Freedom of speech has been abandoned in the UK. You have to be very careful what you say.
There are certain phrases that will land you in jail.

@peterlee I'm not in the uk but I asked chatgpt about this and got:
The proscription makes it illegal to support Palestine Action, but “support” has a specific meaning in UK terrorism law. It generally includes:
Encouraging others to support or join the group
Fundraising or providing resources for them
Organising actions or public demonstrations on their behalf
✅ What is NOT illegal
➡ Expressing your opinion that you disagree with the UK’s decision to label them as terrorists.
➡ Criticising the government’s decision publicly or online.
➡ Saying you think Palestine Action is peaceful and should not be banned.
❌ What IS risky
➡ Statements that could be interpreted as encouraging people to join, assist, or take direct action with Palestine Action.
➡ Publicly displaying their symbols or logos in protest settings, as recent arrests show (Guardian report).
➡ Fundraising or organising events for them

@SatanBurger All I can say is that not everyone in England supports the actions of the Israeli government in the Gaza Strip.
