More than 20 people have been arrested on suspicion of terror offences at a Palestine Action protest, hours after the group were officially proscribed by the government.
A mass of Metropolitan Police officers circled dozens of protesters standing silently beneath the statue of Mahatma Gandhi in Parliament Square. Labour MP Clive Lewis pointed to the location of the arrests and the fact that those arrested included “a priest, a professor, medics”. “This is not about terrorism. It’s about silencing dissent – and it’s leading us down an ever-darkening path,” Mr Lewis wrote on X (Twitter).
The protesters were holding placards that said: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”
The designation as a terror group means that membership of or support for Palestine Action is a criminal offence punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
The protest started at about 1.10pm and officers were seen taking people away shortly after 1.30pm.
An elderly woman in a dog collar, who was sitting in a camp chair with one of the placards at her feet, appeared to be taken away by officers.
A woman seen lying on the floor in handcuffs was carried away in the air by officers and put in a police van.
While suspended and flanked by a large group of police, she said calmly: “Free Palestine, stop the genocide, I oppose genocide, I support the rights of the Palestinian people, I support freedom of speech, I support freedom of assembly.”
A mass of people crowded around to film the scene.
Officers placed her in the vehicle parked on the road behind the square before returning to the Mahatma Gandhi statue, where almost no protesters remained.
Chants of “shame” broke out, directed at the police, and officers moved behind the Gandhi statue.
