They already arrest people for showing support for Palestine Action, which is why you get the unedifying spectacle of cops carrying little old ladies into vans and carting them off.

Maybe don't attack your country's military bases [0] and the defense supply chain used to support Ukraine [1].
If Palestine Action didn't attack RAF Brize Norton they wouldn't have been proscribed.
There is a big difference between activism and directly harming national security interests.

  Well the UK military is being used to support Israel so, fair game. This isn't about the people who did that though, it's a direct attack on freedom of speech. These people are literally about to be arrested for saying the "wrong thing".

    Nah, they're more like neonazis.
