This adds another layer of farce to the whole thing.
Remember, the proscription places Palestine Action in the same bucket as Al-Qaeda. Imagine if the Welsh children’s laureate donated their royalties to another author in solidarity with their support for Al -Qaeda. We would be reassessing that laureateship at the very least. But nothing like that will happen, because the proscription of PA is ridiculous, and everyone knows it.We don’t have a spectrum. PA fit the bill for proscription.
We don’t have a spectrum
We do. Because, as implied above, PA are not as bad as Al-Qaeda. For example.
Show me, where does this exist?
The fact that the Welsh children’s laureate isn’t being questioned by police as she would if this were about an actual terrorist organisation is the evidence. I thought that was already obvious.
Show me where the UK government defines terrorism based on levels, a spectrum.
You are moving the goalposts. These authors will be treated differently to authors who support Al-Qaeda. Therefore there is a spectrum, or, at least, an uneven application of the law, in practice.
