Starmer now wanting the protest group Palestine Action to be classed as a Terrorist Organisation. FFS. The same man who backs the daily murder of innocent Palestinians in Gaza. The man who backs a terrorist attack on a sovereign country. Spray painting planes in red paint is not terror. Forgive me. Maybe I'm going insane. How does that even come close to 'terror'? FFS RESIGN YOU ABSOLUTE USELESS PRICK! (Sorry, It has to be said)

Exactly. But thankfully a protest group armed with paint. About as terrifying as a Rupert Bear adventure.
I'm not so sure, Cat. I was quite spooked by this Rupert Bear book cover when I was a kid.

A Harvard University report estimates there are over 377,000 Palestinians missing (dead?).
I cannot understand how Israelis voted for and support the mass murderer Netanyahu.
No good can come from it. No good for Israel can come of it.
Proclaiming Palestine Action as a terrorist group is ludicrous.
Prosecute them for damage by all means.
It's like saying the incredibly annoying Climate Action who caused huge traffic jams by staging sit downs on highways are "terrorists". Annoying yes. Should be prosecuted- yes.
I really hated Margaret Thatcher for her policies. I absolutely loathe Starmer even more.
Spray painting something hardly seems terrorism, but they had apparently spray painted the engines, so perhaps that might have caused more damage than simple defacement?
Amnesty International is critical and Nigel Farage in favour.
... But Amnesty International UK said it was "deeply concerned at the use of counter terrorism powers to target protest groups."
"Terrorism powers should never have been used to aggravate criminal charges against Palestine Action activists and they certainly shouldn't be used to ban them," it wrote on social media. ...
...The group's actions sparked outrage among some MPs, with Reform UK leader Nigel Farage and shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick calling for the group to be banned....
The Royal Air Force is in the shitter Jo. You have to watch Fast Jet Performance on YT. He is ranty but he knows know from personal experience about the RAF.
He has said for years the RAF is cash strapped, losing cadets and the best are leaving.
