This is what terrorism now looks like in the UK.
Yesterday, the Court of Appeal accepted the Government's appeal and ruled that the Home Secretary's proscription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation was lawful.
Amnesty International is deeply disappointed by this decision.
Treating direct action as terrorism is a dangerous misuse of counter-terrorism powers and has led to thousands of arrests of entirely peaceful protesters - something that will long be remembered as a deeply shameful chapter in our history.
The fight is far from over. We will continue to challenge the government's efforts to crack down on our right to protest and hold power to account.
🚨 BREAKING: Everyone who joined our NHS–Palantir campaign has now had a reply from NHS England's Data Protection Officer.
In writing, they confirmed:
▸ Palantir staff can access identifiable patient data before it's pseudonymised
▸ There is no opt-out from the Federated Data Platform
▸ Your Article 21 right to object has been formally refused
They've confirmed it. They won't change it.
Next step: a formal ICO complaint, citing their own response.
We're building a one-click escalation tool for campaign participants. Watch this space.
📱There's no such thing as a social media ban for under-16s
It means we will ALL face a “papers, please” demand to get online.
Holding platforms to account and giving parents the tools they need are the answer for child safety - not government-issued bans and digital ID checks for all.
I know I'm droning on about the social media ban - but I cannot believe the numbers on here believing it's to do with children's welfare. There are actual heartfelt debates about how the ban - only a lever for digital IDs - comes from a place of caring even a jot about children.
🚨Labour confirms ID requirement at device level - VPNs useless.🚨
By forcing Apple and Google to verify age at the device level during phone setup…
Keir Starmer’s government isn’t protecting kids — it’s building a surveillance infrastructure.
The OS itself will restrict platforms like TikTok, Instagram and X, making VPNs largely useless because the block happens before any traffic leaves your phone.
🚨Once every device carries a verified age profile, authorities gain an easy route to identify users through legal requests to tech firms.
This is digital ID by the back door, sold as child safety.
Classic Labour: expand state control first, ask questions later.

You mean like your AI and your mate Peter Thiel at Palantir? You try to present yourself as a 'man of the people' and 'campaigner for freedom' but anyone who has done a modicum of research knows what you really are and who you really answer to.
@Keir_Starmer What you're doing is totally transparent.
You're using "child safety" as an emotional crowbar to impose device-level digital ID infrastructure on the entire population.

@Keir_Starmer The British Left and the Right unite against one thing, your draconian totalitarian authority and shadow government. (Brough to you by Israel & Palantir)
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 Tulsi Gabbard has confirmed Putin’s claims that the US government is funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine.
The irony of UK Gestapo enforcing 'child safety', while the very tech exploits of their digital footprint most likely keeps them on a leash to their owners. British MPs are so obviously exploited by Pegasus and Israel.
This is what the UK spyware proposal means.
There must be government spyware on every mobile device. It shall watch everything that happens, including always watching the screen, looking for things the government disapproves of.
When anything is flagged by the software as something the government doesn't like, the software must block it from being sent or displayed (in realtime).
The user of the device must not be able to shut this watching and blocking off. The only way to shut it off would be to ask the government or its proxies to do so for you, at their discretion.
Therefore the whole device must be locked down. Administrator rights and the decision of what software or operating system to run or not to run must be taken from the owner/user and handed to the government and its proxies.
Apple and Google are themselves working hard to lock down the devices they are involved in to shut out competition and establish a duopoly.
The UK government says it is "working closely" with Apple and Google and currently they synchronise and coordinate their communication on this subject.
The UK government is now proposing to mandate what would otherwise be illegal anti-competitive practices.

Keir Starmer, wants us all to digitally verify ourselves to post anything on social media. So the government can check what we say and who we say it to.
Also Keir Starmer, uses disposable message on whatsapp so he can avoid scrutiny.
Spot anything?
