It seems to me that this dissent into authoritarianism could easily have been avoided if the UK government wasn't so intent on clamping down on protests that spoke up against the UK government's involvement in arms trade with Israel. The only thing Palestine Action did was take protest action against weapons manufacturers in the UK and bases of the RAF, to highlight the UK government involvement in weapons sales to Israel. It seems to me the only people committing acts of Terrorism is the UK government. Time and time again we find out that consecutive UK governments are involved in arms sales and manufacture, with weapons and planes getting sent around the world. Civil Disobedience getting classed as "Terrorism" has become a parody of a government arresting people for the very thing they are doing. Red paint was spray painted to symbolise the government having:
"Blood on their hands".
