So here’s the judge opening the door for appeal to the Supreme Court and ECHR: “But Baroness Carr added that it was "a fundamental mistake to overlook the fact that Palestine Action overtly promotes unlawful violence amounting to terrorism". "It is not - as claimed - a direct action civil disobedience protest group like the suffragettes, operating transparently in the open," she added. "It is a covert organisation which operates with secret cells to avoid the detection and prosecution of those using violence to destroy property and cause injury." The suffragettes absolutely meet the definition of a covert terrorist group. They engaged in arson and bomb attacks. Their most militant wing travelled around the country teaching women how to make bombs and set arson fires. “We [Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr] would feel uneasy at the fact that their [the Suffragettes ] actions killed at least four people and caused injuries to many others. We [Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr] might be stunned, even shocked, to learn that they [the Suffragettes] detonated a bomb at Westminster Abbey which damaged the Coronation Chair and (potentially) broke the Stone of Destiny. Or when we [Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr] learn that they [the Suffragettes ] attempted to blow up a reservoir and flood villages in Upper Windleden, or detonated a bomb at Holloway Prison that covered sleeping children in shards of glass, or bombed schools, or threw bombs onto crowded train carriages and tube station platforms, or tried to burn down the tennis club house at Wimbledon, or bombed a Dublin theatre while the audience were still inside, or burnt down Kew Garden’s tea pavilion or planted a bomb that was powerful enough to destroy an entire building with 200 people inside – when we learn all of this, our ideas about the Suffragettes might shift.“ Clearly Lady Chief Justice Baroness Carr was drawing on a shockingly ignorant view of the history of direct action in the UK. https://eghammuseum.org/terrorists-the-suffragette-arson-and-bombing-campaign/ Palestine Action ban is lawful, Court of Appeal rulesThe Home Office had challenged a High Court ruling that the group's proscription should be quashed.
