Amnesty International called the mass arrests “deeply concerning”.

“The protesters in Parliament Square were not inciting violence and it is entirely disproportionate to the point of absurdity to be treating them as terrorists,” said Sacha Deshmukh, the organisation’s chief executive.

“We have long criticised UK terrorism law for being excessively broad and vaguely worded and a threat to freedom of expression. These arrests demonstrate that our concerns were justified.”

    How dare they be against war crimes and crimes against humanity, the worst ones by far of our current century. Anyone opposing genocide is a terrorist and should be locked up.

    For fuck sake… Make me wake up from this fucking nightmare.
