according to the medical authorities who testified), shouldn't have been sentenced as a terrorist for it because that is not what the jury, which heard the actual evidence, decided. The jury convicted Samuel Corner of grievous bodily harm *without intent*. The prosecution had charged him with GBH *with intent* because they needed that as his conviction to build a public mood in support of the proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation. If Corner could be presented as having entered Israel's Elbit weapons factory with intent to commit violence, then the implication would be that the other activists were in on that plan – a conspiracy – and the government would be off the hook of violating fundamental legal norms by proscribing Palestine Action. By stripping out intent, the jury pulled the rug from under the government's feet. Judge Johnson's task was put the rug firmly back in place by riding roughshod over the jury's decision and sentencing them as terrorists anyway. The timing couldn't be more convenient. On Monday, the Appeal Court will be deciding on the government's appeal against the High Court declaring its proscription of Palestine Action unlawful. If you're peddling the "But they smashed the back of a police woman" line you've been fed by the Daily Mail and BBC, it's because that is exactly what the government needs you spouting as it upends our age-old rights to jury trials, as it stamps out an honourable tradition of direct action dating back to the Suffragettes and before, and as it gives itself cover for continuing complicity in a genocide. Stop being a cuck. Don't fall for this psy-op.

There are no words to describe the shame that this is. The entire government and court system should be ashamed. In the decades and centuries to come this will be in history books as yet another disgraceful act of this government in defence of a genocidal entity.

Why it is Judge Johnson who should be in jail, not the Filton Four: jonathancook.substack.com/p/…

Imagine being charged & convicted of shoplifting & the judge sentences you as though you had committed armed robbery. #Filton4

Sentenced and imprisoned on grounds of “terrorism” that no jury ever convicted them of. Meanwhile, the British government continues to aid and abet the greatest crime of our time. A historic miscarriage of justice — and a truly dark day for civil liberties in this country.

The entire British legal profession should go on strike after the disgusting stitch-up of the Palestine Action court case. The whole justice system has been brought into disrepute by Justice Jeremy Johnson and whoever is behind him.

I have vulnerable clients relying on me, which is the only thing stopping me publicly setting fire to my practice certificate. The law, and the separation of powers, means nothing under this current regime.

John McDonnell, outside yesterday’s state-rigged Palestine Action court case: “All Fatema wanted to do was to just prevent the murder of children.” 🎯

The things killed for Israel list just keeps on growing: International law (dead) The meaning of the word terrorism (dead) British justice (dead)

If you were a juror on these cases you need to speak out as you were lied to by the state and you should demand a retrial and that the state be held in contempt of court along with the presiding judge!!
