A Buckinghamshire couple, Larry and Sue, were holding a sign in support of “Plasticine Action”, a subtle difference in spelling that changes the meaning entirely. “About eight policemen came and they read me my rights and said I was being arrested under the Terrorism Act and they were about to take me away so Isat on the floor. And when they were bending down to take me away one of them noticed that it says something else and they had to let me go.” During the interview with the Guardian, a police officer approached them. “Sir, can I take your sign please?” the officer said, before realising it did not express support for Palestine Action. “Im dyslexic!” she added. “Pm totally fed up with what is happening in Gaza,” said Larry. “Everybody that is not raising their voice to this is somehow slightly complicit in letting our government support this.”

Responding to Keir Starmer’s suggestion that the action should not go ahead, Defend Our Juries supporter Zoe Cohen, who was arrested at the August action and is Jewish, said: “Those who have used the attack on the Jewish community in Manchester to call for today’s vigil to be cancelled, are wrongly conflating the actions of the Israeli state with all Jews. Jewish people around the world are not responsible for Israel’s crimes and there are ‘many Jewish people who do not support the actions of the Israeli state. Cancelling today’s vigil would have perpetuated this dangerous narrative which fuels antisemitism.” She said if there was a strain on policing resources on Saturday, the blame lay with the government. If the protest had been cancelled, it would have been “Jetting terror win”. Cohen added: “When I was brought up learning about the Holocaust and we said ‘never again’, I learnt that this means ‘never again’ for anyone.”
