Labour Delayed Palestine Action Ban Over Riot Concerns
Government reportedly held off on ban fearing unrest
The Labour government is reported to have delayed plans to ban the activist group Palestine Action due to fears that such a move could provoke riots and mass protests.
Officials were concerned that an immediate crackdown could escalate tensions on the streets and fuel accusations of political suppression.
The delay has drawn criticism from some who argue the group’s actions warrant stronger legal consequences.
