But They Haven’t Arrested Me. Yet.
On Monday 15 July, I walked into a police station and handed myself in.
I did it calmly, peacefully, and with absolute clarity.
I told them who I was.
I told them I support Palestine Action.
I told them I’ve encouraged others to do the same.
I handed them a printed declaration confirming all of it —
and I made clear that I understood the legal risk,
including the Terrorism Act’s potential 14-year sentence for “encouragement.”
They took my ID. They took my declaration. They took my phone number.
And then… they let me go.
No caution. No arrest. No interview under caution.
Nothing.
At first glance, it might look like a small win.
But thanks to Craig Murray, we now know exactly why this happened.
🕰️ The State Is Playing for Time
“The state is holding off charging people with terrorism offences for supporting Palestine Action until after the application for judicial review is heard from 21 July. So they can claim there is no serious effect on civil liberties.”
— @CraigMurrayOrg
In other words: the UK government is deliberately delaying arrests and stalling prosecutions
so it can stand in court and pretend everything is fine.
That no one’s been harmed.
That no chilling effect exists.
That no journalists, priests, pensioners, or protestors have been terrorised by this law.
But I’ve got news for them:
Silence isn’t the absence of harm.
It’s the evidence of it.
📜 What I Said — And Why It Matters
When I was finally seen by an officer, I told them this:
The United Nations was created after the Second World War to prevent genocide.
In the past few months, the UN has made repeated calls for the UK to stop its complicity in genocide —
to shut down weapons factories,
to end diplomatic cover for Israel,
and to criminalise arms profiteering.
The UK’s response?
To criminalise those of us who are actually trying to do that.
I told them my conscience cannot accept that.
That I will not let this government criminalise morality.
That if this law stands, history will remember every name and badge number that enforced it.

⚠️ The Next Move Is Theirs — But the Moment Is Ours
If they arrest me next week, they confirm everything I’ve said.
They’ll no longer be able to pretend this law is harmless.
They’ll no longer be able to stand in court and claim “no serious effect.”
I walked in before July 21 because I knew this was coming.
And if they come for me afterwards — it’s political. Not legal.
🔥 But Let Me Be Clear
I still support Palestine Action.
I still oppose genocide.
And no law, no police force, and no delay tactic will ever convince me that doing so is wrong.
This is what conscience looks like.
This is what resistance looks like.
You can’t arrest what’s everywhere.
But if they try — you’ll know it wasn’t about terrorism.
It was about fear.
