Hunger strikers must be freed from jail now

BRITAIN has political prisoners - 29 political activists who were part of Palestine Action have been in prison on remand for more than 18 months.

- 

They have pleaded 'not guilty' to various charges, including aggravated burglary and criminal damage, allegations the law says cannot lead to remand for more than six months. They've been incarcerated without proof of guilt for three-times the maximum period in law.

The Police say they may pursue charges of terrorism, but no such charges have been laid. Four protesters were arrested at the RAF Brize Norton military airbase on June 20 for using red paint and crowbars to spray-paint the engines of two Voyager jets used for air-to-air refuelling. The planes were seen ready for operation three days later, the damage having been superficial. The four, all between the ages of 22 and 35, are charged with conspiracy to commit criminal damage - not terrorism.

Why were these protests happening? The protesters, alongside millions of us across Britain, are witnessing the destruction of Gaza and the armed eradication of Palestine. We are protesting to stop the Genocide as identified by the United Nations International Courts and the majority of countries across the world.
