Defend Our Juries: It took almost 11 hours for the Met to clear over 300 dangerous, placard wielding, "terrorists" from the around the US Embassy
Posted: 2nd November 2026
Thank you to those of you who participated in and supported yet another incredibly powerful act of defiance on Saturday!
It took almost 11 hours for the Met to clear over 300 dangerous, placard wielding, “terrorists” from the around the US Embassy, despite warnings of pre-emptive arrests and there being a section 35 order (Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014) in place to disperse sitters and supporters. We still turned up defiantly in our numbers to sit in protest of the ban on Palestine Action and in staunch opposition to genocide.
At one point a bus named “Titan 1” turned up to take the would be criminals, four at a time, to police stations across London accompanied by bemused looking officers. They could have done with a Titan 2!
At least one state stooge was heard uttering the words “Just doing my job, mate” seemingly oblivious to the crimes of partaking in mass murder being perpetrated by the government and too busy slapping the cuffs on Ethel (83) as he ushered her and her zimmer frame on to the “terrorist bus”.
If you were arrested on Saturday and unable to give your details to Police Station Support on release please email: [email protected]

X/TwitterState Repression
Yet again the repeated, repressive intentions of the state were laid bare as many sign holders were given bail conditions not to “attend protests in support of Palestine”. At the same time a Home Office spokesperson stated to Sky News that “The proscription of Palestine Action does not affect lawful protest in support of the Palestinian cause.” These conditions are a major contravention of both our right to protest and Yvette Cooper’s original justification for proscription, which is still being regurgitated by the Home Office PR team a year later despite it being a lie.
Every “body” opposes genocide…
On Wednesday 4th and Thursday 5th November the Supreme Court finally meets to consider Huda’s appeal to lift the ban on Palestine Action and over the next few days, Defend Our Juries are circulating a one-sentence collective letter to the court, that simply reads: ‘We oppose genocide so we support Palestine Action, signed _’
Signatories include Jonathon Porritt and Sally Rooney
