God damn UK, a country that cares more about Israel's right to do genocide in peace than its people well being.

They care about the donations from Israel is what they care about.

What I don’t understand is why people are choosing to die on this hill. Supporting Palestine Action isn’t the only way to support Palestine, and if they’ve been essentially disbanded by the proscription (bank accounts frozen etc) then it isn’t even an effective way to give support in any meaningful sense. The banner “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine.” would be legal, and arguably more effective than the longer one because (in theory at least) it should be unopposed by law.
A quick search for “how to support palestine uk” found these pages among many others:

It highlights the hypocrisy at the centre of the UKs policy towards Israel. The hand wringing and pledges to make a hollow gesture if Israel don’t stop murdering babies in 6 months time. All the while using British military equipment and personnel to observe the genocide for Israel and selling Israel the bombs and bullets to do it.
