In Scotland, over 20 protestors have been charged under section 13 of the Terrorism Act for wearing a t-shirt/holding a sign with the words ‘Genocide in Palestine Time to Take Action’.
An internal Counter Terrorism Policing document obtained by Declassified says that the ‘CPS [Crown Prosecution Service] have taken the view that this particular sign does NOT arouse reasonable suspicion that the displayer is a member or supporter of a proscribed organisation’.
Their reasoning is as follows:
‘It could be argued that the prominent words of the sign are the words “Palestine” and “Action” this is because the text/font is far larger than the other words used on the sign. However, it is a cleverly crafted sign. Equally it could be argued that the sign is one of political commentary. Factually the sign contains two statements, which separately refers to ‘Palestine’ the Country and ‘Action’ the verb.’
