Trial and terror: What actually happens when a group is 'proscribed'?
Jul 03, 2025•27 min•Season 1Ep. 1596
Episode description
After years of direct action and controversial tactics by Palestine Action, the Home Secretary is moving to proscribe the campaign group under anti-terror laws. But is that a crackdown on extremism or political theatre?
Today in The Bunker, Gavin Esler is joined by Professor Lee Jarvis, expert in international politics and terrorism at Loughborough University, to unpack what it really means to be proscribed - and what’s it means for protest in Britain.
