Is this an American thing? On my gas stove, the front left is rapid boil, front right is simmer, and the back two are normal.

Yeah, I guess you could protest the general concept without mentioning Palestine Action, but as soon as it's about Palestine Action, it would become illegal.

These people are protesting about the genocide, but also protesting against the proscribing of Palestine Action, and shining a spotlight on the draconian laws which means that the government can proscribe any organisation they don't like, and arrest everyone who shows vague support for them.

They know they will get arrested doing this, but there's no legal way of protesting the proscribing.

The original Life Is Strange menu music is lovely too.

Wetherspoons is against British values; it's not right to make people queue at a bar!

This is how it works in real Britain - you find a free space at the bar, and try to look at the barkeep until they ignore you and serve someone else who came after you. Then it's a 50-50 chance whether they point at you and say "they were here before me".

It's insane - I don't give unrestricted internet access (certainly no social media) to my 9 year old, let alone a 6 year old!

Parent education is needed badly!

Fair enough, I wouldn't disagree that it wasn't the worstn't way to word it.

I don't disagree that it wasn't a reasonable protest and those responsible should be prosecuted for the criminal damage etc... but to list them as a terrorist group because of one non-terrorising action is a tad ridiculous, counter-intuitive, and the optics for the government are terrible.
