  3. Hype for the Future 65A: Cape Cod and Upper Barnstable County

    Disclaimer Because the Town of Provincetown is located at the tail end of Cape Cod and is a notable location for the LGBTQIA+ 🏳️‍🌈 community, Ptown requires a separate article on the blog. Therefore, this particular article will refer to the remainder of the area, especially north of Orleans along Route 6. Introduction The Towns of Truro and Wellfleet are typically considered the second and third towns up the Cape Cod Peninsula in Barnstable County, Massachusetts. If Provincetown […]

  4. Arrests made in #ParliamentSquare as pro-#PalestineAction protests held across #UK

    Dozens of #protesters assembled in central #London on Saturday afternoon

    "Fifty-five people have been arrested for displaying #placards in support of proscribed group Palestine Action, Met Police has said.

    "Demonstrations are taking place in cities including London, #Manchester, #Edinburgh, #Bristol and #Truro after the group was officially proscribed as a terrorist organisation two weeks ago.

    "Dozens of protesters assembled in Parliament Square on Saturday afternoon holding white placards that read: 'I oppose #genocide, I support Palestine Action.'

    "Some demonstrators were led away in handcuffs, while others were carried off by officers. In a post on X, the Metropolitan Police said: 'Officers have moved in and arrests are taking place.'

    "Police said the 55 people arrested were arrested under Section 13 of the #TerrorismAct 2000.

    "The Met had previously said around 70 people were arrested at similar protests in Parliament Square over the past two weekends.

    "#DefendOurJuries, the group coordinating the campaign, claims a total of 120 people have now been arrested across the UK.

    "The force warned that anyone expressing support for Palestine Action was likely to be arrested, adding that officers were also monitoring for chants such as 'death to the #IDF', led by punk-rap duo #BobVylan at #GlastonburyFestival.

    "The ban, under the #TerrorismAct2000, makes it a criminal offence to be a member of or show support for the group — with a maximum sentence of up to 14 years in prison. Wearing a badge or #TShirt bearing the group’s name now carries a potential six-month jail term.

    "Palestine Action co-founder #HudaAmmori is seeking to challenge the ban, with a hearing to determine whether a judicial review can proceed set to take place at the High Court on Monday."
