Home Secretary to proscribe Palestine Action

June 24, 2025

THE Home Secretary has decided to proscribe Palestine Action and will lay an order before Parliament next week to make membership and support for the protest group illegal.

Yvette Cooper confirmed the move after Palestine Action vandalised two planes inside RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire on Friday.

The incident is being investigated by counter-terror police.

The ban under terror laws will make it a criminal offence to belong to or support the group, and will be punishable by up to 14 years in prison.

A draft order will be laid in Parliament next Monday, and if approved after debates by MPs and peers, the ban could come into force by Friday.
