The 19 Palestine Action attacks the Government failed to stop
Nearly 20 Palestine Action attacks could have been prevented if the Government had proscribed them when it first considered doing so in March. The High Court heard on Friday that proscription was first considered three months before its activists broke into RAF Brize Norton and vandalised warplanes. Had the group been proscribed then, 19 criminal acts – including vandalism, trespass and theft – conducted by its activists since the beginning of March may have been prevented. Palestine Action admitted to all of the attacks on its website, publishing details, images and videos. The group is set to be proscribed after both Houses of Parliament backed the proposals. But it is challenging the decision at the High Court, having branded it an 'abuse of power'. March 4 2025 – University of Cambridge On March 4, Palestine Action activists sprayed the University of Cambridge 's Old Schools building with red paint. The group said the building was where the university's endowment fund was managed and demanded the institution end all investment in Israeli companies. March 8 2025 – Turnberry Golf Course Four days later, the group broke into Donald Trump's Turnberry golf course in Scotland and painted 'Gaza is not for sale' in 3 metre-high letters on its lawn. It was a response to an AI-generated video posted by the US president on social media about a hypothetical 'Trump Gaza' resort. March 10 2025 – Allianz On March 10, Palestine Action sprayed red paint at Allianz's City of London headquarters and displayed a banner declaring, 'Drop Elbit'. The group claims Allianz is the insurer of Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms company.

They claimed Aviva insures UAV Engines, a Staffordshire drone factory owned by Elbit.

The vandalism was the 17th time the group had targeted the company's premises in the city. March 17 2025 – Allianz Two days later, Palestine Action sprayed red paint at Allianz Trade's offices in Manchester city centre. This was done based on its claim that Allianz is involved in the provision of employers' liability insurance to Elbit.

UAV Tactical Systems is owned by Elbit. March 31 2025 – Dean Group On March 31, Palestine Action protesters occupied the rooftop of Dean Group in Irlam, Manchester. They claimed that it was a 'critical partner to the production of sniper sights at Elbit Systems' Instro Precision facility in Kent'. But this was denied by the company, which said it 'does not manufacture any goods for Israel'. April 7 2025 – Scottish Enterprise Palestine Action spray-painted the offices of Scottish Enterprise in Dundee, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Glenrothes, and London. It said the Scottish non-departmental public body had given grants to arms companies it claimed were linked to Israel's military.

This was another action against the insurance company, which it says insures Elbit.

May 17 2025 – Front Runner Logistics Three days later, Palestine Action sprayed red paint across Front Runner Logistics in Heathrow, west London, and disabled their vehicles after they were seen visiting Elbit's Bristol headquarters. The company later told the activists in an email that it would no longer work with Elbit in the future. May 29 2025 – Discovery Park Ltd Palestine Action smashed the windows and sprayed red paint on the offices of Discovery Park Ltd on May 29. The company owns the business park where Elbit's Instro Precision weapons factory is based in Kent.

The two accused face a number of charges DRUG CLAIMS Man and woman named in court over alleged £380,000 Glasgow drugs haul find A MAN and woman have appeared in court in connection with an alleged £380,000 drugs haul, we can reveal. John McCluskey, 36, and Melissa McMillan, 29, stood in the dock yesterday at Glasgow Sheriff Court after their arrest the day before. 1 The duo appeared in private at Glasgow Sheriff Court today. Credit: PA The two suspects, both of Glasgow, were charged after detectives executed warrants across four addresses in the city. Both faces two charges under the Misuse of drugs Act and one under the Children and Young Persons (Scotland) Act. Both made no plea, were committed for further examination and granted bail. We told how officers found an alleged quantity of cocaine with an estimated street value of £201,180, heroin worth £175,000, cannabis estimated to be worth £5340. They also reportedly uncovered suspected Etizolam tablets valued at £6000 from various properties. Detective Inspector Alan Ferguson said: 'Drugs cause misery in our communities and we are determined to disrupt the supply of illegal substances and trace those involved. 'This recovery across a number of addresses in Glasgow means a significant quantity of drugs will not end up on our streets and underlines our commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country's Serious Organised Crime Strategy.'
