Taking Nottinghamshire Police to court

On Monday we submitted all the necessary documents to our solicitor to open our case against Nottinghamshire Police. We are taking them to court for unlawful arrest. We will not sit back and allow Nottinghamshire Police to criminalise solidarity with Palestine. Zionism Is Racism; we have a right to say so; and we will not be intimidated!

 Keep an eye out for progress on the case.

Victory! Investigation dropped

We have received confirmation that Nottinghamshire Police are dropping their investigation against Daniel!

Daniel was the only black person on the protest, and the only one to be targeted. This wrongful and racist arrest must be put into the context of the ongoing campaign to criminalise opposition to Zionism (a form of racism) – both in Palestine itself, and in Britain especially following the adoption of the IHRA (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) definition of antisemitism. An example of ‘anti-semitism’ under the IHRA is the statement that ‘Israel is a racist endeavour’.
