Protesters backing Palestine Action vow escalation' in campaign amid crackdown
"A protest group campaigning against the proscription of Palestine Action as a terror organisation has promised civil disobedience in key cities and towns across Britain after the home secretary announced police would be given greater powers to restrict demonstrations. Defend Our Juries (DOJ) warned of a major escalation in its campaign after Shabana Mahmood's announcement on Sunday, which followed a protest held by the group on Saturday, when there were almost 500 arrests."
"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."
Defend Our Juries (DOJ) has promised major civil disobedience across British cities and towns after the home secretary announced expanded police powers to control demonstrations. The announcement followed a large protest that produced almost 500 arrests. The home secretary said officers may consider the cumulative impact of repeated demonstrations and cited fear among the Jewish community from repeated large-scale protests. DOJ plans to escalate its campaign to lift the proscription of Palestine Action ahead of a Judicial Review hearing scheduled for 25 to 27 November. DOJ said planned civil disobedience will run between 18 and 29 November.
