Ryan Davey The #IMAConf25 was really informative, wasnt it. One of the debt options we discuss with our clients is ‘Do nothing’. A very valid debt option for many clients, for various reasons, as long as the consequences are discussed.

Independent experts today urged the UK 🇬🇧 not to ban the “direct action” group Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation under the Terrorism Act 2000. “Acts of protest that damage property, but are not intended to kill or injure people, should not be treated as #terrorism.”

The cop doesn't have a leg to stand on, & it's an open question whether they know & don't care or whether they're genuinely dumb. But it's the desired result of proscription: a general chilling effect on pro-Palestinian speech and protest, & uncertainty about what you can say.

“Ignoring debt collectors and avoiding repayment is a key way people resist the inequalities of debt – both refusing to make exploitative payments and subverting the notion they are personally to blame for their economic circumstances.” From Ryan Davey
