One year ago today, the Government proscribed the direct action protest group Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation.
Since then, over 3,300 arrests have been made of people holding placards.

We cannot challenge injustice and uphold our own rights if we cannot come together to protest. We cannot allow the government to take that right away.
