Palestine Action terror ban ruled unlawful by High Court
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Palestine Action's ban under terrorism legislation has been ruled unlawful by the High Court in a humiliating blow for the government, but the ban will remain in place until a further order by the courts. Huda Ammori, co-founder of the group, took the Home Office to court over the decision to proscribe Palestine Action under anti-terrorism laws, with her lawyers saying that the move was unprecedented. Since the proscription last July, thousands of people have been arrested for holding up placards in support of Palestine Action."
The Independent seeks donations to fund on-the-ground reporting across issues such as reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, and avoids paywalls so journalism remains available to all. The High Court ruled the proscription of Palestine Action unlawful and disproportionate, but the ban remains until a further court order. Huda Ammori challenged the Home Office's decision to proscribe the group under anti-terrorism laws. Since the proscription last July thousands have been arrested and hundreds of trials are expected, potentially affected by the court's ruling which highlighted significant interference with freedom of speech and assembly.
