The UK Supreme Court says it will consider an appeal by Palestine Action against the government’s decision to ban the group under anti-terrorism legislation. The case follows a series of rulings in lower courts. In February, the High Court ruled that the proscription unlawfully interfered with freedom of expression, challenging the basis on which the government had outlawed the group. In June, the Court of Appeal reversed that finding, saying the ban was lawful, including on the grounds that the group’s activities involved support for violence. The Supreme Court’s decision to hear the appeal means it will review the legality of the ban in light of those earlier judgments. The matter is set against the UK’s use of terrorism proscription powers and the question of how such measures relate to rights to free expression. The Supreme Court’s review focuses on whether the government’s action complies with legal standards applied by the courts.
