UK Court of Appeal rules Palestine Action proscription lawful, enabling potential prosecutions of hundreds

Summary

The UK Court of Appeal has overturned a High Court ruling that declared the proscription of Palestine Action unlawful, reinstating the ban on the direct action group. This decision means over 3,000 people arrested under the Terrorism Act since the proscription, including more than 700 who have been charged, could now face prosecution. Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori has stated she will appeal to the Supreme Court, but prospects of the ban being quashed appear diminished.
