英国警方在英格兰西北部城市利物浦一场工党大会会场外,逮捕了50多名声援被禁组织“巴勒斯坦行动”的抗议者。当地默西塞德警方周日发表声明,证实了这些逮捕行动。
Police in the United Kingdom have arrested more than 50 people protesting in support of the banned Palestine Action group outside a Labour Party conference in the northwestern English city of Liverpool. The local Merseyside Police confirmed the arrests in a statement published on Sunday.
警方表示,此次抗议由“捍卫我们的陪审团”组织策划。在这场抗议中被捕的人展示了声援“巴勒斯坦行动”的材料。英国工党政府已于2025年7月依据《反恐法》将这个组织认定为“恐怖主义”组织并予以禁止。
The police said those taken into custody at the protest, organised by Defend Our Juries, had displayed material in support of Palestine Action, proscribed as a “terrorist” group by the Labour government in July 2025 under the Terrorism Act.
声明称,警方在维护治安和确保公众安全的同时,尊重公众依法抗议的权利。
According to the statement, police respected the rights of people to protest lawfully while aiming to keep the peace and ensure the public are safe.

半岛电视台驻利物浦记者米莱娜·韦塞利诺维奇表示,在安迪·伯纳姆所属政党的年度大会首日,抗议者希望将禁止该组织一事置于英国首相安迪·伯纳姆议程的核心位置。
After asking demonstrators if they were going to continue holding up the signs, officers led people away, telling them they had been arrested under the Terrorism Act. Reporting from Liverpool, Al Jazeera correspondent Milena Veselinovic said the protesters wanted to put proscription “front and centre of the UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s agenda” on the first day of his party’s annual conference.
一名抗议者告诉半岛电视台:“与加沙人民正在遭受的苦难相比,被捕根本算不了什么,而且这也是值得的,因为这关乎我们的言论自由。”

另一个人说:“有神职人员,有医护人员,还有人深切关怀他人,也深切关心是非对错。”英国大赦国际首席执行官凯里·莫斯科朱里表示,抗议是促使政府领导人倾听的“最有效手段之一”,并称这些逮捕是“对言论自由的无耻攻击”。
“Being arrested is nothing in comparison to what the people in Gaza are going through, and it’s also worth it, because this is about our right to free speech,” one protester told Al Jazeera. Another said that “there are priests, there are healthcare workers, there are people who deeply care, and deeply care about right and wrong.” Kerry Moscogiuri, chief executive of Amnesty International UK, said protesting “is one of the most effective tools” to make government leaders listen and described the arrests as “a truly shameful attack on freedom of speech”.
她说:“新任首相可以改革法律,让各个群体在聚集起来、就所关心的问题举行示威时受到保护。他会这样做吗?”

活动人士还在利物浦一家餐厅内拦住了外交大臣埃德·米利班德,要求解除对该组织的禁令,并公开认定以色列在加沙实施种族灭绝。据报道,米利班德拒绝置评后,活动人士离开了。
“The new prime minister can reform our laws so that communities are protected in coming together and demonstrating on the issues they care about. Will he do so?” she said. Activists also confronted Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband inside a restaurant in Liverpool, demanding that he lift the ban on the group and declare Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
自“巴勒斯坦行动”于2025年7月被宣布为非法组织以来,一场公民不服从运动已经兴起,超过3600人因表达对该组织的支持而被捕,他们举着的牌子上往往写着:“我反对种族灭绝。我支持‘巴勒斯坦行动’。”
The activists left after Miliband reportedly refused to comment. A civil disobedience campaign has emerged since Palestine Action was outlawed in July 2025, with more than 3,600 people arrested for showing their support for the group, often while holding signs reading, “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.”
